Set the alarm for 7:32 a.m.

Web alarm clock for 7:32 a.m.

You are only just waking at 7:32 am, with the fish stall still waiting to be opened after the boats unload their catch. Set this alarm before your feet touch the floor, then use the time before 8:00 am to wash up, dress, and check what you need for the morning’s first customers.

As you get ready for the fish stall, keep this alarm page in the foreground instead of switching away and leaving it behind other browser tabs. A background tab may be slowed or paused, so the sound might not come when the catch needs to be arranged. The alarm also cannot alert you if its page is closed or your phone goes to sleep; that could leave the fish stall unopened after unloading. Keep the page visible, the phone awake, and the volume high enough to hear over nearby activity.

Before heading from home to the fish stall this early, step outside briefly and notice how heavy the air feels. Philippine mornings near the shore can already be humid, so choose light clothes and bring a small towel for the walk and unloading area. Keeping drinking water ready also makes the damp start easier to manage while you prepare the counter at 8:00 am.
