When someone sets an alarm clock, but wakes up just before it actually goes off.
Usually as a result of the brain anticipating that it will suddenly be awoken by a loud sound and therefore you awake without the need of the alarm.

"I don't know why I keep setting my alarm every morning, because I just end up waking up 10 minutes before it goes off".
"That's an Anticipation Awakening my good friend".

Get the Anticipation Awakening mug.That brief period between when the driver gets in the car and when he unlocks the passenger door for a friend waiting to get into the car.
The passenger often tries to open the door a few times before it is actually unlocked. Sometimes the attempts to open the door and the actual unlocking of it coincide, and the attempt negates the unlocking.

Hey, keep your door lock anticipation under control! Quit trying to open the door until I unlock it!

Get the Scrolling Anticipation mug.That point in a school year, where summer break is finally in sight but still seems so far away. A moment in time where it's still too early to say, "Yay! It's almost summer!" but late enough in the school year where you just want to get out of there. Worse yet, those big scary exams are coming up, and you probably have a project or two that is worth more than half your grade lying around. Teachers are usually completing their curriculums around this time, and students have gotten noticeably cockier. Not to be confused with senioritis because this happens in almost every school year.
Person 1: Yay, summer's almost here!
Person 2: Dude, summer is still seven weeks away, chill out. You must have Summer Anticipation Disorder.

Get the the anticipation is eating my spine mug.The feeling someone gets when something good or bad is about to happen. Or like when a battle is about to take place and every one gets real quiet right before the order is give to charge. It's a feeling that in and of itself is neither positive or negative. It's the defense mechanism that prepares us for what ever may come our way.
It's at the moment of anticipation, we all must make that hard decision to do or die.
