My Worst Self

My day was absolutely dreadful. It's not like the teachers slammed a lot of work at us, it's that I had to go to school after such a lovely Winter Break.

Waking up so early and having no time for breakfast really wears me out. Not to mention the eight hours of school and the annoying ride back from the bus.

Here's a regular school day for me (estimated times):

6:00 AM: (Alarm goes off) Drag myself out of bed.
6:05-6:25 AM: Wash my face, brush my teeth, take a shower.
6:25-6:35 AM: Apply lotion/other moisturizers, get dressed.
6:35-7:00 AM: Style hair, do makeup.
7:00-7:15 AM: Do a few last minute things.
7:15-7:25 AM: See if I can find something to eat in time, otherwise known as breakfast.
7:25 AM: Leave for bus stop.
7:30ish-8:05 AM: Bus picks me up, stop by other kid's stops, drive to school.
8:05 AM-3:28 PM: learning, walking around campus, eating horrible lunch, etc., A.K.A School.
3:28-3:50ish PM: Ride bus home, walk to house.
3:50-8:00 PM: Watch T.V., Eat, Enjoy my day.
8:00-10:00 PM: Do homework (if any).
10:00-11:00 PM: Enjoy my night, go to bed.
11:00 PM-6:00 AM:  Sleep.
6:00 AM: Start over.

5 days a week, every week. 
This can get tiring. For everyone saying I should be grateful to even get an education, yes I know. I am.
But I'm still annoyed, frustrated and tired by school days and I think I always will be.

Anyway, I hope I didn't bore you too much. But now you know exactly what I do five days of my normal week.

The Worst Feeling...

www.thedickinsonpress.com
Nervousness. I'm so nervous for track tomorrow. We have our first day of conditioning for the year. We have two weeks of conditioning and then we have Winter break for two weeks. Then it's back to one week of conditioning.
Soon after, it's try-outs.

Where I live, at my school, sports are very important to us. So they want the best of the best to be on each team. So of course (like most schools) there is a Varsity and Junior Varsity team for Track and Field. Tryouts determine which team and what event (Pole Vault, 4x100 relay, 200 Meter Sprint, etc...) is best for you.
Track is usually an open sport where anyone can join and events are chosen for you. But this year, in highschool, it's tryouts. It makes since though...
I don't want to get stuck on a bad team where everyone is really bad and I am better than them. (No cockiness intended.)

Regardless, our first day of conditioning is killing me. The day hasn't even started yet and I'm already dying of nerves! I just hope I can get along with everyone and do good at conditioning.

I'll keep you updated on all that happens. I have exams (mid terms) to study for and lots of homework to catch up on. So I won't post again until Tuesday.
