When sleeping, do you prefer the clock to go fast or slow?

When I am sleeping, I always hate it when hours go by like minutes. But when the minutes go by like hours, it's awesome.

For example:

Something wakes you up at 5 in the morning, you look at the clock and fall back asleep. In what seems like only a few minutes, your alarm clock wakes you up at 7. This is what I consider to be a fast clock.

But, if you wake up at 5 in the morning, fall back asleep, and in what seems like an hour you look at the clock and only 15 minutes has gone by... this is a slow clock..

So, what do you consider to be an awesome nights sleep?

Neither. I perfer not to wake up during the night. Thus, this question doesn't apply.

I don't wake up in the middle of the night unless I'm thirsty or have to piss, so it really doesn't make a difference.

Whenever a fast clock happens it is when I want a slow clock (ie. right before you get up for work when tired). And I get a slow clock when I have trouble sleeping or I want tomorrow to come because something good is gonna happen.

So you can realize how much freakin' time you waste sleeping?

Imagine what you could do with an extra 7+hours a day

Nothing beats a slow clock. I wake up frequently and the closer it gets to my wake up time, the more I keep wishing time would slow to a crawl.
