Chaos.
That's the one word that can describe what's presently going on. I'm supposed to be ready for the first day of school. I thought that I was prepared but I am so not a morning person.
I was so annoyed that my stupid alarm clock woke me up by five thirty to prepare for school. Monday mornings were not my forte.
Actually Monday mornings were not to be disturbed back in Seattle.
I was to sleep on Monday morning so that I would not encounter Carolyn because I had her in my first class of the day and if I showed, the torment will begin then and there.
I wasn't in Seattle anymore. I was in Hazleton. Small little Hazleton with the population of less than 30, 000 people where I had to go to school by seven in the morning.
Why was I being punished like this.
Realizing that ten minutes had already passed and I was still in the bed in my pyjamas I stood up and went to the bathroom. The bathroom was a lot bigger than my bathroom at Seattle.
My old bathroom.
Its so huge. Sadly I didn't have time to stand and gawk at it as I normally do because I stepped in and bathed like I was bathing to go for a wedding instead of to school. I took my time.
Why would I need to rush anyway, I already knew that I dress up very quickly anyway.
I finished bathing at four fifty and put on makeup. I loved putting on make up because I couldn't do that in Seattle or Carolyn would call me a slut and an attention seeker.
Joanne taught me the basics like how to put on simple make up which comprises foundation, concealer, mascara, eye pencil because she could do a pretty sick cat eye and finally pinkish lip stick to make my lips look fuller.
Why was I trying this hard to impress my new school?
Simple.
I didn't want it to be like my old school. I wanted a change. A positive change that included me changing first.
Change is constant.
Change is good.
Change is what would help me undergo my last year in high school.
I left the house by six because Joanne and Aaron were still sleeping and I didn't want to wake them up and my school as Joanne told me was a ten minute walk from the house.
I didn't eat because I didn't want to embarrass myself by puking when my nerves acted up.
See, I thought of all the ways things could go wrong today. There were a lot.
I knew no one at the school and I don't know if I would be able to act like others. Strong, confident and the whole lot.
In no time I was in front of the school. Hazleton Area High School.
It was your normal everyday school building. I opened the front door to see a hallway in the middle.
Lockers were on one side of the room and the other was an door with the sign Front Office on it. At the end of hallway I noticed was a junction.
It was no surprise that not much people had arrived yet. Afterall, it was not even yet seven.
All of a sudden I felt a tap on my back. I turned around to see a boy about my age looking up to me with a curious expression.
"Uhm, are you getting in?" he said with a taunting voice and a smile on his face.
Once he said that I realised that I was still stand in front of the door.
