Sept 23 Wednesday

As usually i had to wake up early for my 730am class. I hate waking up soooo early. I was kinda late for my 730am class because i was taking too much time at home getting ready and i left a little later than usually. Lucky my professor wasnt there because the dvd player that we were suppose to use didnt work, so she went to get a new one. We waited 15 mins till she came back so i was all good.
