Glass BeadSowon let out a groan as she crawled out of bed to shut off her screaming alarm clock.
Today was Saturday morning and that meant one thing, today was the day she would attend her first and only overnight school trip thus far. To say she was nervous would be a tremendous understatement. However, the one silver lining in this case was that school would almost be over for the summer, and Sowon could start her internship at the hospital!
