"VALERIE HONEY WAKE UP," Aunt Mariam says shaking my shoulders gently. I opened my eyes and sat up taking a peak at my phone.
6:35am.
"I'm leaving to go to work now hon, your car is going to be delievered until next week so you'll have to catch a ride with Eliana until then," she says before standing up, ploping a fat kiss on my cheek and walking out the door. As soon she shes left I let out a big sigh.
Seven minutes later, I'm sitting in the same spot Mariam left me in, staring at my blank white wall thinking if school is even worth it.
I'm surprised Aunt Mariam even remembered that I need to be woken up, I even set an alarm in case she forgot.
I can't wake up to alarms, I'm a very heavy sleeper so waking up to alarms is off the table for me because even if I set one I'll just sleep right through it.
Mum never used to tell me to wake me up, she would open and slam my door really loud, and to make sure I'm really awake she'd slam the front door too just incase.
So I'm really thankful Aunt Mariam went out of her way to wake me up. It made me feel, I don't know, cared about and loved.
Finally deciding I need to get up and get dressed, I hopped out of bed and slip on my most beloved shoes, my ugg slippers.
I walk into the bathroom and take a look in the mirror, almost jumping at the sight of my messy bed hair.
I wash my face, brush my teeth and take a tinkle, before walking back into the bedroom to plug in my hair straightener. I walk back out of the bathroom and head for my closet to pick out an outfit.
I end up picking blue cargo jeans, a white tank top and a brown zip up jacket. I put on my nike socks and lastly I slide on my military red jordan 4s.
I sit down on my vanity chair to put on some makeup while my straightener heats up.
I've never been one to wear a lot of makeup, I mean who am I dressing up for anyway? Plus I suck at putting on makeup, so I settle for some concealer, mascara and lip gloss.
I walk back to my bathroom to straighten my hair and add my earring to all my piercings (seven), spray my signature scent (sol de janeiro 68) and head downstairs.

"Good morning Val," Eliana exclaimed (with too much energy considering it was 7:00 in the morning) when I walked into the kitchen.
"Morning," I said while grabbing an apple.
Another thing I can't do is eat breakfast in the morning, it's not even a choice. If I eat anything more than 1 piece of fruit I'll actually throw up.
While I munch down my apple I take my phone out and check the email I got from the school with all my details.
Good morning Miss Adams,
