【Aiden in English】

School is a sore subject for most kids; even the word carries around groans and sighs. Children are often bored at school, and learning can seem like a chore. So, many don't like to wake up and go to school just because they have to learn or are too lazy, even though they know their parents will still force them to do so. What I don't know is how easy it is to get to the bus stop on time with this simple process.

Getting to the bus stop well before the bus arrives should be simple for kids, but the new generation has many different factors to consider. Most of them are lazy and lack the discipline to wake up on their own. This is why alarm clocks were invented, and an excellent function of some alarm clocks is the snooze bar. It would prevent any dozing off to the sight of darkness outside and the coziness of the blankets. So the first step to waking up early, and probably the most crucial and complex, is to get an alarm clock. If a good, solid, loud ring or beep from an alarm isn't enough to jolt you into reality, I don't know what will. Set the alarm at least half an hour before your school bus arrives to give some breathing room in between. Sometimes, when people see how much time they have, they return to the dream world and oversleep. To avoid this situation, fling off the blankets. The house's crisp, cold morning air should shock you into action like no other, but if you are reluctant to try this, your alternative is to have Mom come busting into the room with a karate kick. Once you are up and going, get dressed quickly. The best advice I can give you here is to pick out your clothes the night before, so no delay or thinking is involved. Don't like considering options at dawn; I'm no different. The next step in the morning process should be one of the longest. Breakfast is today's most important meal, providing the kick-start to the coming challenges. This shouldn't have too much urgency, but chewing like adoesn't make the bus come any earlier. Take as much time as necessary, and once finished, move on to brushing your teeth and washing up. This step varies from person to person because some enjoy taking a quick five-minute shower, while others prefer to brush their teeth as soon as they wake up to eliminate bad morning breath. If what you want to do has additional tasks beyond what I included in this process, then feel free to add them somewhere in the morning. Don't forget to give yourself a few extra minutes on the timer. You're ready, take your school bag, which, to save time, should be packed the day before, and walk outside to your bus stop. If this process is perfected, that bus will come much later.

Children have a natural tendency to be lazy, and waking up early to get to school isn't any different. Sometimes, raising your head off the pillow seems impossible, but if you do, you can avoid oversleeping and get to the bus on time. Sleeping in and delaying school might be appealing, but being tardy is the price you will pay for falling behind or not having the urgency in the morning. It's just a matter of not being lazy, living with the fact that there is school, and waking up to the sound of the alarm.

學校令多數孩童心生鬱悶，一提起它便牢騷滿腹，大家都覺得冗長無聊，上課好像活受罪。要不是非學不可或雖想偷懶但無奈父母強求，誰都不願早起上學。說白了，及時到車站等候校車有啥了不得。

在校車到達之前早早地趕往車站對孩童來說本應不成問題，但年輕一代總有其它理由影響這麼做。不少同伴偷懶，根本不願約束自己正點起床，這就是為什麼會發明鬧鐘及其嚴防貪睡的功能按鈕，說來說去就是要打斷你以為屋外天色死寂漆黑而被窩毛毯柔軟舒適就想繼續賴床的念頭。所以說，第一步應該確保早點醒來，這也是最關鍵最叫勁的地方，為此你必須要有一個鬧鐘，如果音質洪亮的響聲都吵不醒你，那我真不知道還有什麼更好的辦法。趕在校車到來之前三十分鐘起床，給自己留出點富裕時間，不過有時當人們發覺仍能插空再多躺一會兒，往往又合上眼重返夢鄉。為避免這種情況發生，醒來要把蓋在身上的毛毯大腳踹開，室內清晨涼氣襲人，讓你難再迷糊倒頭大睡；假如你克制不住自己，那麼乾脆麻煩媽媽破門而入並以拳腳相送。你一旦醒來，就得抓緊工夫穿好衣裳，這裡溫馨提示，睡覺前最好把次日要穿戴的東西準備好，這樣第二天早起免得費時費腦，順手抄起衣服套上就走。小孩子早起來不及多想，我也不例外。第二步就是早起該做的事情很多，早飯可謂每天最重要的一餐，是你迎接挑戰的開始，切記細嚼慢咽，但大可不必像老牛那樣咀嚼耗費光景，能抓緊就抓緊，吃完趕緊刷牙洗臉，這道程序因人而異，有人喜歡早起花上五分鐘沖個澡，而有人則在起床後立刻去刷牙以去除口臭。如果還有其它這裡沒說的事情要做，你無妨盡情去做，只是別忘記多給自己打出點時間。所有一切就緒，你拎起昨晚早已打理完畢的書包走出家門邁向車站，這時不難發現，校車總比你來得晚。

懶惰出於兒童的本能，早起上學也是天經地義的事情。有時讓腦袋瓜離開枕頭並非輕而易舉，不過一旦克服困難，你就能避免賴床貪睡，正點趕坐校車。睡覺與誤課或許各有利弊，但早起散漫拖拉會造成遲到，其實這不僅僅是懶惰、不願上學、不想要鬧鐘的問題。
