How are you?

Horrible. I stubbed my toe

on my way into the shower.

The water did not warm up

and my shampoo kept on dripping into my eyes.

     Fine. When I woke up this

     morning, I heard bird singing,

     the sun was shining,

     and I knew it would be a good day.

Horrible. I left late without a lunch.

I had to walk because my mom took

the car and I was late so I got detention.

 My homework fell out of my book

on the way to school and I got a zero.

During lunch, I had to wash desks and

sweep the floors for my punishment.

     Fine. My lunch was already made

     and I thought I would walk

     to school since it was such a beautiful

     day. My favourite clothes were warm

     from the dryer and my homework

     was all done.

Horrible. How can I have a good

day when it does not matter

to anybody else?

     Fine. When I got home,

     everything was well. Nobody

     was fighting and I did not have

     any homework. I was able to

     relax and catch up on my sleep

     without shouts from above.

But that is not what happened.

It was just a dream.
