At precisely 6 o’clock, the alarm rang.

The day I’ve been looking forward to has finally arrived! I’ve been looking forward to this day for 21 years! This day is amazing! I don't think there are words to describe how awesome the day is!! I am so avid about this day!

Beeeep! I slam my hand down on my alarm clock and jump out of bed. I've been waiting for this day for months. It’s the day of the big debut game against my team's rivals the Washington Wasps.

Ding dong,

The clock plays its sweet song,

The day has come so near,

The arrival of the people I love dear,

I look out the window to the dark night sky,

And think about their plane up high,

The alarm goes off

the defining loudness is

a painful awakening

I didn't think much of it. It was so long ago when I decided to do it. Now that it's here I don't know if I can do it! My sibling runs right ahead, eager to start on this new adventure. I could almost hear him saying "Seriously?

Beep-beep-beep! Finally! Wait- I need to get in the shower. I kick out of my sheets and claw through the depths of my dresser. I grab whatever clothes I think match in my dreary, early morning, teenage state of mind.
