Good Morning

I woke up this morning to the alarm going off. Slowly, I rolled over and hit the snooze button, knowing that I didn’t have to be up for another twenty minutes. The thing was though, the loud, annoying noise didn’t stop. I reached over and blindly slapped the snooze again. When it didn’t stop the second time, I realized that it must be Kelly’s alarm going off in the other room. She wasn’t at home, so I stumbled out of bed to turn it off.

When I reached her room, I went to her bedside table and hit the snooze button. Nothing. “What is with these alarm clocks?” I thought. Angry now, I ripped the chord out of the wall to ensure silence. But the alarm kept going off. I looked around the room and spotted another alarm on Shereen’s bed. I went over and ripped its chord out of the socket as well, but the alarm kept going! I then found an alarm tucked under the bed. Then one beside the closet, in the dresser, behind the door! Freakin’ six alarm clocks in Kelly’s room! I ripped all of their chords out and threw one against the wall. What the hell? Why the hell did she set so many damn alarms!? What is wrong with her? Why did she even need six alarm clocks!?

Then I woke up. The alarm was still going off. I rolled over and looked at my clock. Nothing. I jumped up and ran down the hall to Kelly’s room. Jenna and Dustin had just gone in to shut it off. It was time for me to wake up, so I got dressed and went to class.
