Exam
I fill in the dots
Answer the questions
But its boring ok
Don’t blame me
Its been quite the day
“If a train leaves the station at 8:15pm and goes 86.279 miles per hour, and is going to station x, 1,698.554 miles away when will it arrive”
What the hell is tht question?
Who leaves the station that late?
I’ll be home eating dinner then
Man I’m hungry
I need to switch it up
I have answered B
4 times in a row
Are they the right answers though?
I hate tests
How much is left?
Is that person cheating off of me?
Am I paranoid,
Or procrastinating?
How much time
Until we have to stop
What does that question say?
Is she looking my way?
Man she is pretty
Its making me giddy
Is that a question about a horse?
Or is it written is Morse?
Or is it about the north?
Or is it about a different course?
I am barely awake
Slap me across the face
Did the alarm just ring?
Am I now free?
