"I am not scared of most things, I am not feared by most things, but love has always haunted me. I don't really know what love is, why people obsess over finding it and why we feel like the world is ending when we lose it." That's my quote everyone in Mrs.Garcia's classes has to have one. Mrs.Garcia is my literature teacher in her class she makes us read a lot of Shakespeare.

My name is Rowan Miller, I am a sixteen year old girl who has to deal with high school and the drama that comes with it. I only have two friends, their names are Padilla and Chico and they are my dogs. I am the new girl at school I've been here only one week and I already hate this hell hole.

I've found out that he only way for me to "fit in" was to do something daring like sleep with someone's boyfriend. I've been told I was daring but definitely not slutty. I am on my way to see my first football game with my mom, dad and cousin Jack, he is so obnoxious, most friends I have had he's dated them, broke their heart and made me the bad guy.

Enough about him our school is winning 15 to 17 we have gone all year undefeated thanks to the quarterback Daniel Thomas. All the girls at my school say he is to die for but I've only seen his face once when I was getting coffee this morning and I guess he looked okay. I mean he looked depressed and unhappy like he just found out his dad died. The game ended we won 19 to 23, I can't get seeing Daniel at the coffee shop so depressed out of my mind. What was wrong with him? Why was he so depressed? I couldn't stop thinking about him, our most prized football player down in the dumps.

Anyway, today is a new week and we have an important rally during period seven, I woke up twenty minutes early to have energy so, I had time to go to the Coffee Shop, as I walked through the door Daniel seated to my table. As he gave me the menu I said "Nice game Friday" I meant it as a compliment not as a diss, "Yeah, and you have a nice face" he said with attitude. "Oh my god what the hell! It's not my fault your life is so bad try to cheer people up not bring them down" I said with a crooked smile. As he walked away I raised my voice and said "Can I have a medium coffee and a chocolate muffin?"

When he brought me my coffee he sat down and apologize "Look I'm sorry for the way I acted and how immature I was. I guess I am just too busy with sports, school and granting everybody's wish and staying undefeated you know. It's just hard when people expect so much from me when I can only do so little umm is that's all you want?" I nodded my head yes. "Okay here's the check I have to go you should go too if you want to make it to school on time."

On my way to school all I could think of was my conversation with Daniel and how he had said 'everyone expects so much when he can only do so little' As I was walking towards Mrs.Garcia's class who I have 1st period I saw someone being shoved into a locker I was going to say something and then I realized the drama class was doing a play about bullying. I think it's a little too late for that three weeks ago a girl named Selena was being accused of running this Instagram page all about our school and the people. Just last week Brittany Weatherly admitted to being the Instagram bully. Since she is head cheerleader and Daniel's girlfriend she got not hate, but Selena is still being bullied. "Okay class get your books out we are reading Shakespeare again" Mrs. Garcia said as she walked in the class. Selena sits next to me, she is the only person that really talks to me here at school. Probably because I have all my classes with her, I also have all my core classes with Brittany.

"Come, let's away; the strangers all are gone" Thats whats how far i had gotten into the book before the bell rang. Our periods are short yet and we have seven. My whole life i have always been in a online academy type school and i'm used to going at my own pace so the past couple days have been long and boring. I have Mrs. Goode second period she is my calculus teacher. I love math and I'm really good at it so my parents are trying to force me to be a engineer but I don't know what I want to be. Since today is Monday we have test, which I think is stupid because it's Monday. Mrs. Goode says she want to see if any of her students actually study, most of the time it's no but they all seem to pass the class some how. I always study because I need to get A's I am very OCD when it comes to my grades.

Last question. Differentiate the following y=2/x+1 ugh oh wait I know this. -2/(x+1)(x+1) yeah that's it. When I was done with my test I turned it in to the front. When I was walking to my seat I noticed that Brittany was looking at Selena's answers. I'm not surprised on Friday we had a history test and she had snuck into the class earlier that day, took one of the test and wrote all of the answers on her arm. You are probably wondering how I know and why I didn't say anything to the teacher. I know because she is popular and everything she does is talked about. I don't say anything because it's her life and I must let her be even if that means letting her cheat.
