I hate packing because I have to make many decisions and remember of previous packing experiences where I used less than half of the clothes, so I keep rearranging until last minute.

Anyway, this time I had an intense two weeks at work preparing things before I went on my holiday. I had to wake up at 4:45am to go into the airport but the last time I messed up with the bags was 1:30am on the same day. "No biggie" I thought, and I set the alarm for 4:45 and slept.

When I wake up, the first thing I remember thinking was "damn, that was a nice, deep sleep. I feel good". The sun was shining gently through the curtains and it felt like a great Saturday morning A few seconds later I realize something was off. I reach my phone and look at the time: something past 11am.

Long story short I had to buy an one way ticket and luckily there was another flight on the afternoon.

The aftermath: I don't trust my mobile phone to wake me up. I set two separate alarms to wake me up if I have one of those very early morning flights. If I am in a hotel, I also request two separate wake up calls, just to be sure.
