The SAT That Changed My Life

The woke up to the sound of banging pots in pans and the smell of bacon in the air. Early mornings in the Anderson house were anything, but organized. The hectic day to day hustle was often more than Scarlett could handle at such an outrageous hour ,but alas everyday she managed to get through the day as smoothly as possible. Unfortunately today was not one of those days. The first of many unfortunate events that occurred that day was her late awakening. She had specifically set her alarm the night before for 5 A.M. but the nightstand clock strikingly portrayed the large harsh red numbers at exactly 5:45 A.M. In a rush, Lake ran about her room throwing on the first clothes she could find: leggings, a pair of beat up chucks, and a hoodie. Throwing her hair up into a messy bun she rushed to open her computer and turn on her laptop. Once connected to wifi she began to download her SAT ticket and tried to print it. At this point, her printer started blaring its loud dinging noise indicating that not only was her paper not printing, but that she was out of paper. Thus began her journey across her house in search of one paper that could make or break her future. With the paper in hand, she started her trek back to her room when she remembered, that she had yet to back her bag with pencils and the calculator she was sure to need on any math section. After finally banging her printer a few times and spewing a few cuss words, Scarlett was ready to face the day ahead of her. Little did she know that her morning was an indication of how the rest of her day would be. And this my friends is where the story begins.
