The morning light filtered through the curtains, gently waking me from a deep sleep. I stretched, feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin, and took a deep breath. Today was going to be another busy day, but I felt ready to take it on. I swung my legs over the side of the bed and began my usual morning routine.
First, I brushed my teeth and washed my face, the cool water helping to chase away the remnants of sleep. Next, I pulled my curly black hair into a loose ponytail.
I took a moment to apply a light moisturizer, letting it sink into my skin as I picked out my outfit for the day. Today, I chose a comfortable yet stylish pair of jeans and a simple white blouse. After getting dressed, I grabbed my bag and headed to the kitchen.
As I prepared a quick breakfast, my phone buzzed with a message from Isabel. "Good morning, Elena. I'll be picking you up for school in 20 minutes. Also, you have a shooting scheduled this afternoon. Be ready!"
