WATCH: Slap yourself awake as 2015 crawls to a close!
Updated | By Tando Ntunja
Is the heatwave and the year-end slump getting you down? Struggling to wake up daily? Build an alarm clock that'll slap you awake then!

Started counting down the days of no office time already? Does it feel like this drought and the heatwave aren't working with you? How many alarms do you have set on your cellphone?

Bet that image looks familiar - you have at least another month of doing this - pretending, wishing your alarm clock didn't exist. Because it's the end of the year. Because it's too darned hot. Because you're. Just. Exhausted.
Sleep deprivation is incredibly real - earlier, did you catch The Complementary Breakfast tricking MalJan into believing that he'd been asleep for three weeks straight?

Quirky inventor Simone Giertz may well have a solution for you - build yourself an automatic slapping wake up machine!
