Us

Friday Day 1.

I open my eyes, sighing as I had already started college a couple days ago. It's finally Friday, last class of the week. I roll out of my bed and head to the restroom. I turn the water on and let it run as I rub the sleep out of my eyes. I cup the cool water and splash it on my face. I brush my teeth and put my hair up in a messy bun and head out back to my room. I groan as I stub my toe against the railing of my brothers bed. "Get up, you'll be late for school" I tell him as I limp my way to my bed.

It's 9:00 a.m. and I lay backdown in bed, not having to worry about getting ready until later. My class started at 4 so I had all the time in the world. I go on my phone, as per usual, and scroll through instagram. Yawning, I cose my eyes again trying to go back to sleep. "Take me to school." My brother shakes me and I groan in annoyance. "Tell mom to take you." I swat him away and drift off to sleep.

My eyes flutter open and I sit up quickly, paniking as I pick up my phone to check the time. 2:30. I get up once again and get ready to leave. I change into something simple and do my make up lightly before grabbing my things and heading out.

I get to school with 20 minutes to spare. I look at the online map of the school and figure out where my class is, the classes underground, great. I head over and find it. Sitting in my seat in the back I look around at all the people and count "1, 2, 3, 4..." No more than 15 people. Such a small class. The teacher walks in and introduces herself and hands out a worksheet. "Welcome to Introduction to Film Photography" she says. Film photography?!  I check my schedule again, this must be the wrong class  I think to myself, but of course it wasn't. I had chosen the wrong class.

I sigh and start doing the worksheet. "Fill out the best you can. Even if you dont know it, take a guess." I look at the paper, this is not what I wanted. I shrug it off and decide to just go with it and pull through for the first day. Half way through the worksheet, 20 minutes into the class, a guy walks in. I look up and look at him, annoying I think to myself seeing as he was late. I look back down to my paper and continue.

He takes a seat in front of me and I look up to meet his black Jansport back pack hitting my desk. I roll my eyes annoyed and continue. "Hey what are we supposed to do?" I look up and see the guy looking back at me. Cute glasses, and braces. What a cutie I think to myself. "Oh uh just choose the answers you think are the right ones." He thanks me and turns back to his desk. A minute later. "Do we circle the whole thing or?" He turns back around with his paper on my desk. "Uh yeah I guess you can, or just circle the letter." Once again he nods and turns around.

I look at my phone and its almost 7p.m. That's half the class. i sigh exhausted as the teacher gives us our break, and I head out to give my mom a call. I talk to her for a while and hangup to call my boyfriend. "Hey how's class going." I explain to him how I had chosen the wrong class and was thinking about dropping it. "I wanted digital photography," I complain, "right now I'm about to go back. We have 'lab'time" I say throwing quatations in the air. "okay then I'll talk to you later then." We hang up.

The rest of the class was pretty okay, the teacher taught us how to use the machines and the chemicals to develop our picture, and I gotta admit it was pretty cool. Class ended at 9 p.m. and I stuffed all my stuff in my backpack. "Alright everyone, bring at least 20 objects from home for our next class! We will be making a picture out of all the things." She dismisses us and I walk out leaving the class behind and head to the car. 

I get home and kick off my shoes and sigh. "what a long class"I say as I shut my eyes and drift off into a peaceful sleep.
