Will You Still Love Me?

1.Keelynn Owens

I'm that girl who sits in the back of the classroom. Nothing ever comes out of my mouth during class and when it does all heads will turn and numerous mouths will drop. Nobody ever remembers my name because I haven't done anything special to make them know it. It is like I am invisible to everyone who walks past me in the halls. When it is time for lunch I sit with one person, who is my only friend. Her name is Sage and we have been friends since Freshman year. We don't talk about much anymore now that she has made some new friends. So after we have finished a conversation it is often filled with awkward silences. You may think that this is sad to live a life. But I like my life like this.  It allows me to focus on what is important. Like getting into the college of my dreams, which happens to be Stanford University.

Stanford has been my dream college for as long as I could remember. It was a place where I could get away and start a new part of my life. It is some where that I could finally be the person I have always wanted to be without having to worry about others judging me. If I become that person now in my Junior year I will likely be called fake. So waiting for college is the perfect opportunity for me to be me.

Besides me wanting to attended Stanford University, I come from a rich family. Both of my parents happen to be surgeons. There are some pros and cons about all this. I'll start with the cons, first off they are never really home except for Sunday's. And secondly  I get dragged to every one of there conferences or hospital banquets. I hate going to them because they are so boring, and all the other teens that go have a boyfriend/girlfriend to bring. Then there is me who sits there with her parents. For the pros of them being a surgeons, money is not a problem for us. So occasionally I will online shop for a few hours. I usually end up buying things that I don't need or that I never wear. The reason for me not wearing them is due to the fact the nobody notices me so why should I wear my nice clothes. They are not going to impress anybody anyway.

When I go to school I usually wear leggings, or yoga pants with an oversized hoodie or sweater. My long wavy hair goes into a messy bun or sometimes a ponytail. My tan skin is always clear so I never put and foundation or concealer on it. But I do put mascara on because if I didn't it would look like I had no eyelashes.

My alarm went off at 6am. I got up out of bed and walked to my bathroom to take a quick shower. When I got out I wrapped myself in a towel, threw my hair in a pony tail, washed my face, and put on my mascara. I walked out of the bathroom and the cold air hit me. I ran to my closet got out a bra, tank top, and a north face hoodie. I placed those clothes on my bed and went to my dresser. I got out a pair of undies, leggings, and a pair of no show socks. I put my clothes on and walked down the hallway to the shoe closet. I grabbed a pair of black moccasins quickly put them on and walked downstairs to the kitchen. I grabbed a bowl, vanilla almond milk, and my favorite cereal which is Special K chocolatey delight. I took my bowl and sat at the breakfast bar. While I was eating I took out my phone and started to watch Netflix. I was on season 5 of Lost. The show was so good. When I finished my breakfast I ran back upstairs to brush my teeth and grab my car keys and backpack .

When I arrived at school, I walked through the halls and got my stuff for first period which was Biology. I sat in my usual spot which was in the back corner. My teacher Mr. Phillip began talking as soon as the clock hit 7:30. He kept talking on and on an on about cells. It was a very boring topic but I got through it while I'm pretty sure half the class had fallen asleep. 15 minutes before class ended Mr. Phillip announced how there is going to be a huge project due in 6 weeks and that it involves a partner and he is going to pick them for us. He read off a list that he had and I waited to hear my name and who I was going to be partnered with. "Keelynn Owens with Liam Hazel", I heard him say. Liam Hazel was the quarterback of the football team. The most popular guy In school. And I got stuck with him someone I never once talked to before in my life. Someone who didn't even know who I was. All I kept thinking in my mind was that this is going to be a long 6 weeks.
