10 Things I Did in the Morning.....

I woke up at 5:32 AM. Still half-asleep, I strained my neck to look out the window from my second-story bedroom. The sun was barely pushing through the clouds. Too early, I thought, and let the waves of euphoria wash over me. It seemed as if only 30 minutes had gone by when I heard the blaring of my alarm- the annoying repetition of the same musical verse over and over again. It was actually 9:25 AM. I looked at the clock again, just to make sure I did not have 30 more minutes to continue to dream. As I realized I had only five minutes or so to get ready, I sprung from my bed as if someone had placed a hot pan under me. I then dashed to the bathroom and brushed my teeth and my face. I chose my outfit, with my eyes barely open, grabbed my bag and squirted out the door. As I drove to school like a Nascar driver, I reminded myself to set my alarm earlier for next week.
