Anyways, on monday my little sister was going to go to the cinema with some friends and since she does not have her own phone I graciously let her borrow mine. After coming home she gave it back to me and I saw that she spammed it with selfies, but I thought oh well, deleted them and went on with my life. What I did not notice though was that she fucked with my settings as well and the clock was 1 hour behind.

Oblivious to this information, I set my alarm to ring at 7 and went to bed. I am a heavy sleeper so my alarm is the scene from pulp fiction when the lady screams, “Any of you pricks move and Ill have to shoot every last motherfucking one of you”. As I was tired from life in general I fell asleep immediately. In the morning I woke up and listened… no alarm clock. At first I thought I just woke up earlier but I checked my wristwatch and it was already 7:15. I quickly hopped out of bed at an ungodly speed, cursed repeatedly, grabbed my phone, my bag, and went on my way to school.

Luckily I arrived just before the bell rang at 7:29. I took my seat, plumped my bag with my phone in it on the floor, and pretended to pay attention. All was going well, until 8:00 when disaster struck. The alarm went off, everyone turned towards me, I fumbled trying to shut it off so instead I just took the whole battery out, blushed blood red, asked to go to the bathroom and spent the rest of the day there.
