I set my alarm one hour earlier than I have to and then I have an hour to wake up or rest before my second alarm goes off.

I've just always been able to get up when I need to even when it's early as fuck, but if it's a day that I know I don't have to be up then I can't convince myself to wake up earlier than 9.
The days my roommate has earlier classes than me i tell him to wake me up before he leaves.
The days i've got the early classes i'm motivated by the fact i'm almost failing biology so the only way to maintain a passing grade is to actually get up for that class. Usually this is accomplished by setting an alarm an hour before i have to get up and then have the repeat every ten minutes until i get up. Usually it's pretty quickly though because... grades are a good motivator.

My wake-up alarm sound has both been the Enterprise "Red Alert" sound and various Samsung phone alarm tones. I find the most obnoxious one, set to it's loudest possible setting and put it as close as possible...but as far as possible so I actually have to get out of bed to switch it off. I also have the central heating come on about 30 minutes beforehand, as I simply do not get out of bed into the cold. No. Just no.
Two alarms that wake me up at 5:30 in the morning so that I can get ready for teaching an 8:00 am recitation on Tuesdays and every other Thursday. One of those alarms is an app on my laptop simply called "Alarm Clock 2". I set an alarm for those days of the week, and it plays this from my iTunes:
i use might of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ov9cmbpP55w] the empire [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ] from RA3 and set it for 20 minutes before i need to get up its an epic song but you dont want it going off at full volume at 0600 and i am not a morning person so the 10 min snooze gets a bit of a work out
Simple, a few weeks ago I set my phone to play the following song when I need to get up at the highest possible volume:
I have not overslept since.

I get myself up in the morning...
If you get my drift.
Ok I I'm joking, I'm easy to get up in the morning...all I need is a splash of water on my face.

It's almost all been said or at least mentioned before, so...

Grow the melonfarm up. Your dad meant well, but what he did was spoil you like the 11-year old puppy dog that still shits on the carpet when you annoy it by looking at it or dare to talk to someone else without begging for the dog's consent beforehand.
Take responsibility for yourself, and if you're too lazy to think of solutions yourself, try out the suggestions handed to you in this thread. One by one, as they're pretty much all valid.
I'd leave the live bomb for last, though, as it's probably against campus policy to wire explosives to an electrical device.

Ok, so I read on Icanhazcheeseburger that one guy bought or made this alarm that wouldn't stop ringing the most ear piercing shrill sound imaginable until it was assembled again. It would break apart and you'd have to assemble it to be able to turn it off. He kept it inside a double locked container or something and he kept the key to open that under one of those hidden key rock things next out in his yard. Maybe way out in his yard. Like the mailbox.
What is this thing called morning and can it hurt me?
Seriously? Water. that is the only effective strategy. Nothing else works, at least immediately.

I get up on the odd chance the citizens of the world have finally come to their senses and decided to elect me supreme overlord of everything. Should such a case happen, I wouldn't want it to happen while I'm sleeping though since I don't want my first action as supreme overlord of everything to be the slaughter of whoever woke me up.
Beyond routine? I don't know. It's kinda annoying actually, cause often times I wake up before my alarm goes off or wake up when I don't need to.
