getting up

i never have problems of getting up early if i have to get up early to do something i really want to do. like a trip somewhere, for example. then i wake up before my computer starts playing heavy-metal (yes, it's my wake-up trick: a computer set to restart by itself and hit the heavy playlist). do i have to be at the train station or at the airport at five a.m.? consider it done, no alarms are required. the excitement - the same excitement that keeps me from going to bed early - takes care of my wake up. often several times during the night. excitement. it's all about excitement, the prospect of facing the unknown, of living something new even if it is only for a couple of days. how i long to feel like that.
