The alarm clock blared loudly in the dimly lit room.
Con Heo groaned and buried his head under the pillow, trying to block out the noise. He had stayed up late the night before, binge-watching his favorite TV show and lost track of time. He knew he had an important meeting to attend this morning, but he just couldn't seem to drag himself out of bed. Con Heo had always been a heavy sleeper. It wasn't uncommon for him to sleep through multiple alarms, much to the frustration of his roommates.

The meeting was with a potential investor who could make or break his business. He had been working on his startup for months, pouring his heart and soul into it. The thought of missing this opportunity made him panic. With a final burst of determination, Con Heo finally threw off the covers and stumbled out of bed. He quickly washed his face, brushed his teeth, and threw on the first clean clothes he could find. He ran out the door, barely stopping to grab a quick breakfast on his way to the meeting. As he rushed through the crowded streets, Con Heo could feel the anxiety building in his chest. He knew he was cutting it close, but he couldn't afford to let his nerves get the best of him. He arrived at the meeting just in time, slightly out of breath but determined to make a good impression. To his surprise, the investor was impressed by his dedication and drive. He listened intently as Con Heo pitched his business idea, outlining his vision and goals. By the end of the meeting, the investor was ready to sign on and help Con Heo bring his dream to life. As Con Heo left the meeting, a wave of relief washed over him. He had been woken up just in time, thanks to the blaring alarm clock and the support of his roommates. He knew that he still had a lot of hard work ahead of him, but he was more determined than ever to make his business a success. And so, Con Heo's journey continued, filled with ups and downs but always fueled by his passion and perseverance. He had learned a valuable lesson that day - sometimes, you need to be woken up in order to truly wake up to your full potential
