Near the end of the school year last year, my best friend, Cady, pointed out to me that during the school\u00a0 year especially, everyone has an “unconscious routine.” This is exactly what it sounds like, a routine that we all follow without really knowing. My routines are so different this school year, from last year.<\/p>\n
My routine at the year of the year last year was, I’d wake up at around 6:30, get ready, and leave the house for school by 7:00. I’d be the first one at school at 7:20, so I’d go bother a friend in debate who had an earlier morning class. Then Cady would soon follow in suit, and get to school. She’d come get me, and we’d go to the area we call the “commons.” More friends would arrive, and we honestly would just wander around the school until the first bell rang at 8:10.<\/p>\n
I’d go about my day until 2:50, which is when I got out of school since I had an online class. Again, I’d go bother friends in the band hall or sit in on Cady’s English class, until everyone got out at 3:45. Me and Cady would usually go to either Chick-fil-A or McDonalds, where we would get frosted coffees and waffle fries, or chocolate chip frappes and fries respectively.<\/p>\n
And that was our day.<\/p>\n
I think that it’ll be forever be ingrained in my mind.<\/p>\n
Now it’s a little bit different.<\/p>\n
I wake up at 7:10, and get ready as quickly as possible so I can go check in downstairs at 7:30.<\/p>\n
We get to Brookhaven High at around 7:50, where I just sit in my English class until the bell rings at 8:00.<\/p>\n
Then after school I eat dinner outside with people, wait an hour to let my food settle, work out, and then do whatever until it’s time for room check. After room check, I hop in the shower, and then it’s time for bed.<\/p>\n
It’s crazy how much my routine has changed. I really need to ask Cady how her routine is now. It’s usually different for the both of us depending on if it’s the first semester or the second semester.<\/p>\n
My first semester routine of sophomore year wasn’t at dynamic, but I’m glad I got second semester to have with more friends.<\/p>\n
I wonder if that’s gonna be true for my second semester of junior year. Will I grow more as a person, like a did second semester of sophomore year? I swear, that semester is one for the records for me.<\/p>\n
School was settling down, I was meeting new people and making new memories. I honestly miss it a lot. Miss that dynamic I had.<\/p>\n
I need to embrace my new routine, and look forward to second semester.<\/p>\n
I hope it’s a good one.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
