Chapter 1: My life is so hard! I'm not just saying that because I'm a teenager but because it really is. Sure there are books guiding you through life but none of these books have lived yesterday, the worst day of all time, no one can prepare you for what happened.Nothing.

It all started that morning obviously that's when days usually start right? Well anyways I woke up complained that I have nothing to wear which mother replied by saying " you have 4 wardrobes in your room fit to burst and yet you have nothing to wear?" My mom has this thing where she's always right. She won't say anything is she's not a hundred percent certain it's true. It's frustrating but you learn to live with it. The school day started off badly mainly because I totally failed a history test and also because my I stepped in this stupid huge puddle and ruined my new pumps which weren't all that cheap. My family I guess you could say is kinda rich but I don't tell any one that because I've seen what happens to rich kids in the movies. That doesn't look like fun. I may seem really selfish for saying this but the worst part of the day was being told that I have to show this new transfer student around for a week. She's from Italy. We go to Italy every summer. We have been ever since I was 2 so I'm kinda a fluent Italian speaker but this new girl doesn't have a word of English so I have to translate everything she says and it's going to take her a while to learn English I mean come on.

Chapter 2: oh my god. The Italian girl, Florence, ironic huh? She is so mean. Well it's a good thing she doesn't speak English because my friends would have hated her. When i introduced to my friends she was so rude. One if my friends Lucy she's a bit big but not fat. Florence,in Italian, greeted her by saying "wow you're quite fat. Where did you get your hideous top? Elephant-R-us?" What was u supposed to say? I could repeat what she said so I just stuttered "uh... She said hi...this was also followed by my high pitched nervous laughter which didn't make me sound nervous at all. It only got worse from there.
