stressing, studying, sports, social, sleeping.
24 hours;
1,440 minutes;
86,400 seconds;
1 day.
School for 9 hours
A healthy sleep for 8!
Homework for at least an hour and a half,
studying for 2 more,
a normal practice for another 2
one ½ hour tv show.. if we’re lucky.
On top of that one hour left for,
work
volunteering
clubs
maybe even a social life.
Pointless lectures,
on pointless things,
that will never help in the “real world”.
Math teachers trying to convince how we will use concepts like 30-60-90 triangles sometimes.
Science teachers convincing how covalent bonding will come to play in our everyday lives,
and history teachers showing how memorizing 25 dates will be something that is useful.
24 hours;
1,440 minutes;
86,400 seconds;
1 day;
and all we want are 10 more minutes of sleep
