Yes, I am well aware that when midnight rolls around a new day "officially" begins. But, I know that most people here do not go to bed at midnight. So, when you declare a new day, do you declare it at midnight, or do you declare it when you wake up.
Personally, I'm a new-day-when-I-wake type guy. Even if I'm going to bed at 6 or 7 in the morning (which, sadly I have at college), it's still the previous day until I reset my sleep cycle.
The only exception would be if I didn't actually sleep that night. But that rarely happens, sooooooo..........

I'm still awake, its 2 AM now. I'll go to bed at around 5 AM and the day will start when I awaken around 2 PM
Nope, a new day starts around 5/6am whether I'm awake or not. It's when the paper comes and the sun usually rises and everything else starts up. When I went to work at Best Buy at 4am in merchandise (oh god what a shitty time of my life) I honestly felt that the day started without me.
When I was younger and stayed up for 48 hours at a time, sometimes two days melded into one, just because my memories were so fresh.

Tomorrow begins for me whenever I wake up.

When I pray after midnight, I thank for the yesterday. I ask help for the night and the rest of the day.
It's so stupid, but I just know it's scientifically correct to call it a next day at midnight.

I'd say midnight. It's when I realize I should start going to bed because I have to get up later in that same day...
its not tomorrow until i wake up, ever.

When I wake up. I work overnights (7pm-7am) so it doesn't begin until I'm up obviously.
