Quartz clock

It’s early, you’re tired, you don’t want to get out of bed for any reason. You know you don’t have anything until 10 so why not sleep? Within a couple of minutes you work up the courage to get up stumble into the bathroom and put your contacts in without taking too long, the day is about to begin. You make your way downstairs, grab a nutrigrain bar and slowly make your way to the garage. Little bits of light start to seep in when you open the garage and a gush of frigid morning air comes in…

Mark is sleeping soundly on a Monday morning. His bedroom is completely dark, without the slightest presence of light. As the time approaches six-thirty, Mark’s alarm clock chimes. “Beep! Beep! Beep!” “Lucy.” Mark says sleepily as he wakes up. “Open the blinds.” Digital blinds dissolve into the bedroom windows, and the room is flooded with the first light of the morning sunrise. Mark’s room is now illuminated and fully visible. After lifting himself out of bed, Mark makes his way to the bathroom…

and I used to go on. No matter what, there was always the guarantee of listening to at least three Coldplay albums over the duration of the car ride. With that being said, “Clocks” is one of my all-time favorite Coldplay songs. THe lyric that always speaks to me is, “ Confusion never stops, closing walls and ticking clocks. Gonna come back and take you home, I could not stop that you now know, singing…” (Coldplay, 2002), because it exemplifies how my time with my family and friends is quickly…

The alarm screamed, waking me from a dream of a monumental journey through a land that had been long forgotten. I moaned and turned the noise off. As I pulled myself upright, a wonderful aroma entered my nose. Mom is cooking bacon. Now I have a good reason to get out of bed. I trudged to the kitchen, and I found Lola, my little sister, squealing and bouncing off the walls. She was excited for her first day of Pre-K. I miss those days. Still half-asleep, I devoured my serving of bacon as I…

I wake up to the sound of my alarm on my phone ringing. I consider myself a morning person, as getting up is always pretty easy. I suppose this is because I know if I don't get up and get to my classes, I'll fail. I didn't used to be a morning person until I almost failed eighth grade, so it made sense. Even though it was Monday, I was still up on time. I know most people have trouble getting up on Mondays in particular, but not me. I had picked my outfit the night before, so showering and…

electronics include, a computer/laptop, printer, an alarm clock, cell phone and a surge protector. These items are not necessary for school, but more of a want. The students can utilize the school library for all of their electronics. However, if the student had their own, then they don’t have to share or go to the library to complete assignments. Also, a cell phone is more of a convenient than a need because all public buildings have phones. The alarm clock may seem more like a need, but we…

The Shot Felt Around The World BEEP BEEP BEEP! My alarm clock stroke 7 A.M. I hit the snooze button just like I always do. UGGGHHHH I screech as I crawl out of bed. I walk to the living room and turn on the news. I walked to the kitchen to brew my daily coffee. As i’m making my coffee, I hear the reporter say, “Currently I am at Dealey Plaza and the weather is beautiful. We’ve just gotten that word that the POTUS will be attending the parade in an open motorcade.” I heard this and my mind felt…

“BEEP BEEP BEEP,” blared my alarm clock for the fifth time in 30 minutes. Initially, the morning began as any dreary December day would: cold, bleak, and lonely. Until now, I had spent a majority of my first high school semester tirelessly optimizing the basic act of waking up. How late could I awaken and casually stroll into class by the 8:00 bell? Indeed, I got a concrete answer: 7:34. As that final alarm sent me scampering into the shower, I noticed my glasses remained on. “No problem,” I…
