In the morning if my face is a little puffy I'll put on an ice pack while doing stomach crunches. I can do 1000 now. After I remove the ice pack I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser, then a honey almond body scrub, and on the face an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

I have a morning ritual that I need to share. I call it "the terminator". First I crouch down in the shower in the classic "naked terminator traveling through time" pose. With my eyes closed I crouch there for a minute, visualizing either Arnold or the guy from the second movie (not the chick in the third one because that one sucked) and I start to hum the terminator theme. Then I slowly rise to a standing position and open my eyes. It helps me to proceed through my day as an emotionless, cyborg badass. The only problem is if the shower curtain sticks to my terminator leg. It ruins the fantasy.

I wake up, eat breakfast, get dressed, and go to school. If there's no school, then I'm not up in the morning. ____________________

I need to make my own wake up alarm. I'm thinking of just taking the first few seconds of Running With the Devil, the bass line, and make it into one small file. Then just put it on repeat.

I try to fit as much of getting ready for college as possible into one small space of time. So basically, the second I hear my alarm start I throw myself out of my bed, and as I move towards my alarm I usually get a shirt on, sometimes part of my jeans, and then grab anything that looks like it's necessary and stick it in my pockets. Not the greatest technique, sometimes for no reason I'll have a phone charger on me, but no pen, money, or books.

Also, I've found a solution to the strain of regular hygiene.

Every 5 days, when you wake up, do the following:

1. grab anything that sprays. as long as it makes a smell and isn't toxic, it's probably better than your sweat.
2. if something you're wearing is noticably stained or dirty, wear something over it. chances are, the stain will become less obvious due to large amounts of sweat spreading it's surface area.
3. instead of washing your hair, wear a hat. that way no-one can see flakes or grease, and it makes you seem slightly fashionable.
4. a sleeve works just as well as a toothbrush.

You should ONLY wash if there is nothing anywhere in your house that is gonna cover up whatever smell and/or stain on you, and even then you don't need to do it that well.

My alarm..a solid siren of a buzzer..it really is a bitch. I roll over and turn that off at 5:50 AM. I get up, get my clothes, take my morning shower and get all nice and clean and smelling good. I get out, get dressed and brush my teeth next. Morning breath is quite the bother as well. You know it's bad when you can smell your own breath..

After, I get online and do whatever I want to while I wait for my ride to get here. I do emails and such in the morning.

Not much of a ritual..but it works. I just hate when I fall back asleep and wake up around 6:10 because it throws the ritual off a tad and I have to rush through emails.

Worst thing, once I woke up at 6:43..which is 7 minutes until my ride gets here...I took a shower in under a minute....that's no fun..

Oh yeah..I don't do my hair at all..I just let it go after the shower not just because of lazyness..but it turns out just fine after a shower.

Luckily for me, I have an internal alarm clock, so I don't have to wake up to crazy-loud music that induces involuntary shit movements. Which is nice, because very time I wake up, I just blast a giant rug-ripper. It'd be nice to be able to fart and not have any shit in reserve. Anyway, I get up, take my dog out to go piss/shit, then give her food. I then rest for a while before I go to work. I have an evening fluctuating shift.

As for food, there's really no ritual. I eat whatever I feel like eating.

I reluctantly wake up within 10 minutes of the alarm clock ringing, put on whatever comes out first when I grab into my cupboard, stumble into the kitchen, eat a yoghurt or cereal, stumble back into the bathroom, sloppily brush my teeth, put some water in my face and leave home in a hurry to get to school in time, where I'll spend the first two or three lessons catching up sleep.

I wake up between 5 and 5:30 AM, shower if I have time, eat breakfast, and then leave. Contrary to what you're thinking right now, I feel perfectly awake during school.

I've set the computer to wake itself up at 6AM and start playing "Kung-Fu Fighting" via iTunes.
I wake up, get something to eat, wash my hands, go to the computer until 7:50.
Then I go to work.

Wake up
Notice i'm late for school
Run

...actually, it's more of a combination of shower+putting on clothes+some computer time if there's time left+breakfast.

I have a tendency to skip breakfast. I always wind up having a little brunch in a lecture pause. :/

When I really need to wake up I use Baby's First Coffin by The Dillinger Escape Plan. Make the song start from the beginning as soon as my alarm goes off.

The first time I did that I seriously thought I was going to die. I honestly thought I was in a warzone or something.
