I rush home, puffing and panting I search the house for my mum. I find her doing some sort of weird yoga exercises. I barge in her room "take me to school" I puff. "Tom" she says "You seem stressed relax darling let the anger out" "I'll let the anger out by punching a hole in the wall if you don't drive me to school mum" "Sweety" says mum "I didn't raise a rude child you hurt my feelings, I won't drive you to school unless you say sorry" "Mum" I interrupt "I'm gonna be late" "not listening" She replies, "ok I am sorry for the way I behaved ok I'm sorry now I'm going to be late so can we please go" "ok ok says mum, wait where are my keys" "oh wow this is convenient!" It's already 8.42am and I'm stuck at home on my first day of year 7 looking for my mums keys because I couldn't catch a silly bus on time! Can this day get any worse! We eventually find the keys (dad was sitting on them) and hop in the car, it's 8.45am Might just be on time! We are on the main road and heading past the bus stop but after the bus stop there is a traffic jam. A police officer comes over to our car and says there has been a crash and there clearing it up it could take at least a hour. Without thinking I jump out of the car and run run run as fast as my legs can take me. I run past Nessilvile bowling club, Wollies and finally I see my school! Thank god I made it! I really can't believe it I am not even that late it's only 8.53am
