One day in your life (Michael Jackson/Jackson 5

[1]

"Mckenna! Ashley! Breakfast!" I heard my mother yell in the distance of my beautiful sleep, that I was so sad to leave. I then heard myself groan, just before my sister Ashley shouted:

"Dad's a scientist! Aren't you smart enough to homeschool us?!" she isn't exactly what you'd call your typical morning person but, I have to admit that it was a very good point nonetheless!

The first day of 10th grade, my dramatic drama class (pun intended) voice, already started speaking over my regular voice in my brain. 'oh, september! Thou are such a beautiful month. Why must thy bring something so horrid, such as school?'

I let out a sigh before reaching over to my nightstand, feeling around for my phone with my eyes still closed. Feeling absolutely nothing and refusing to get up, I moved over more and more until I fell off the bed, hitting the nightstand before I hit the floor, my phone falling down onto my head, thank God it was after that, that my older sister Ashley ran in, in reaction to the noise.

"What the hell was that?!" She asked, already surprisingly ready. Usually she was at least 20 minutes late to every possible day of school.

"Found it..." referring to my phone, was all I could mutter, recovering from the frickin concussion I had just received. Great way to start off the first day, kids! 10/10 recommend.

she looked at me with a confused face. "Anyway.. I'm leaving early, girlfriend! Brad and Jenna are picking me up. This is my senior year and I plan on making this my first good year as well. Have a good day in 10th! Love you" she went back out into the hall, and shut the door behind her. I couldn't help but laugh thinking of my sister being on her best behavior. She wasn't into anything too crazy like smoking, or getting black out drunk and intercourse but, she did like to party and have minor hookups. She ended up in detention a lot for talking, back sassing, or being late too often or not doing homework.

I finally picked myself up off of the floor, and walked over to the clothes I had picked out after my shower the night before. The first and last days of school, were the only two I was ever excited for! 10th grade, what a lovely thought. 2 more years of hell and I'll be out of there! How exciting is that?

The alarm on my phone went off, rudely snapping me out of my thoughts. I walked over and shut it off before checking the notifications on my phone, there was nothing too special. My best friends Sophie, Keli and I had a groupchat, that was constantly going off on the rare occassions that we weren't together, I wish there was some good gossip that I could share with you but, we were just talking about starting the school year. I checked social media, and replied to a couple nice comments, and liked some photos then reminded myself to get moving.

I got back up and got dressed, putting on a cute off the shoulder white shirt that was ruffled in the middle, ripped jeans and a pair of brown sandles. I quickly did my skincare routine, brushed my teeth and hair before doing a little makeup, and braiding the small front pieces of my hair, tying them together in the back.

I grabbed everything I would need for the day then ran downstairs, the delicious smell of french toast blessing my nostrils, but there was no time for that! "Smells great mom!" I quickly kissed her cheek before taking my lunch box out of the fridge and throwing a bag of chips and an icepack in for my drink.

I could see her frustrated but, at the same time trying not to laugh from the corner of my eye. "Mckenna Lynn! You need to eat your breakfast, honey! French toast with cinnamon, is your favorite!"

I quickly stopped what I was doing, and looked at her. "Mommy, it's a TIME MACHINE! A time machine that is almost DONE, must I remind you! Do you think I'm going to leave my-" I took a deep breath. "-brilliant, extrodinary, smart, wonderful, genius, incredible, otherworldly, extravagant-"
