Dawn
I think that it counts as a color right??
Well anyway this is about the sunrise that I see pretty much every day of the week. To be exact I have seen it about 111 of these sunrises in the past year (only seventy left to go!).
Why am I getting up so early, you might ask? Well there is this thing called high school, you may have heard of it. It is this place where your parents send you around age 14 to get your brain stuffed, while you sit, helpless, in a chair for hours on end. They require you to get up at ungodly hours of the morning to go there, so hence the sunrises.

For me there is a lot of work that leads up to the actual sunrise viewing.
My usual morning routine goes somewhat like this.
1) Six-o-clock AM alarm wakes Sabine up
2) Sabine gets out of bed (Jk that is a lie, I fall back asleep till my mom comes and yells at me)
3) Around 6:10 Sabine gets up and eats breakfast
4) 6:20 Sabine gets dressed
5) 6:30-6:40 Sabine brushes her teeth
6) 6:43-6:46 Sabine is rushing to get her stuff together because she is going to be late for the bus
7) 6:49-6:53 Sabine gets on the bus
8) Sabine sees sunrise on way to school (this is the part you have been waiting for right??)
9) Gets to school anywhere from 7:05 to 7:20 (depending the bus driver, we have subs because something happened to our bus driver at the beginning of the year)

I started out by wanting to do this post on one specific sunrisey color, but then I realized that I already used all of those colors (It is getting really difficult to come up with something to write about!!). I looked up some sunrise colors just to make sure I wasn't missing anything, All I could come up with was the "color" (realize that I am using this term very loosely) dawn.
When you look up "the color dawn" and click on trusty Wikipedia nothing helpful comes up except it talks about green and blue particles, like what even are those. I am very disappointed because Wiki is my fave. So I clicked on some other site called the Color Schemer Gallery which had lots of good information for me.
Apparently the color of sunrises vary between pink and yellow and including orange in between. This creates the unique colors that all dawns and sunrises offer.
Actually my previous statement about Wikipedia was a lie. There was some helpful information on there.

The colors that you see at sunrise are the same ones that you see at sunset. But according to Wiki at sunset the colors are brighter because there are more particles in night air than in morning air.
Well that is all, wish me luck getting through the mere seventy sunrises I have left to see this school year.
I really like this!!
