CLASS: Your heavy eyes struggle to stay open. Your head inches closer and closer towards the mucky desk infront of you. Aware of all the surrounding students, and the teacher just a few meters away, you shake your head desperately trying to stay conscious. The complete silence of the room lays all your focus on the tapping of keyboards. The resonating sound rings around your drifting mind
ARRIVING AT SCHOOL: This morning is different for you. It’s busy. People everywhere. The time is precisely 8:30, you’re not late. The frosty air fills the car as you open the door and reluctantly slide out. As you cross the road you remember to look both ways, the road is not empty anymore.
Comfort in distraction
