Holly woke up and looked at her alarm clock. 8:00 am it read. It was actually seven but she had put it an hour ahead so she'd think she was running late for school. After getting over the shock of being late she closed her eyes for another 8 minutes. Then she got up and began getting ready for school. What was the point? It all seemed so pointless. When would she ever use the knowledge of the 13 colonies in the future? She wouldn't! She'd have some new electronic device to for that stuff. After making a lunch and climbing in the car with her ESL mother, she was on her way to her current "Torture Place of Death" as she called it. She sat for about thirty minutes in he mother's classroom waiting for the bell. One thing about have a mother as a teacher you got to school early which was where Holly read. When the bell rang she picked up her monstrous books and went to Language arts class. She loved her teacher who was a fan of sarcasm and energy drinks. This was her favorite class 'cause she had it with her friend April. That used to sit together but now they have a seating chart. Holly found this unfair. She wasn't the one who did the talking. Well she probably was but she didn't notice. Class went by in an incredibly slow blur. Then was advisory which was a blow off class where they did the morning announcements and the pledges. Then Algebra where there was a test. Then Spanish which had a quiz. Than science which seemed to hang in the air like an unwanted fog. When she met up with her mom after school and they exchanged there usual "how was your day?" "good" talk she was gone. Gone from school and was now sitting at the laptop narrating her day. She stopped to take a bite of her Ramen Noodle. She thought how odd it was writing about someone who is writing about someone who is writing about someone etc. She decided it was time to go and and hit the finish button.
Sooooooooooooooooo, how'd you like my story? That all actually happened. Isn't my day exciting? I'm glad to be done. well gtg.
