Good thing is, I slept well, I woke up on my own 45 mins before my alarm! Bad thing is I woke up feeling that there was a bad guy in my house, so I got up, went to my door, which was locked with a stuck between my dresser and my door, I listened through it, then I removed the stick(scared to death), cracked my door, heard something, so I shut it and put the stick back. Then I looked at my phone, I decided I had to get ready, so I got all my stuff, cracked my door, ran to the bathroom slammed the doors, and locked them quickly! I turned on my music for like two second heard something, muted it, then started again, I turned it up all the way so I couldn’t hear anything, then I got down to wash my hair in the tub, but kept looking back to make sure no one had picked the lock and snuck in to kill me, anyways I finished that, and finished getting ready, it is 8:43 now(two mins before I have to leave) I open the door, my brother’s room is right across from the bathroom, his door is slightly cracked so I kick it open to make sure no one is in there. I hear something downstairs, 8:44 I have to go, I get to the edge of the stairs, I see a shadow and hear moving around, I’m like dying now, I feel like I’m gonna throw up. I start thinking of my first and last karate class, hoping that elbow jab I learned will at least give me time to get to my car and make a run for it. I don’t have any weapons upstairs except a mini pocket knife my aunt gave me last time she was here, and the knife is as sharp as a butter knife. I think maybe it’s just a shadow from the tree outside, so I sneak down a few stairs to where I can see the TV’s reflection in our living room, then the tv turns on, I’m like it must be someone I know, a killer wouldn’t do that, sure enough it was my effing brother. But my instincts were right, it was a bad guy. Oh and then he had the nerve to ask me for an effing Pop Tart, I said no! PS: The reason I didn’t continue karate is because it freaking hurts! If I wanted to pay for pain I would pay someone to put me in the hospital so I could at least miss work for a while!
