MY WORKING DAY.
IN THE MORNING
The alarm clock marks 7 a.m., I wake up but I don't
feel like getting up. I dream of another hour of sleep but
the sound of the clock keeps wearing on me. I've got to
stand up and work out a bit. Then I air my room out,
knock something down and get about dressing.
It's difficult to poke about running around after the
things you need and stumbling across the ones you have
no need for, trying to pick up books or clothes. That search
always messes up the room (my mum sometimes comes at
me for that mess), so I always have to tear off to get on
a bus and be in time for my studies.
