making a dialog to stop a loop and quit script

hi, i wrote an alarm applescript that turns up the volume in itunes for 15 minutes to make me wake up. the problem is that when i run the script i have to let it run for the full 15 minutes. what i would like to do is make a dialog box that is on for the whole time the script is running and if i press the button it will quit the loop and/ or the script. i cant seem to understand how to do that while i searched the documentation. thanks in advance for any help with this.
from what i tried when i make the dialog box it sits and waits for my input. i want my program to continue executing. it might just be easier to make the dialog replace the terminating value in my loop, but my real problem is just continuing execution.
