Have you ever had a day where you have to study for more than one quiz/test? Well, this story is about that forget-my-life moment.

At home

I get home from school around 6:45 p.m because I had practice after school. I’m thinking it’s no big deal because I don’t have a lot of homework anyway.

I should’ve known something was up when I thought I didn’t have a lot of homework; that is usually a rare occasion.

So, I sit down and open up my planner to see what little homework I have for the night. Of course I get immediately depressed when I realize I have four quizzes tomorrow.

The worst part is two out of those four quizzes require me to read a chapter in my book. There goes my relaxation time.

Dejectedly, I take out my notes and books so I can study for all of these assessments tomorrow.

However, while I’m doing this my mom walks in and asks, “What are you doing?”

My reply is, “I’m getting ready to study for all of these quizzes I have tomorrow. I swear my teachers are conspiring against me! It’s as if they don’t make their quiz the same day as another teachers then the world is going to end! NEWSFLASH: it isn’t! So move your darn test to another day! And…”

My mom cuts me off saying, “Calm down. You wasted time sitting here ranting to me about teachers, quizzes, and the world ending. Start studying; it’s already 7:35,” and she walks out.

*Scoffs* I finish setting up my things so I can study.

4 hours and 2 cups of coffee later…

At this point I’m delirious and jumpy from studying for so long and drinking coffee late at night. And I’m mentally arguing with myself… or is it myself and my bed?

Either way it goes my bed is now calling me, saying, “Don’t you want to lay in me?”

Me: Yea.

Bed: Come on and get in. I’m warm and soft.

Me: But I have to study.

Bed: It’s okay… leave the books alone and come sleep.

I shake my head and snap out of it and get back to studying. I have two more subjects left, but luckily they are my best two.

1 hour, some Skittles, and a cup of soda later…

“Whoo yepidoo! I’m done!” But after 5 hours of studying, two cups of coffee, a bag of Skittles, and some soda I’m on a sugar high. Thus, I’m too energetic to go to bed, which sucks because I’m mentally exhausted.

How am I supposed to sleep?

10 minutes later…

Zzzzzzzz
