The long scar just below her left knee was showing when the bus arrived to take her to the museum. She began to think about the day the scar was created; she was home on a warm summers day and decided to get a fresh bouquet of roses for her table. In her yard it was surrounded by beautiful plants, but her favorite were her rose bushes that she spends most of her time tending to. She was picking the white, red, and yellow roses since those were her favorites. She looked around for one more red one and she saw the biggest, and most beautiful red rose she had to step into the bush to get it, she picked the rose and stepped back and a thorn from the bush had caught her knee and it jerked out as she stepped back. She let out a yelp, and looked at the blood trickling down her leg. She snapped out of her flashback and realized that she had missed the museum so she decided to start on her other plans which included going to the market, turning in her credentials into the college she was attending, and going to work that night.
While in the market she heard a baby screaming and decided to investigate the loud noise, when she rounded the corner there was a baby and a immature child sitting in the shopping cart hitting the baby. But there was no mother around so she wheeled the cart to the front and told the owner that she found two unattended kids, they paged for someone to get them but no one came until a mother came running into the store with her wallet. She explained that she forgot her wallet in the car and had to go get it and she thought the kids would be ok in the basket.
Later that day she went to drop off the credentials and she stopped at her favorite coffee shop to get a coffee, and when she got to the college she was so tired because it took to busses to get there from were she was so she got a soda to drink so she could be a little awake for work that night, but she was so tired that she spilled her soda all over her credentials, and you really had to squint to see the writing. She was so mad it took her two days to fill all of the papers out and she only had two hours till her dead line. She decided to get as much of it done that she could, two hours later a lady called her in saying that the professor was ready to see her she had one more page to fill out. She asked, "how long do I have for this meeting." The secretary said, "thirty minutes." she thought that was plenty of time to get that one page done. When she finally finished and walked in to see the professor he first mentioned that she didn't have to turn her credentials till she started class. She was so relieved to hear that but also frustrated because she had to rush to get it all redone.
After she went to the college she called her work she could not come in today and they said it was ok, they had a substitute they could put in. She went home and cleaned up from her busy day and went to bed in her house of roses.
