Trick

As a 12 year old, school is important for me and I'm always on-time. A lateness bug used to run in the household but the Mum put the clock 20mins early, this helps because we all think we're late so we speed up. It does help that I'm a morning person and out of bed at 5.

Homework

Whenever I never get my homework done I always never show up to class. I never do homework because I always procrastinate or I do it at 5 am in the morning.It seems like everyone notices my absences when they should be worrying about themselves.I'm trying to stop skipping school and learning to do homework and be less stressed out:] It is very hard.

Getting better

I recently changed job and I really told my self that I really had to be on time. At my old job I was never on time. What I did was, I planned to get there 30 minutes earlier then when I was supposed to. Most days I actually made it 30 min earlier and the other days I get there 10-20min early every day. It really feels like it's worth it and my new employer is really impressed with that I'm always on time or even early most days.

Plan Ahead

I prepare everything I need for school on the night before. I also asked my mom to bring me a cold drink every morning. That helps me wake up.
