Read this soliloquy written by Colleen Myers

To snooze or not to snooze - that is the question:

Whether 'tis easier to rise on time

And face the harsh light of early day,

Or to stay huddled under the quilt,

And, by hiding, avoid the rays.

To rise, to hit the snooze button-

No more - and by rising to say I face

The early-morning preparations for the events

That each day holds-

'Tis a situation

I do not wish to face.

To snooze, to sleep-

To sleep, perhaps too long. Ay, there's the problem,

For in oversleeping what events may come about

When we are hiding from the alarm's harsh call

Must make us stop and think. That's the idea

That makes disaster of sleeping in.

For who really wants to face the 6 a.m sun,

The first period's quiz,

The morning person's obnoxious cheeriness,

The disappointment in decaffeinated coffee,

The dance class's early rehearsals,

The overly chipper song of the early bird,

And the cold looks

That early-risers send in my late-sleeping direction,

When they too may sleep in

On weekends free from tribulations?

Who would heed the alarm's early call,

To squint and yawn through the first hours of the day,

But that the horror that something may be missed while dozing,

The unknown events that have occurred which

The gossips discuss

While we stand in a confused daze,

Wishing we had risen on time

Instead of seeking those futile thirty minutes?

Thus the chance of missing out does make early risers of us all,

And thus the bliss of sleeping in

Is tainted by eye-opening thoughts of lost news,

And peaceful moments of dreams and sleep

With this regard their paths are cut short

And lose the dark in favor of the harsh light.
