"MEEENNNNAAAA.." She hears her named being yelled from across the house. Her eyes slightly opens, she
peers at the clock seeing the time '6:16 am' . She closes her eyes once more, opening them every few minutes to
make sure she was wide awake when 6:30 hit.. When it finally did, she got up Slowly making her way to the
bathroom to begin her daily routine; stare at herself in the mirror for about 2 1/2 minutes then go back into her
room, looking for a uniform to wear.. The usual Black or white shirt with Khaki or Black pants (which she wore
Jeans instead) ..Today she picked a white shirt with Black jeans, laying it on her bed.. She then walked into the
bathroom to take her shower.. Once she got out she dried off then made her way into the bedroom to put on her
Clothes, She added some black combat boots and a Black and white scarf, just to spice things up. She heard her
mother also getting ready in her room, she walked into the hallway and met eyes with Mena. They both were not

Made there way to the car. Mena got in throwing her bag onto the floor of the car as her mother started it. "Wow,
it got dark out here quick" she said, Mena just shook her head, a yawn let out as the car pulled off..

Feel the need to converse with them unless she had to.. Begin around the Fine arts student, really opened her up
She was a totally different person when around them. It was like being in a whole different school. When her
Mother pulled up to the front of the gym, where all "early arriving " students had to enter through, she Kissed her
Mothers cheek, adding a "Bye Mommy.." And getting out of the car.. She was truly a mommy AND a daddy's girl.
She trailed her way up to the gym entrance into the gym corridors, towards the cafeteria.. She sat at the table

'I'm here Ma'am' ..she replied 'Me too, I'm in the cafeteria ..is Tyler there yet? ' she giggled as she sent the
message . Tyler was Mena's close Guy friend, who she ABSOLUTELY enjoyed hanging out with. Only problem
