Sleep and School

It’s still light out. I shouldn’t have fallen asleep so early. She wakes me up and yells at me to eat. It’s 6:00 pm. But she can’t stop me from falling asleep on my homework at 7:00. When I lie down, There’s no stopping me! I’m going to… Fall asleep… I have so much to do, but I… Zzz… I’m supposed to wake up at 6:00 am. But I’ve been awake since I woke up at midnight. I watched the sun rise, alone. I didn’t do my homework. I could have, but I never do.
