Minuteman

Troops known as Minutemen were to be ready at a minute's notice and be ready for a battle. They are known as the soldiers that are always ready to go. Have you ever gotten up late and only had a few minutes to get ready before you had to go somewhere? Where did you have to go? what happened, how long did it take you to get ready? Did you make it on time?

I have gotten up late and had to get ready super fast for school. Right when I was ready my ride left me. Then I was late to school.

Um... I used to get up late when I was younger. Normally it would take me about ten mins. to get ready when I only had 5 .So yes I would end up being late. WHICH I HATE.

Oh, yeah. I woke up late for school. That was kind of scary. I think my alarm was like off and it didn't ring. I got ready pretty fast like less than ten minutes and I did make it on time because I'm good like that.

Yes I have gotten up late and had minutes to get ready. I had to go to a saturday soccer practice at pershing. It took me only a few minutes to get all of the things I needed. I got there on time because my dad gave me a ride.

Yes I have, and I was going to school and I woke up very late at 7:30. What happened was that I tried to rush everything I was doing and I got done like at about 7:47. I saved up some time because my hair was curly and I didn't have to do it. I got to school on time but I f that ever happens again I'm just not going to school! ;D

I once had to get to my house in ten minutes because I was outside longer than I supposed to be and I was twenty minutes away from home. Luckily, I started to run and made it with a minute to spare.
