My day actually starts the night before, when I set 5-10 alarms on my iPhone with snooze off in increasing 5-minute intervals starting at around 6:00am. I'll usually put my phone far from my bed so that I don't shut the alarm and go back to bed in the morning, but what that ends up doing is causing me to get really bored after 15 minutes of failing to fall asleep, and so I usually will go back and use my phone and check social media until I can fall asleep. That accomplishes two things:
1) The exposure to the bright screen before bed causes my body to produce less melatonin, keeping me awake (or at least that's what some article I read online says), and
2) I end up falling asleep with my phone in my bed, which I can easily turn off in the morning when it rings without even knowing.
And since snooze is off, the end result is that I end up waking up about 15 minutes before my 8:00am class. In that time, I manage to shower, get dressed, make coffee, half-finish a bowl of cereal, fill my water bottle with icewater, check email, and go over my day while listening to music walking to class. After class, I'll grab a bagel and eat it on the way to the library, where I will most likely pass out for a couple hours before my next class. At that point, I will really need another coffee, but I know it's too late in the day and that if I do I probably won't be able to sleep, so I just check my email until I find something to do. After realizing that checking my email every 15 minutes is not an effective use of my time, I'll finally sit down and study/do homework for a couple hours until I feel satisfied with myself. Then the cycle repeats itself.
