School in a Nutshell
Location
I remember when
I had absolutely nothing to do.
How I would just lay in bed and
wait for something to pass me by
so I could just do
something.
Anything.
I want that back.
I want relaxation.
I don’t want to worry about
colleges
or homework
or drama.
I don’t want
acceptance letters.
I don’t want
perfect scores
on all of my assignments.
I just want sleep.
I want to curl up in bed,
close my eyes,
and pass out.
But all of the
applications,
homework,
complaints
hinder those actions quite significantly.
I have so much to do that all I can do is
lay down
and take a nap.
But when I wake up
from my four hour siesta,
I have more to do then when it starts.
Clean the house,
walk the neighbors dog,
mow the lawn.
Anything that blocks the homework I have to do (which is typically a lot).
That’s how it all starts.
A vicious cycle of just not giving a damn, and then
forcing myself
to do exactly what I don’t want.
Why can’t I just do what I love
for once?
I love sleep.
Can I sleep?
Please?
No.
Of course not.
Why would anyone want
sleep?
Well, because I’m not a day person.
At all.
I'm nocturnal
So I stay up until 3am,
only to have to wake
the next day at
6:30am.
Why does high school
not have night classes?
I would excel at those.
There’s an idea for ya, ICCSD.
Offer a class at about 8pm.
Then I can sleep.
I could finally sleep.
But no. No night classes for you,
ye night owls. You must
wake at ungodly hours,
manage a pile of homework as high as
Everest,
and then go home and NOT sleep.
Don’t ever sleep.
You must remain attentive!
How? Well, we don’t know.
Manage your own damn time.
Do we look like
your mother?
