Two Ways of Life

Tik, tok, tik, tok, ringggggg!...
Turn off the alarm, get up, take a shower, put some clothes on, eat breakfast, go to school, have classes, skip lunch, register me in the exams, get back home, do nothing, sleep.
Tik, tok, tik, tok, ringggggg!...
Turn off the alarm, get up, take a shower, put some clothes on, eat breakfast, go to school, have classes, skip lunch, sneak into the study room, get back home, do nothing, sleep.

Tik, tok, tik, tok, ringggggg!...

Annoying, isn't it?
Now try to imagine, every single day of you life, like this.
Same faces, same places...
Scary?
Perhaps, frustrating!...

And then grown people are shocked, that we hate school and decide to explore other paths that lead us to momentarily happiness --> 'Drugs, Sex and Rock 'n Roll!'

There's nothing I could say to you; Nothing I could ever do to make you see; What you mean to me; All the pain, the tears I cried; Still you never said goodbye and now I know; How far you'd go; I know I let you down; But it's not like that now; This time I'll never let you go; I will be!

The alarm started ringing the morning wake-up song, on Mega FM (88.0). You move your arm to shut it down and to gain some will to get up on a Monday morning.
Finally you convinced your parents to let you ride your bike and get to school on your own.
And, as always, your friend is at the meeting spot outside school. You greet her and wave your hand to the doorman saying "Hey!". While  you are talking about your plans, you notice that your sister is hugging tightly one of her friends, as if something was wrong.
You go and see her,
and she is crying compulsively,
you don't know what to say at this kind of situations, so you just ask what is wrong and as a reply she screams "Go away!"
What a shame!
It hurts so much
Being disposed or replaced by someone your sister barely knows.
Shameful!...
So you just walk away.
The bell rings, announcing the first class in the morning. After such heartbreak, you prefer skipping Math class, looking for some free bench, you end up laying on the grass, watching the clouds float peacefully in the blue sky. Closing your eyes, feeling the breeze tousling your strings of hair, you slowly drift away.
However, someone is keeping an eye on you.
"Boo!"
You squeak, waking up abruptly from your nap. It is your BFF, Emma, who is tickling your tummy, "I think PDP is checking up on you." Emma notes.
You smirk, "Well, he can watch while he can; once level 1 is ready to start, he's going to regret it."
"He's not wearing glasses, today!" Emma noticed "Ohhhh, now we can't have a souvenir from level 0 strike" you complained.
And both of you and your BFF, roll on the grass giggling, while PDP finally looked away.
