@Graduation Goggles

Your eyes groggy, still held shut with some kind of combination of crusty makeup and eye boogers. The glowing red silhouette of four digits on an alarm clock slowly seeps through a small open sliver between your eyes. As the shapes slowly form a legible time, you jolt up in your half made bed. With an electric jolt, your heart jump started the rest of your body to get out of bed...

You're late... second time this week.

You catch a glimpse of your showerhead, yearning for a hot shower in hopes of waking up but the time simply wont allow for it. You throw on your hoodie, and glance at your mirror indecisive between shaving off the merest minute to put on clean pants, or to get another use out of the stained sweatpants you are still in from the night before.
