Hitting the snooze button on her phone, Teena refuses to get out of bed. It is 6:30AM and it would be cold outside of the blankets. As the alarm rings again, she tells herself she has to get up. After getting ready, she heads to the living room where breakfast has already been prepared for her. Her dad wakes up earlier to make sure she has the most important meal of the day. Teena sits down and enjoys her sandwich with an egg sunny-side up, just how she likes it. Thank you, dad! Finally ready to leave, she puts on her shoes and rushes out to catch the train. Speed walking down two blocks, she gets to the train station just as a 6 train closes its doors and speeds away. The next one is in five minutes. That’s not too bad. As she waits, she observes the people making her way out of the train station. Isn’t she cold wearing that? So many unfamiliar faces walking past. She hears the rumbling of a train coming as it slowly comes to a stop at the station. As she steps into the train, she realizes a strong pungent smell in the train. A woman runs out to the next cart just making it before the doors closed. Teena switches carts at the next stop. The train pulls to a stop at 23rd Street. Teena exits along with a crowd of people, mostly containing Baruch students. She bumps into a friend, Lucy. Lucy, having known Teena since high school, smiles when she sees Teena. Lucy is surprised to see her so early in the morning. However, she notes how tired Teena looks. She has always recalled Teena with a friendly personality. Not having see each other for a while, they catch up with each other as they make their way to Baruch.
