The alarm clock blares in my hitherto silent room. I smash the snooze button, eager to crawl back into the blanket. I mumble an apology to my roommates and close my eyes again, only to snap them open when I realize that it's past 10 o'clock and I am to meet my best friend at Schow Science library in thirty minutes. I jump out of the bed and wash and dress. I exit the Sage with a Pop-Tart in my mouth.
As I run toward Schow Science Library, I consider my choices of classes for the next semester. Should I take Immunology class? I wonder as I chew on the pastry. I make a mental note to give Professor Snow a visit. I choke on my food when an arm slings around my neck. I turn to find my best friend. We share the same burning passion, the study of biology, and we are striving toward researching a prevention for heart related diseases.
She scolds me for eating a pastry again. It is bad for your heart, she says, reminding me yet again that since I'm researching to prevent heart diseases, I must watch what I'm eating too. She drags me to Schow to continue our research on prevention of major arteries. We soon find ourselves debating the best way to develop our own nanotechnology to prevent heart diseases. After countless hours spent researching nanotechnology in Schow, we devise an elaborate experiment to develop nanobot that floats inside the arteries and disintegrates any artery blockage.
We finish the research paper before the library closes and give each other a high five. I gaze out of the window, finding that it is already dark. Under the street light, I see the first snow of the year.
Shivering, I turn toward my friend. "Let's go. I'm ready to crawl back to bed."
