Based off the game Every Day the Same Dream.

Every morning I wake up at six o' clock.

I turn off the alarm.

I go and brush my teeth.

I change into my work uniform.

I say hello to my family.

I eat breakfast.

I drive to work.

Then I work until eight o'clock.

When work is over, I go home.

I eat dinner.

I change my clothes.

I brush my teeth.

I set my alarm to six o'clock.

I go to bed.

Then the cycle repeats. Over and over and over again. It's a never-ending pattern, the time spent between sleep a monotonous cycle. Life is a straight road with no twists and turns. There is only one path, and that path is black and white.

The time spent in bed is probably my favorite time.

I wake up at six o' clock.

I turn off the alarm.

I go and brush my teeth.

I change into my work uniform.

I say hello to my family.

I eat breakfast.

I drive to work.

Then I work until eight o'clock.

When work is over, I go home.

I eat dinner.

I change my clothes.

I brush my teeth.

I set my alarm to six o'clock.

I go to bed.

Sometimes, when I lay in bed, I stare at my alarm clock. I dislike the noise it makes. It only reminds me of tomorrow. I always debate whether to leave it off or not, but in the end, it always wins. The alarm stays on, and so, the cycle continues.

It helps to know that everyone shares a similar pattern. Still, I don't wish it on anyone. A monotonous life is worse than death, in my opinion. Not that my opinion matters. It never did. It never does.
