The Best-Laid Plans ...

[bloodyrosemccoy]

Today’s object lesson:

 

You can plan out your routine for morning classes all you like. Your plan can include a schedule for getting the required amount of sleep, quick breakfasts, and Earl Grey tea and anything else you can think of to handle hours that you don’t normally get along with.

 

But it’s all kind of pointless unless you remember to set your bloody alarm clock.

 

Probably hurt my sociolinguistics professor’s feelings when I didn’t show. She can blame my stupid clock.

Don't feel too bad. I once slept through the first hour of a calculus final. And I'm normally almost a morning person!

My brother forgot the SAT in high school. Halfway through the morning the peace at our house was shattered by an epic expletive.

Fortunetely, they were nice and let him reschedule.

Eeeesh...

My roommate woke me up when she came back from breakfast by asking if I'd finished early. The first thing out of my mouth was a string of curses, then there was a giant thud as I sat up too fast and hit my head on the ceiling (bunk bed), next thing I know she's shoved a granola bar and a bottle of water into my hand and I'm out the door.

The final took SIX hours. That was a really bad day...

What was the expletive? Anything good?

Ugghh, that sucks! :( I swear, college students should get one free "Oops, I overslept" absence a term, haha.
