Penelope tosses and turns throughout the night because of some many reasons such as there is dirt touching her, the room is hot or freezing, and/or her muscles are very irritable. Suddenly, her alarm is buzzing and she just lays there, but it starts to irritate her because it keeps getting louder. So, she gets up to throw it across the room. Then, she slowly goes to get her clothes and towel for a shower, in which she takes like 30 minutes because she really just wants to be in the bed still. She gets out and transforms her hair trying to make her appearance a little better because she is very self-conscious. She then struggles to find something to eat, but then she settles for cereal. All of sudden it's 7:20 so she has to leave for school. She gets to school and sits in her car waiting for her ex that parks right next to get into the school because she is afraid to see him face to face. So, her first class is Algebra 2, in which she just sits in and does random stuff on her computer and occasionally looks up at what the teacher is doing because she understands math quickly. Her second class is Chemistry, in which she sits in the back and tries to figure out what the teacher is trying to demonstrate. Her third class which is Health Science is her favorite class because her classmates actually talk to her and she gets to learn the skills to be a future nurse. Now, her fourth class is just study hall, where she just sits there wondering if she should study, take a nap, or just to do something random. Then, at 1:20 the bell rings and she is ready to get to her car so she can roll her windows down and blare her music going home down the back roads. Driving home is her favorite time of the day because she feels happy for a moment. Then, she gets home and tries to lay down, but then remembers that she has to be at work in 30 minutes so she rushes to get ready and leaves. She sits in her car til it's time to clock in because she really wants to rest her eyes. She finally has to go clock in and then as soon as she gets in there they hand her a headset to take orders. She starts to take orders and already somebody has come through with a bad attitude and it really just ruins her day. Then, she finally gets a break that flies by because why not. She comes back into a huge mess because they just had a lot of orders come through, so she has to jump in and try to get everything back in order. She is just so ready to go home, but her manager just keeps doing other things and she just keeps saying "Hey, it's a lot of minutes past 10". Then, the manager finally says she can go so she literally runs out of the store to her car and flies home. She gets home and thinks about eating dinner, but she doesn't because she is too tired. She gets a shower and goes to lay down, then she remembers that she forgot to give a mom a hug goodnight. She tosses and turns throughout the night for many reasons.

All of a sudden she remembers that it might be Thursday, when she has guard practice, which is not as fun as she thought it would be and her mom says she doesn’t need to do so she could work more. At practice she is thinking about so many things besides what she should be doing. Then, of course she keeps messing up and not remembering the work. Then, it is 3:30 and she gets to go home and try to lay down. She gets home and gets a call to come to a hospice center because her aunt is in there. She gets home around 9:00 p.m. She is really needing to study for three tests she has the next day, but she is so tired and hungry. She’s hungry so she tries to get something to eat, but her father had tried and failed at cooking some spaghetti. So, she just gave up and went to lay in the bed, but she couldn’t fall asleep. Suddenly, her alarm is buzzing and she just lays there.
