Sleep

I looked at the clock for the millionth time today. Still 1:02...am. Groaning I rolled over only to fall off the bed and onto the floor. I laid there for a while hoping to fall asleep. Not like it ever worked, but here's to trying. After laying there for a few minutes, I decided to work on my homework. It was due after tomorrow, but it's not like I'l getting any sleep.

I took out my math homework.
5x^2-6x+89=0. Great. Great. I don't know this. I'm going to fail. Not like I'm not a failure. After spending an hour on other questions like this, I finally finished all 10 questions.

Now, social studies. Endless writing of notes I have no idea what they mean. Same thing for science. Random words that we write down to understand but fail because I can't understand anything.

I looked at the clock, it was 5 now. I'd do Language Arts at school. The assignment isn't due until next month anyway. I put all my stuff in my bag.

I tip toed to the kitchen careful not to wake up my dad who was drunk on the coach. I quickly made myself a sandwich, putting it in my lunch box. I put my wallet in my bag , then went to leave. Suddenly, due to my stupidity, I tripped makeing a loud sound as some plates fell to the floor. Uh oh.

I looked behind me to see my dad walking towards me, angry. I quickly got to my feet and bolted out the door to school.
