Quick A/N! This is the story of my day, detail by detail, I hope.

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

My alarm clock screeched at me as I peered at the clock. I rubbed my eyes. I pushed my dog off my bed, and then jumped skillfully onto the floor. I turned the clock off, then turned to my desk to retrieve my glasses. I began to get ready, and stepped on a pencil in the process. I opened up my kindle case, and texted my girlfriend.

Goodmorning, baby!

I thought you weren't goin to be on this morning.

I sneaked it.

Oh.. gtg, love you!

Luv you too..

I shut my kindle and slipped my hoodie on, pulling the sleeves of my long-sleeved shirt down a little to make it more comfortable. I walked downstairs and came across my bathroom. My brother, Elijah, and my sister, Alexis, were standing, along with my mother. "Goodmorning" I said. I brushed my teeth quickly. I turned to my mom, who had just walked past the stairs.

"Hey, mom? When are you gonna schedule me a hair appointment?" I asked, needing a hair trim for about 2 months. "I don't know, maybe when you actually don't make it look like crap?," she said. Her words stung. She meant for them to sting. I walked upstairs and began to color in my mythical creatures adult coloring book. I heard my mom talking to my dad. "Isabelle keeps annoying me for her haircut, but why should I when it looks awful!?"

At this point I was crying because I didn't do anything to deserve the hate in her words. I continued coloring. I then put my shoes on. I could hear my dad call my name, but I ignored him. "ISABELLE!" He yelled. "IM COMING!" I screamed at him. I grabbed my bookbag and walked downstairs. "About time. Listen to me when I call for you. Take the dog out," he said. "Its 7:26 and you still haven't taken the dog out.." my mom snickered.

I took the dog out and walked back inside then went BACK outside and got into the car. My brother got in the car, then my sister. The air was cold, inside and out. Brisk jolts of coldness shot up my nose into my lungs. My dad got in the car. He handed me his phone, which he lets me play Pokemon Go® on every morning before school. "Yellow has the gym.." I said. "I know," he said. "I'll kick their butts later."

Bleh I will finish this later when I don't have to go to bed XD I'm tired, okay!?
