The topic reminds me of the occasion when I woke up at around 5 o’clock in the morning.

To be honest, like many other young people,I am not an early riser. In most cases, I get up at around 7 o’clock, washing and dressing, and going to school. While last April when I got to know that there was a voluntary work aiming to deal with the rubbish beside the Yangtze River, I mean, its riverbank, I was obliged to show up at the gate of the Xuanwu Lake Park at 7 in the morning so that we guys could do more to help the environment.

Actually, the gathering time was quite reasonable, but the place where I lived was pretty far, which cost me at around one and a half hours to reach the gathering point by metro. What’s worse, I was a bit anxious the previous night since I’ve never taken part in any activities like that. So, I spent a lot of time packing, thinking about the activities and so on, didn’t really go to bed until midnight, but woke up at around 4 a.m. and couldn’t fall asleep again, then I just decided to get up.

Believe it or not, getting up early did not tend to be so bad for me, even though it was the first time I had done so inthe last few months. The moment I got on the coach, I just fell asleep again, you know, the driving bus is like a cradle, people could feeldrowsy easily. After one hour’s driving, we finally reached the riverbank and started to work. I would say, thanks to the sleep on the coach, I was totally freshened.
