I appear to have this software built into my brain. I will quite often wake up before my alarm, sometimes as much as an hour, but most often as little as 1-5 minutes. And it does tend to run in cycles, with me waking up ~30 minutes for a few days in a row and then going back to waking just before the alarm.
Only when I'm really tired, or had trouble sleeping, does the alarm wake me up.
Most of the people I know use their snooze button, though. I've always thought that a really bad idea, but couldn't really say why since I wake up ready to go, and not drowsy. (I don't drink caffeine very often, and I've always been a morning person.) Wouldn't you be defeating this device if you just hit 'snooze' and went back to bed for the remaining time?
