Trapped in Life

I wake up in the morning to the sound of my alarm. Worst sound in the world. Beep……….Beeep……….Beeeeep………BEEEEP…….…BEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!! I finally hit the snooze button only to be awakened by the same horrific noise five minutes later. As if the alarm clock isn’t enough, my mother comes in and reminds me in a very grumpy voice that if I’m not on time to school, she’s gonna take my cell phone away.

I finally get up and drag myself to the shower where I sit under the hot water feeling temporarily happy. It’s warm and comfortable, clean and quiet, so I am contented…that is until my mom marches into the bathroom and reminds me (again) not to be late for school and yells at me for wasting so much water.  Once I’m out of the steamy tub, the cheerful part of my day (aka. sleep and shower) are now over.
