This morning I woke up to the incessant ringing of our dorm room phone, followed by my roommate's Hebrew croaks. I shoved my earplugs further down my ear hole, and pulled my blanket over my head and let out a little groan. Her mom always calls at 9 in the morning. A decent hour, but not by my standards.

I finally woke up at 11, and realized I went to bed with my contacts on. I wore glasses today to amend my mistake. I need wax earplugs.
