"What's up everybody? I'm Marko, I'm Alex, and you are watching Vagabrothers. And this is our..." It has been routine every morning before I walk to school - watching the Vagabrothers backpacking around the world.
And oh sh*t! I'm almost late for school! Ahh! It reads 7:12 on my clock(nope, watches are for the weak!:P) and I'm supposed to reach school by 7:20?! Wait, it's 7:28 to be exact... 7:25 on the first bell that signifies "it's time to walk to assembly", and 7:28 on the next bell that signifies that "dude! Assembly is starting! Better get yo ass there before you get caught being late!" But first, let's get me outta the house and sprint my way to school as fast as I could.
Switch on-7:14.
I looked up while I tied the black shoelaces into butterflies. What a refreshing view. Blue and orange and blue and orange and blue and orange, like pieces of bricks, the clouds and the sky complemented each other and formed an amazing piece of art up there. I ran out of the lobby, darted across the road without getting myself killed, and continued charging to the overhead bridge. Now, I stood infront of the overhead bridge and started panting, ah why am I so weak? I climbed up the staircase reluctantly, thighs aching, and walked for the rest of the 'journey'. Seeing school in a distance, I was relieved. Phew, at least now I'm closer to school, there's no point running eh(you didn't run, you idiot).
Switch on- 7:26?!
The green man hinted me to start running. Ah! I ran across the road and then to school. Now, I saw a gang of students gathering near the school gate - oh no! Not again. I'm late?! After all that running(not a lot tho) and sweat. Being late on the first day of school? Cool. When assembly ended, I waited for the hall to clear, while I'm sitting at my 'favourite spot', thinking "why does the latecomers always need to sit infront of the whole school? To humiliate us?" And all the other possible reasons of the principal's doing.
Atlas, I finally crawled up six storeys to my classroom and staggered in like a zombie. I collapsed on my seat and laid my head on the cool blue table. As other classmates started strolling in the classroom, I looked at them one by one restlessly, and then closed my eyes. When I opened my eyes, a pair of eyes were staring at me, as if I was his prey. I flinched back in disbelief. So he was staring at me this whole time? "Mrs Oh, oh no I mean, Mr Soh.. Er hi?" I said while fidgeting. "Good Morning. Not bad not bad. See me after lesson" ah. Soon after having the short chat with Mr Soh, I walked back into the class, restlessly.
