Every morning, when I wake up, if I'm sober enough, I roll over, take a look out the window, and thing "Boy, today's going to be another waste."
And I'm usually right.
Wake up around 6 or 6:30. Get a shower, shave if I feel like it. Usually I don't. Sit for 5 minutes and watch the morning news to see what tragedy has happened or what atrocity is trendy this week. Get dressed, usually the same pair of jeans, a band shirt, and my ratty Sublime sweatshirt. Amble slowly to the car, and then flip on the radio to Howard Stern or Preston and Steve, whichever one isn't running some inane commercial. If I'm lucky, I'll catch the Bizarre-O File, a bunch of weird news stories, and get to revel in someone else's sadness for 5 minutes.
Fall in to first period about 20 minutes late. Sit for another 20 minutes until homeroom. Walk out of the class with a couple friends, get a soda, and make my way to second period. On good days, we get to play with chemicals and fire. Usually it's just notes or some busy work though. Talk about music, chicks, the previous weekend's debaucheries. Then the bell rings and it's off to third period French, also known as nap time. Wake up just in time for the next bell and sulk over to...god damnit...Algebra II. Just fucking great. I get to listen to a grumpy old lady talk about formulas for 40 minutes. Sometimes I'll be able to sneak in another nap, but she usually has us working the whole class. Finally that's fucking over.
Then it's off to my split period. Period 5/6. Business Technology. The only thing I've learned from that class is how to look busy while fucking around on Uber. That'll probably be a skill I'll need later in life, right? Then that bell rings...god I hate that bell...and now it's time for lunch. Wonder what kind of inedible "food" is being served today...oh great, it's slimy and yellow. In the fucking trash with this thing before it fucking eats ME. Looks like it's another lunch of nachos and Snapple.
Then we're herded off to our 8th period. English for me. I don't really mind English when we're writing or reading, but I fucking hate the vocab. Alright, I get to look at a bunch of words I've already heard and most everyone with a brain knows what they mean. Fuck that. Then it's the final period of the day, Economics. Yes, because I'm just creaming myself to go learn about supply and demand. I like to be as uninformed and stubborn as I can be about my opinion on the economics of the world, and this class is fucking that all up. Thanks a lot, education system.
Trudge over to the bus, maybe after buying an eight of some sticky from one of the many dealers at my disposal. Go home and get baked, watch Drew Carey, sit on the computer for an hour, do some homework, eat dinner, get baked again, watch some t.v. and eventually smoke myself to sleep. Wake up. Rinse. Repeat.
See how bored you were reading that? I'm that bored ALL the time. Jesus!

I'm gonna have to call shenanigans, though. You drive a car to school, but get the bus home?

No, my dad drives me to school. I should be driving but I had some stomach problems and shit in 10th grade and missed a lot of school, and didn't feel like going to summer school last summer.

+2 for getting high and watching drew carey, my favorite passtime.
College will be better. I have Sociology, an hour break, Journalism, and on Tuesdays and Thursdays I have theatre. Monday, wednesday and Friday I'm up at 8 and back to sleep by 12:30.

I'd tell you that it eventually gets better, but replace "school" with "work" and you can see far, far into your future.
