WAKING

n; the state of remaining awake

marked by full consciousness or alertness.

You went to bed at 2am because you're helping a friend get through their relationship stuff, nonetheless, you had a pretty interesting day at school.

So your friend gets her nose pierced while you're off doing whatever you were doing last night. She comes to school today and has to take it out, being that it's against school rules. When you see her in first period, it's red and she's upset, on the verge of crying. You and another friend try to help her, and take her to the bathroom, where she tries to put it back in but it's hurting her. She wants you to put it in because you've got a nose ring. Like that makes you an expert...

So you stick your finger up her nose and eventually get things where they should be. You both want to be sick. You need sugar or something, since the pit of your stomach is churning. Yuck. At least she's happy.
