Chapter 1
May 10, 2013
Finally only twenty three more days till this school year comes to an end. Being a junior in high school wasn’t the worst but the seniors are so annoying and cocky, I’m glad their leaving this year. Imagine how the juniors of next year will feel about us (my senior class). Well, the only thing left to do this year is our finals, which suck! I hate testing not the best under pressure especially when timed.
I kind of can’t wait to become a senior, get to go to prom, even though I might not even go because of the price, but it’s a nice idea of finally finishing high school and going into the real world as the adults say.
“ Miss Nora will you like to answer the question?” Back to reality, I totally forgot I was in my Algebra 2 class. I always day dream.. Always.
“It’s Karmen not Nora.” I looked up to see my classmate’s full attention on me and the teacher. He should know what I liked to be called by; I mean it’s the end of the school year already.
“Well, Miss Nora would you like to answer the problem on the board?”
“No thanks”. I gave the teacher a short lasting smile, I really don’t like him especially because he never bumps my 89.87 to a minus A.
The last period of the day, and it goes do damn slow. I can’t wait to go home and log on to my tumblr and maybe even order some pizza.
“Alright work on the problems written on the board when done set them in my desk and I will correct them, the ones that you get right will count as extra credit”. The professor explained writing the number eight through seventeen on the board. I did need extra credit, so opened the book immediately. After a couple of minutes the bell rang, closing my book and grabbing my bag taking the worksheet to the teacher’s desk.
“You know Miss Nora”.
“Karmen”. I interrupted him.
“That you also get points for participation and you do none of that .That’s why you have a high B and not a low A”.
“What are you trying to tell me?”
“That you should participate on answering bell work, you might get an A for the final grade”.
“Alright , I’ll try to participate more”. Really I didn’t like to talk in front of the whole class, but I do need an A. After getting out of the classroom I went to the group’s regular spot next to the front hallway to catch up a little.
“Hey Karm.” My best friend Callistro said, she had her blonde/black hair to the side like always. And outfit (http://www.polyvore.com/shool/set?id=89021938#fans) regular grey sweater with some reddish pants.
“Hey Call , can you give me a ride today? I forgot my dad had a job meeting today.”
“Yeah, anything for you bestie”. We said our goodbyes to the group as we entered the student parking lot. We found a white Corolla which was Call’s mom’s car.
“So is your dad getting a new job or what?” Call unlocked the doors .
“Well, he said an opportunity came up and he needed to talk it out and be informed about it”. We got inside the car as she turned it on and made our way through the gates having to stop here and there because of students passing and getting into cars.
“Hopefully he takes it , must be fun living the photographer life”.
“Yeah, but it can also be for body guarding someone”.
“True”.
