Vital Vocab 8

Hello!

Sorry for the late upload, guys.  This wasn't actually due until tonight this week (for whatever reason), which I totally took advantage of because last night I had to finish The Book Thief for English and study for a map test for geography, which took a while.  But so, happy Tuesday, and my upload will be better (and more punctual) next week.  I promise.

Prompt: --
Vocab (underlined): cursory, cogent, chronological, cerebral, complacent
Grammar Focus: its/it's, colon

Isaac Bade-
     When I got up to my room, I did a cursory think-through of my to do list and collapsed into bed, fully clothed.  It was Friday, and whatever homework still needed doing could be done over the weekend.  As complacent as I knew I could be with that, I turned out the light and faced the wall.
     When I fall asleep, it usually happens over the course of several minutes, like any other person.  But sometimes, it happens so quickly that it startles me.  Whenever I get sucked into a dream like this, there's always something else slightly off: instead of a regular dream, it's always a slightly warped memory.  These dreams, if more emotionally-driven than cerebrally, always seem to have events come and go in chronological order.  It doesn't take an expert to know that my brain's a bit messed up, but often when I wake, it's so cogent that I wonder if its stories were true.
