*Beep* *beep* beep* *beep* I open my eyes to the softly played alarm clock. It takes me a second to wake up but I somehow find the motivation to get up. I rub my face with my hands, then repeatedly gently slap it to boost myself up. I slowly rise up from my bed and walk over to my dresser. I grab some clothes I feel like wearing today, a white hoodie, a normal black t-shirt, and some black sweatpants. I go into the bathroom to relieve myself and change. After I'm done in the bathroom I go and grab my camera on my desk.
" Damn it, forgot to charge it last night, this is what I get for staying up working, oh well I'll just have to bring my charger and charge it in my classes," I say to myself. I work in the photography class at school, nothing major, just mostly take pictures and videos of nature for this unit. I know for sure the next one is food which I'm not really excited for, I thought this class would be more out in the open and fun instead of just boring stuff that people will just end up skimming through on the school's photography Instagram. I open my phone to text my girlfriend good morning,
" Good morning honey, " I text her, shortly after I get a message back,
" Good morning! How did you sleep?" She responds,
" Eh alright I was up late, well I'm almost ready for school I'll talk to you when I get there," I responded back, I got an ok message from her and I went and packed the rest of my things into my bag and I check the time, 6:42 am.
" Oh, looks like it's time for me to go," I say, I grab my bag and walk out the door. It was quiet while walking down the lightly brightened neighborhood. The sounds of the wind, birds and nearby cars were the only thing disrupting the silence that the morning had. It usually takes me about 4-5 minutes to get down to the end of the street where my bus stop was. I get down by my bus stop and check the time again, 6:46. The bus showed up a few seconds after I showed up, it was good timing. The bus door opens and I walk onto the bus which was also pretty quiet, it seemed like today was going to be a bit quiet. I pick a seat and the bus slowly starts moving, I watch my bus stop pass by until we get to the open road. I had a thought while I was walking.
" There was a nice spot to take a photo of the evergreens from across the road from my bus stop, I'll have to take a photo tomorrow or at least a video, I believe the greens would stick out beautifully for my next project," I thought to myself. The bus arrived at the school in a short matter of time, granted I was the last stop to be picked up and the school was only a four minute drive from my house. The bus stops in the bus loop and all the students get out and walk towards the near front entrance of the school. I walk through the halls to find my girlfriend in the same spot where we usually meet up before going to our classes. She spots me and gives me a smile, I smile back and walk up and sit next to her.
" Hey honey," I say,
" Good morning my love," She says, her face gets pouty,
" What's wrong?" I ask,
" Why were you up so late?" she asks me,
" Oh, I had work to do, I was checking some stuff from my camera which took awhile and I must have been quite tired and forgot to charge it," I explain.
" Uh oh, did you bring your charger?" she asks,
" Yeah I did, I'm just going to charge it before my photography class, I mean I do have six hours before that class starts, man why does it have to be a thursday, I wish the weekend would just show up faster and we gotta wait four more months until summer starts," I complain,
" Yeah I feel you, I wish the summer was here so I could spend all my time with you instead of being at school," she says,
" Hehe yeah," I say, the bell rings and we hug each other and say goodbye before parting off to our classes. Six boring hours of more boring lessons, and then lunch would start. Just five more minutes... three more minutes... one more minute... the bell rings and everyone heads out for their lunch. I meet my girlfriend in the hall on our way to lunch together and we wait in the line and grab our food. We head over to the table where our friends sat,
