It was one Monday morning. I woke up and looked at my phone I was blinded by the brightness of the screen so I lowered the brightness , the time was 7:05 am. I then got up very quickly because I didn't want to be late to school again. I quickly got up and opened my closet to find some clothes. I realized I forgot to do my laundry yesterday so I didn’t have any clean shirts. I began to get very frustrated thinking about what I was going to wear. I dashed to my brothers room to ask him to let me borrow a shirt.

I then go to the bathroom to brush my teeth. As i’m running back to my room I tripped and fell, “ahhh s**t my knee” i yelled. “What's wrong?!” “Why are you cussing so loud?” I hear my mom yell from her room. “Nothing mom I just tripped and fell im okay” I replied. I returned to my room and quickly got ready for school. When I was done I went into the kitchen and pulled out some frozen waffles from the freezer and put them in the toaster. I wanted to eat real quick so that I don't go to school on an empty stomach we all know that feeling when it's quiet in class and your stomach is growling. I quickly ate my waffles then I grabbed my backpack and headed out the door.

As I walked out of my house I felt as if I was forgetting something. As I reach for my keys to unlock my car I realize I forgot them. I dashed back inside to grab them but they were nowhere in sight. I began to get frustrated again, frantically looking for them. I finally found them in one of my jean pockets.

As i'm walking out the door I hear my mom say “I better not get a call from school that you were late again”. “Okay mom” I replied. I quickly dashed out the front door and ran back to my car and by the time I came out I looked at my phone to check the time and it was already 7:18. I quickly unlocked my car and started it. School is still 5 minutes away so I knew I was going to be late once again. I waited about 2 minutes to warm up my car then I took off to school.  

As i'm driving to school going 45 in a 35 mph zone im hoping all the lights are green. Luckily there was no red lights and I just drove past all the stoplights. I looked at my rearview mirror and I see a police car coming right behind me. He began following me so I went the speed limit. He then turned on his sirens and passed me very fast as if he got an emergency call. I thought he was pulling me over for speeding but he was just passed me up. I continue my drive to school.

As I pulled into the school parking lot I realized the parking lot was full. I began to get very frustrated because I couldn't find a parking spot and I was already late. I thought I found what appeared to be an empty parking spot but I didn’t fit because some a**hole didn’t  park correctly so his car was sticking out of the white line. At this point I was just very frustrated, I began to drive to drive to the other side of the parking lot when finally I find an empty parking spot. I quickly parked, got out my car, and began to walk to class. I had to park all the way on the other side and my class was in C building so it was a 5 minute walk from the parking lot to my classroom.

As i'm walking to class I run into my friends Fernando and Eric. “Where you guys going?” I asked them, “Were bout to go smoke wanna come?” Eric responded, “Nah i'm good I gotta get to class yall be smooth” I replied. I continued to walk to class then I checked the time on my phone. It was already 7:35, I was 10 minutes late to class. As I walked into my classroom I was greeted by Mrs. James. I took a seat and started my
