For some reason, that really made me laugh. Perhaps because I strive to get the daily dump out of the way first thing as well.

It varies based on what day of the week it is because of different classes... My first class today was at 9:05, so it's something like this:

7:31: alarm goes off, hit snooze
7:40: get up
7:41: check email and then go to the bathroom, done with both by 8
8:00: shower
8:10: contacts in
8:12: shave
few minutes before 8:20, I get dressed, and comb my hair
Out the door at 8:30, arrive on campus around 8:40 or so, catch the bus to class
