A Day In a Life

-Time is up! Submit your papers! What?? I’ve barely started. -Time.  Is. Up. I’m looking through my assignment. My paper is like a white sheet just after washing and only my name is written down in the corner. -YOU SHOULD SUBMIT IT NOW.

A day in a life

by Anna Shornikova Sunday, August 9, 2020 We woke up quite early today. It was only 9:45 when I realized that I actually had a good sleep and that Nastya was already awake.
