"Good Morning Boston! It's September sixth and it looks like the clouds are going to be sticking with us all day as temperatures drop into the low sixties."

I groan and roll over on my bed and slam my hand down on my alarm clock that was now blaring the most annoying radio weather report. I peek open my crusty eyes to find that it's sixty-thirty in the morning. Ugh, this stinking sucks so bad, I have a horrible hate/love relationship with school and today I was hating it immensely.

I stretch my limbs out before tossing the duvet off of my body before I could change my mind and start cuddling my pillow again. I stumble out of bed like a drunken monkey and head over to the bathroom.

I splash a hand full of cold water onto my face before brushing my teeth and combing my hair that currently look like a bird resides in it. I relieve my bladder and drag myself back into my room, resisting the urge to crawl back into bed and hide.

I pull open the door to my average sized closet and pull out a pair  of leggings and my purpose tour hoodie that my distant aunt Lisa gave to me as a late Christmas gift. And by late I mean I received mid June when it was way too hot to wear it. I eventually got bored with the hoodie and cropped it trying to make it more appropriate for California weather. I tug on my black and white AllStar hightop converses and practically fall face first on the floor. I stand up quickly thanking the lord above that no one was around to see that.

I look at myself in the mirror and decided to pull half of my hair up into a cute little bun and pop on some mascara to make my eyes look more open and to ensure I didn't look like I just walked off the set of the walking dead.

The flushing of the toilet alerts me that my mom is awake and I couldn't help but roll my eyes. She's such an early bird. I never understand how she could willing wake up at such ridiculous hours.

I pull my phone off the charger before grabbing my school bag and heading down stairs. I grab a banana out of the fruit bowl that my mom insists is a necessity. She's always complaining that I eat too much junk food.

"Good morning sweetie." She gives me a small kiss on the temple before making her way over to stove to begin making her tea.

"Morning momma." I say taking a large bite out of the banana trying my best to finish it quickly so I won't be late to school. It was recommended I get there early so I have time to find my locker and classes.

"Did you pack a lunch?" My mom asks looking at me skeptically as I shove the last of the banana in my mouth. I shake my head "no" as I look over at the time on the microwave. 7:03 am. Ah schnitzel sticks I gotta go.
