Chapter 3: First Day
Prologue)
September 2nd, 2019
When I awoke, it was about 10:45am, so as soon as I was dressed and out of my bed; I continued on with my daily routine.
My routine consists of walking my dogs, eating breakfast and washing my face/brushing my teeth. But now since I have joined soccer this school year, every weekday except for Friday is when I have practice. Soccer practice starts at three and ends at five, its very tiring..
From the birds chirping, to the sunlights glare, I count tell today was gonna be exhausting. However it is what it is, right?
Plus with my siblings at school for the day, I don't have to waste energy on yelling at them. So I happily finished my routine and by the time I looked at my phone, it was already 11:52am. So I thought it would be best to maybe hurry up to get my haircut, since I did have some time in all to spare. However by the time I got to the barbershop it was packed, and when it was my turn to get my haircut; the time was already 1:25.
I didn't get out of the chair til 2:44, so I had to hurry to practice...here's an image.
From my house to the barbershop is like a 15 minute drive and from there to my school is pretty much a 20 minute drive. So to say, I had my dad go from there and back just to get me to practice and get my hair cut. Thanks to him I was able to get there at 3:17 and actually just go over our positions and teamwork. We would practice drills and build endurance, nothing new really..
Like most athletic kids, I was doing fairly well; due to my good reflexes my coach has made me a goalie. Though that won't my only position to play, it depends on who we go against. It's tiring but I guess it's worth it, though it's bogus that school starts tomorrow.
I mean I've been coming up to the school for about a week now, so I've kinda got a head start on the schools layout since my practice is at the school; and with school starting tomorrow.. let's just say things will be interesting. New students, teachers, classes , grading system and even obstacles..
I made sure to set my alarm for 4:00 am, because I needed some time to pack my school supplies and stuff. Since right now my book-bag is dry (empty), plus if I wake up early I have a better chance of getting the supplies I want. If my siblings try to pick their own stuff, they'll most likely pick up anything they don't need and something I might.
I already know that since I have an art class this year, I am going to need a lot of mechanical-pencils; to sketch, draw, outline, etc. An speaking of school I made sure to give myself an objective, and that objective is to only focus on myself. That being said, there's no room for helping others who cannot help themselves; or worry about the many bullies at school. This year I will knock out anyone or anything in my way, and that's a commitment.
Monday was Labor Day, and on that Labor Day afternoon, my mother had distributed some school supplies amongst me and my siblings. Though me and my big sister had to get the most supplies, since we were both in high school. Besides that, the rest of the day went by pretty fast. From me laying down in my room, talking on the phone, or watching Tv. Eventually morning turned into noon, then afternoon, and eventually that turned into night.
I stay up for a little though, since I did get a call from my girlfriend. She had called me at 8:42, and by the time we got off; it was already 11:15. Then I couldn't really get no sleep, and by the time I did it was 11:42.
—————————-The Next Day
Beep* Beep* Beep*..Beep* Beep* Beep*..)
"Nick!"
"Mm"
"Niiick turn that alarm off!"
Not wanting to hear my little brothers complaining, I slowly yet sleepily pressed stop. I then grabbed my phone and looked at the time, 5:00 am was shown on my phone, so I glance at my window. Usually when I wake up at 5 am it don't be this dark. But that was the sleep talking, and as a result, I went back asleep.
I was then awoken by my big sis calling my name, saying "Nick it's 6:16 get up". So I did what I didn't wanna do. I left my bed.
Put on deodorant, got dressed, all that good stuff.
By the time I got to school it was 7:18, good only three minutes late. Though, the rain did throw me off a little. But hey, it's a good thing I decided to wear a jacket. Though, my sister was upset, since she didn't think to bring one.
"Nick!"
"What?"
"bro, this rain is soaking my pants?"
"Well, you should have worn a jacket" I then laughed, before reaching into my pants pocket and pulling out some gum.
By the time we made it past the school gate it was 7:20 am, the school staff was outside handing out schedules to the students.
"Last names A through J stand here!" says a women, "last names K through Z over here!" shouts another. Like the rest of em, I stood in the line and got my schedule..
While walking through the school doors I was greeted by metal dete was, and a few security guards. I didn't really pay it any mind though, just sat my backpack on the conveyor belt and proceeded. Once that was done me and the other students kinda sped to class. Though our teachers wouldn't mind, since we were late because of how they were distributing schedules and all. So in the end a tardy pass will not be needed, and the day could start. Day one of my sophomore year..I don't think a rainy day will be a good day.
