Dreaming
This morning, like every other morning, I was completely successful in incorporating the sound of the alarm clock into my current dream. I find it amazing that my mind is able to instantly and seamlessly integrate the sound of the alarm with whatever I happen to be dreaming. And it seems like the dream goes on for a while, although in reality, I’m up within a couple of seconds of hearing the alarm. It’s amazing how our mind can trick us in dreams. Or is it just me?

I often have the same thing happen to me. It's almost as if my sleep segues perfectly into the day.
Must be all the hot chocolate I've been drinking lately.
I used to be that way in college, but since I started teaching middle school, I end up waking up with the alarm or before it. Pavlov's dog and all that.
No, it's not just you, it happens to me frequently as well. I used to have a telephone that doubled as an alarm clock and the alarm tune was "Happy Birthday" (strange, I know, I didn't understand it either). I ended up dreaming many strange dreams where "Happy Birthday to you..." popped up unexpectedly in random and unexpected situations.
Hehe..I also do that, infact I can accomodate most noises to suit my dreams!
I used to have a radio / cd alarm clock and would occasionally do the same thing which was odd as I usually had loud hardcore dance music in the cd player in hopes that it would wake me up.
It happens to me all the time. It's particularly creepy during my "spy action hero" type dreams that I get going sometimes (hey, I'm a guy - what am I gonna do?). Good work, keep it up.
