Month: September 2016

Woke up
I woke up to the piercing sound of my alarm ringing in my ears

Washed
I turned on my shower and the shocking chill of the cold water was a slap round the face to reassure i was awake

Had breakfast
The silky nutella and soft bread filled my stomach

Brush my teeth
The minty fresh toothpaste refeshing my breath and filling my nose.

Went to school

The loud music saving me from boredom as i travelled to school
