Full-time student and barista at Starbucks.

Wake up to Hello Kitty alarm clock at 7h30.

Look at sleeping boyfriend and silently moan about how he can wake up at 10 and be to school on time.

Put on clothes (that may have already been worn two or three times).

Make it to the bus stop by 8.

Get to school at 8h40.

Do homework from the night before.

Sit in class from 9h15 until 12.

Run to the bus stop to see if I can make the next bus, or wait until 12h45 (as is usual).

Get home around 1h30.

Eat lots of food, while vegging out on my computer or watching the tele.

Usually after about 2 hours of this, I have to go do whatever homework is assigned in my online classes.

After about an hour, I have to change into my work clothes.

I walk about .75 miles to work.

[Clean a buttload, deal with snobbish people/co-partners, make weird drinks for myself, clean some more, make drinks or ring on the cash register.]

Finally, at around 11 or 12, we are done closing the store.

[Closing includes: pulling carafes, milk containers, mats, coffee brewers, syrup holders, blenders. and other miscellaneous things to be sanatised, stocking cups and lids, stocking drinks and food area, stocking beans, sweeping and mopping, bringing in umbrellas, marking out pastries/sandwiches, closing tills, collecting any tips, vacuuming and sanatising espresso machines, wiping everything down, bringing in the tables and chairs from outside, and then locking the doors for the money to be counted.]

Walk home the .75 miles.

Sit on the computer another hour or so if I am not too tired.

Take a shower, maybe, if I'm feeling like being hygenic.

Get naked and go to sleep, after setting Hello Kitty alarm clock.

Rinse and repeat.
