I am a morning person so waking up at 5am is not that hard for me. Working all the way in 42nd and Lexington means I have to take the number 5 train at 7am to not be late for work. It’s the first winter I spent in America and oh shux does it get cold. I slept with flannel pajamas and a sweat shirt because the heat is kept low to save money. I wake up in time for fajr prayer then do my routine in the morning of showering, dressing with all 3 layers, and then heading out to the subway about 5 blocks from home.
