"day in the life"

Normal day, well it depends on if a normal day is a monday or a Wednesday. Then tuesday and friday are the same as wednesday and thursday is like a monday, and well weekends have a norm that usual merges together.
Only difference between the mondays and wednesdays is how early I get up. Mondays its four a.m. for swim practice, and the other days, well I get two more hours of sleep.
Swim practice before school is actually crossfit, there's swimming involved but usually I have to get ready for school before then. For that we have a coach, who my parents used to joke was a figment of my imagination, because the only time anyone sees him is at practice and usually the swimmers and our swim coach, Jeannine are the only ones up.
He enjoys making comments like, "If you pass out you can go home." He also gave us all nicknames when he started coaching us. The nicknames are things like; Sleepy, Rich kid, Punky bruster, New York, Big country, my people, beast mode, denim... I had a nickname at some point but then I think Jeannine told him I didn't think he knew my actual name and he started calling me Bailey.
So thats crossfit, and then well, I go home and grab my back pack my sister is usually ready by then, and then school, which is a pretty well known drill.
Classes, break, Classes, Lunch, Classes
And so the school day is over.
After school my mom picks me up, and usually we're very close to being late to swim practice, which unnerves me (being late). I grab my equipment bag, change into my practice suit and go sit on the mats with my team.
Practice.
My shoulder starts to hurt to a point where my coach either makes me get out or kick.
Practice is over, and I either ride home with my parents.
Dinner.
Then by this time it's almost nine and all I have done of my homework is what I did at tutorial, and on mondays and thursdays, I usually begin to find it exceptionally difficult to stay awake, but alas, I have homework from 6 classes and I go to sleep from anywhere from 12 to 1 a.m.
