It’s been a while since I have been living in a dorm and man it’s tough! Doing all this budgeting and my favorite part; sleeping late at night and waking up not-so-late in the morning since I’m just blocks away from the university.
For the past 3 months never will a day would past without being tardy or rather late in one of my classes. I’ll admit that it’s a darn excuse to be late in class knowing that I’m just blocks aways from St. Raymund’s Building.
First of August in 2008, it all happened in that morning. I woke up later that 5:30 and rushed in the bathroom and do my thing. It happened as if the clock stopped and ran out of batteries. I was shocked learning that I didn’t snoozed my alarm clock for the next 5 minutes to extend my sleeping haven. I arrived in school 30 minutes before my 7AM class. IT WAS MY FIRST FOR THIS ACADEMIC YEAR! Man! It feels good!
But, do you know why I woke up that early? ‘Coz it’s the first of the month and the Landlady collects payments for the dorm so I dashed my way out readily to escape her wrath. What a good way to start the month, eh? Cheers!
I have my own “first on the first”, too. What a way to avoid your landlady.
Take care.
