High school hell or not

“Ladies and gentleman I present to you the class of 2012!” Principle Jones announced over the microphone.

We line up and turn towards the crowd. Everyone is staring at us with twinkling eyes. Parents, grandparents and even great grandparents all started applauding as we went down from the stage. I look around for my parent and find them in the back row three seats from the right waving like mad at me.

Val comes up to me wearing a bright smile on her face.

“I can’t believe it’s all over! All these years of hell in this place we call school and now we start out as young adults in the wilderness known as the world.

Val has this weird concept of thinking that once you graduate high school little elves are going to chase you around till you end up in college…but I won’t argue because she packs a mean punch.

Someone taps my shoulder. I turn around and I’m attacked by someone jumping on me resulting in both of us piling up on the ground.

“Oh what the hell.” Val says and then jumps on top of us.

“Guys I got someone’s butt in my face and a finger in my eye.” I mumble which is kind of difficult considering you’ve got a butt in your face. Let me tell you that is not a pretty sight.

“Sorry gorilla!” Abigail said making her way off of me. Abigail started calling me gorilla when I got stuck on the gorilla bars in the park for five hours. Fun.

“Yeah, tell that to my eye” I said closing one eye.

“Arg matey Ire shall do that” Abigail said before bursting out in laughter.

“I can honestly say I’m gonna miss this place, all the good pranks happened here from gluing Mr. Hanbridge to his chair to putting fish in the pool and running around screaming the aliens are coming. Ah good times.” Val said looking towards the old building.

“Now off to college where all the cute guys are!” I said happily.

“But first you’re going to help me move all my easels and art supplies over to your house. Isn’t that just fun. You, me and Mr.Sniffles all around my art room picking up all my junk and to top it all off, we have to get that room clean before the renovators show up tomorrow morning.” Well ain’t Val just a party pooper. Hmmm party pooper, party pooper…

“Earth to Jessie, come in Jessie are the aliens back?” Val asked waving a hand in front of my face.

“Huh? Oh sorry zoned out a bit there.” I said slowly. That’s me always spacing out in the middle of a conversation.

“SO ladies, let’s go do some packing! Last one in the car is a rotten egg!” Val said before rushing off to the car.

“You have one crazy friend you know that Gorilla.” Abigail whispered while walking by my side.

“I know Abby, I know”
