I'm gonna tape a cell phone to my hand that has an alarm (on vibrate) set at 3 AM cause I need to wake up at that time, but I dont want to wake up the house. Think It'll wake me up? Are there any methods of waking up in a way that wont wake up anyone else (I don't have headphones so this is not an option). Sorry if my post seems a bit confusing, im very tired which is why i need all the sleep i can get (normally I'd just stay up till 3).

So you plan on getting how much sleep? If it's less than 5 hours you'll probably be more tired.

I've been waking up to my vibrating cell phone every morning at 6:30am for the last 6 months.
I keep it on the night stand next to my bed.

Also, set multiple alarms, a minute apart
3:00 am
3:01 am
3:02 am

This may sound strange, but at the back of your mind, if you ignore the first one, you know there's another coming right away. It works for me

That certainly wouldn't work for me, but I'm a deep sleeper and I have anxiety about sleeping in.

No way in hell.

I voted hot sauce BTW.

Should have added an option for sweet red wine or warm french bread.

Set it on a desk and it will wake you quicker than a gunshot to the head.

Ok, maybe a bad analogy, but when I left my phone on vibrate accidentally instead of ringing, I woke up quicker than I ever have. Those suckers are loud! Put it on a hard surface.
