After two weeks without school for Christmas Break, school was back in session at Eastside High. Unfortunately, Lanie had developed a habit of sleeping in over the break, so she wasn't ready to start waking up early again.
Fortunately, she had her roommate Rachel to help her out. "Lanie," Rachel said. "Lanie, wake up!"
"Mmph."
"Come on, Lanie!" said Rachel. "We've gotta get ready for school!"
"Ugh." Lanie brushed her hair out of her face and looked up at her best friend. "Why do we have to wake up so early?"
