Watching some of my family members (aka the one i'm married to) sleep, came up with the "Law of inverse happiness through sleep":
The mount of happiness derived from sleeping is inversely proportional to the amount of time left until the alarm goes off.
For instance, if the alarm were to go off by 7 am, the happiness from sleeping between 6:55 am to 7:00 am is way more than the happiness which comes from having slept from 6:00 am to 6:45 am. Or from 10:00 pm to 5:00 am... those last 5 minutes multiply the happiness!
Do you agree? What's your experience like? :) Is it a result of some well-known psychological phenomenon?
