     "Get up!" my mom yells. I groan, I hate Monday's. I groan, but get on my phone to check Instagram and stuff. After that I get into the shower, and litteraly scrub my body until it was red.

     Once I was done, I got dressed and started on the mane I call hair. I blow dried my hair. Then worked on straightening it. And I love my hair, its very purple. It was supposed to be blue, but it was a happy accident.

     I went to my closet, and no, its not a huge walk in closet with skimpy dresses, my closet doesn't even have doors. I scanned through my t-shirts, and picked a sleeping with sirens shirt, with Kellin on it. I love him. I walked to my dresser, and looked in the middle left drawer, to look for everyday pants. I settle on some black skinnies with some rips in it. Then, I go to my favorite part, my belts!

     I know, I sound girly, but I think a nice belt can do just the trick. I look at my selections.

do I go with rainbow pyramid studs, or silver pyramid studs? Or maybe my belt with rivets?

    I decided with my rivet belt. After about a 7 minute struggle trying to fit my belt through my belt loops, I go to my closet again to look for shoes. I go with my normal black converse.

     I open my door and walk through my small hallway. My house is very small, and only one story. No basement, or attic. Once i get to the kitchen, I go for the pantry for cereal. I poor my bowl of Smart Start. As I'm eating at the counter, my mom walks in for work.

     "Mom, why do i have to be up this early? Its spring break..." I grumble. I like to sleep in, even if its only to 8.

     "Because," She says as she is fumbling with her work belt, "I get up, you get up. Besides, I need you to run to town, and get some things." I do a double take.

     "Mom! I don't have a car! And besides, its not like I can get to any grocery stores!" I exclaimed. Its true, they're all to far away, to walk at least. Unless she wants flowers, antiques, or a 4 wheeler, that's all I can walk to!

     "Relax, I need stuff from Maverick. And some fresh air will be good for you." She says, smiling. I shiver.

     "That air is not fresh, neither is the store, or the people in the store!" I said. just the thought makes me want to crawl to the shower and never return.

     "Your going. Period. There's money in my drawer, and a list on the white board. I have to go, love you." She kisses my head, and walks out. I groan, but start getting ready. I grab my bag, not a purse or anything, just a bag for hand sanitizer, antibacterial wipes, gloves, and my wallet.

     I grab the money, and go to the board. i also grab the slip of paper, reading Doritos, Diet Coke, Mt. Dew, and milk. great. Just great.

     I prepare myself to leave my house, making sure I have everything. I take a deep breath, and open my door.
