The 1st Day of School

The time has come around once again... happy first day of school! The first thing that I must mention is that waking up this morning was so hard!! Since we only have one bathroom, we all have to take turns. That meant this morning that my sister had to get up at 5:45. I didn't want to wake up that early, so I was permitted to push the snooze button and sleep in late(r) to 6 in the morning. I know, 15 minutes, but it still was nice. We left on time, but my sister left her cell phone in the house, so we had to turn around (luckily, we didn't make it out of the subdivision), and I had to run up and get it. She also said that she left her Ipod in the house as well, and I was frantically searching for it, but couldn't find it anywhere. It was in her purse. In the car. Anyway, all these shenanigans made us leave 10 minutes later than we had planned on. When we finally got to school, the road were clogged up with our fellow students. I made it to class on time, but I would have liked to have had some extra time.
My classes were all okay, and it turned out that I had some friends in classes that I didn't know about until I walked into the class and saw them sitting there. But really, a full day on the first day? Who's genius idea was that? They should just be lined up against a wall and shot. The day seemed to drag on forever. It's like going from 0 to 60 instantly. And to top it off, quite a few of my teachers decided that it was a good idea to give homework on the first day of school. See what this full day did? Now we actually have to do work on the first day! Jesus! By the end of the day, I was tired. Am tired. Then I had to ride the bus home, which was a nightmare. My sister works on Mondays and Tuesdays after school, so I'm left to ride the bus home, and until November, my brother has cross country every day after school, which means no ride home from the middle school for me. I don't have a problem with riding the bus home, but when you have to go to the middle school to pick up students there, and then drive home, then you get out of school at 2:27 and get home at 3:30. Add on top of that a bus driver who's screaming at us that there is no bus number 74 (which we were told at registration was our bus) and that this is the right bus and you can begin to see why I would have preferred to been picked up instead. Sounds fun, doesn't' it?
After getting home, I went out with my dad to the AT&T to find a phone to replace mine (that died on me a month ago). When we finally decided what phone to get, it turns out, they aren't in stock. So we had to leave empty handed. I've been working on my homework since then, which is no small feat, what with the wind blowing my papers around outside. I had to go get a giant eraser from inside to use as a paperweight.
After reading what my day has been like, you might come to the conclusion that I haven't enjoyed myself, which would be wrong. This day hasn't been that bad. I may have had some minor mishaps and complained about the early start time, but I did enjoy seeing all my friends again and beginning a new school year. I might not have been as excited to begin school again as in previous years, but today has been alright. Now I just have 179 days left to deal with.
