Daily Life


I don't know if anyone is interested, but this is my schedule for an average weekday of my life: I wake up. Sleep five minutes more and wake up again. I get ready for school and go back to sleep. I wake up again when it's almost time for the bus to come pick me up. I go down to ride the bus and stare out the window in the freezing coldness, thinking of nothing. I go to my first class trying to force myself not to fall asleep. I get a little snack on our twenty minute break. I go to my second class and actually pay attention to the teacher. I go to the third class and keep on staring at the clock from time to time, hoping that it would be 11:30 (which is when our lunchtime starts). I happily go to lunch to eat and technically do nothing for the next hour. Finally, I go to my last class and wonder why time seems to go a lot slower at this time of the day. After finishing a strenuous day at school, I struggle to choose whether to stay "afterschool" or not. While trying to decide what I should do, I end up staying because I miss the bus. I goof around with others for an hour and ride the bus back home. I eat a small snack and try to do homework (but something always distracts me). Next thing I know, it's already time for dinner and I eat again. I finish my homework really fast and heavily go to sleep because of the tiredness I get from wasting all my energy for the day on nothing necessarily very important. Seems very boring, doesn't it? Well, anyways that's my daily life.

5:00 in the Morning

5:00 A.M. is about the time when I would be waking up (or at least trying to) to get ready to go to school. I think it's a bit too early. Anyways, so today I heard the ring of my alarm clock. Annoyed, I smashed the snooze button so that I would sleep only five minutes more. Before those five minutes were up, this friend of mine called me. I angrily answered the phone and I tried to shout at him because he just woke me up, but I was too tired and sleepy to do so. This was our conversation:

Me: "...Hello?"

Friend: "Hey, what's up?"

Me: "Nothing... just that someone decided to ruin my Tuesday by calling me at five in the morning while I was still asleep... you?"

Friend:"...Nothing... just that my dad received a text message from the school a while ago, saying that there is no school today."

Me: "Wait, seriously? YES!!! Virtual hi-five! Thanks for telling.

Friend: "Your welcome. Do you want to meet up today and do something?

Me: "I don't know. We will figure that out later. But for now, I do know that I am going to go to sleep... so see ya!"

Friend: "Okay then..."

So, yes, I didn't go to school today; apparently, there was some kind of a big strike for buses. I'm not really sure. I should check on it later. Anyways, so today would have probably been the only day where I actually felt happy at 5:00 A.M.
