I remember standing outside at 4:30 AM ready to do some calisthenics after joining the Army wishing I was still in school. Bah!! We ran up hill both ways, in the snow and we would share one pair of boots. We were happy when we got hit by a bus!! Bah!! We would jump back up again and say "Thank you, Bus. May I have another?"

Kids these days with their new fangled alarm clocks. Bah!! I was there when they invented morning. Oh Dark Thirty was what we called it. To sleep in until 5:30 AM would make us weep with joy!!

Man its four o'clock in the evening and i'm still tired, becuase I wasted so much energy trying to get up so early. *YAWN* Wow, Shane actually responded to one of my posts.

Well, for our school district, middle school gets on the bus at 7:20, and high school gets on the bus at 6:40. I'm in the middle school right now, so i get some sleep, but really, school should start later, specially when teachers load you with homework, and your up to 1:00 AM and you get 5 hours of sleep. its rediculous.

Yeah i hate it
Here is the "time of dark" hehe and you're so tired all the time. I mean waking up at 7, Jesus H Christ! I go to bed aprox 2 at night every day (OK this is bad but there is nothing i can do about it) so i rarely get good night sleep but even if I sleep 10 hours I still wake up in same mood and sore. Yes at winter its worst, you get that freezing in your bones of waking up that early. Especially in this.. icewind dale im in. I remember I couldnt almost eat breakfast once cos of the damn cold in the morning. It's like a big... puch up your ass. I know how you feel mate. I knew a lot of students that wake up late and run like hell to school without breakfast. It's f...ing... how to say, horrible?

What are you all complaining about? Most of you live in places like Cuba and Greece!

Start complaining when you live in Holland or England, and have to get up while it's still pitch black outside, raining or snowing with temperatures as low as -5 celcius..... honestly, some of you don't know how lucky you are!
