______________________________________________________________________________________

Let me introduce myself. My name is Rhiannon but my family calls me Rhi. I am 17 years old and my life isn't exactly what you'd call picture perfect. I have frizzy brown hair, big glasses and zits all over my face. I don't have any friends apart from my dog and I spend most of my time in the library and when you look like me you don't do to well socially. This was a basic day at highschool before everything changed.

I looked at the clock on the wall. Only half an hour left until lunch. I could hear my maths teacher talking distantly in the background about this week's homework. I felt something light crash on my head. I looked at the floor and saw a scrunched up piece of paper. I turned around to see two of the stupid meat-headed jocks snickering behind their hands. One of them pointed to the paper on the floor and mouthed "open it". I opened the paper and briefly looked at the very poorly drawn picture of a girl with huge glasses, frizzy hair, buck teeth, zits everywhere and my name written underneath it. I scrunched it up and threw it back on the floor. I tried to concentrate for the rest of the lesson but i kept drifting off. At least i was trying to concentrate. Finally the bell rang and everyone rushed out of the classroom knocking me over and making me drop all my books. I bent down slowly and started picking up my stuff holding back tears. I was the only one left in the classroom then and just before i walked out Mr Lee (my favourite teacher) grabbed my hand. I turned around with tears in my eyes.

"Are you ok Rhiannon?" He asked

"I'm awesome, I'm awesome." I said trying to sound convincing

"You know that if you ever need to talk I'm here." he said comfortingly

"I know, thanks Mr Lee."

"Any time." He said smiling

I walked out of the classroom into the crowded hallway. I walked past all the popular girls bragging about the super hot dates they had on the weekends. I also walked past the emos, the jocks flirting with the cheerleaders, the chess club, the motor heads and the computer nerds. I made my way to my locker and dumped my books and grabbed my lunch bag

I pushed my way through the crowd and stumbled into the even more crowded cafeteria. It smelled like the mouldy lunch food and teenagers.

I took my usual seat alone at the table in the corner and pulled my lunch out of the paper bag. Lunched passed slowly as usual and I maintained my place alone at my table. The bell rang and I made my way to my last lesson. Gym. It was by far my least favourite time of the day.

I changed into my gym clothes and headed to the gym. Coach Kessler walked through the gym door with his usual coffee in hand. He blew his whistle and everyone formed a line.

"Alright ladies today we're gonna play doge-ball. Now choose your teams! Rachel and Adam you're the captains." Adam and Rachel chose their teams and not surprisingly I was the last person to be chosen for a team. Rachel sighed

"We'll take Rhiannon then"

A simultaneous groan erupted throughout the rest of the team but I ignored it. Gym passed quickly but not without lots of bruises and headaches.

I walked to my locker and grabbed my bag and walked home.

When I got home I walked into the kitchen and grabbed a snack. There was a note on the table from my mum and dad. I picked it up and read it.

"Dear Rhi,

Your father and I have been called to an emergency meeting in New York and won't be back for a week tops. We put a couple hundred dollars in your back account. Don"t waste it! I told Mrs Heller next door that we were going to be away and she said that if you needed anything just go over.

Love you honey

Mum and Dad xx"

I chucked the note back down on the table and made my way up to my room to do my homework.

It was ten o'clock when I finished my homework and I was pretty tired so I went and had a shower, cleaned my teeth and jumped into my cozy bed.

"BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP!" Screeched my alarm clock it was six thrirty am. I groaned and got out of bed. I truged downstairs in search of breakfast. My stomache rumbled, I realised how hungry I was seeing as I didn't eat dinner last night. I had my usual musli and went and got dressed for school.

The day passed as a blur and before I knew it the day was already over.
