If you say that you have never used an alarm that would be a lie. Every one of us has used an alarm before. Most people use alarms to wake up for school or work. Alarm is a clock that is designed to alert an individual or group of people at a specified time. There are a lot of different alarms: digital alarm, phone alarm, and tradition clock alarm. My mom has been waking me up for school every day until high school. The first couple days in high school my mother would still wake me up for school, but one day she didn't. I woke up late and had to rush myself to get to school on time. Since that day, I knew that I had to rely on myself to wake up for school. I would set up an alarm every night before going to sleep. My phone alarm is one of the most important things for me. Without my phone alarm I would be late for everything: school, work, my soccer practice and trips. Waking up to just some boring music and not my mothers sweet words and kisses was hard for a fourteen year old me. But I know that one day my mom will stop waking me up in the mornings and I will need to grow up and be more mature, I just didn’t think it would happen so fast. So, if someone you love still wakes you up in the morning, appreciate it until it's too late.
