I glare at the blinding light of my digital clock. Realising I have ten minutes until I need to be out the door. Into a new world, so called secondary education in other words high school.
I go to my dresser and look at myself in the mirror thinking about the truth, I haven't made the effort, first day back I need to look good, what could I do in ten minutes I need to have breakfast. But I want to look good. I try a basic pony tail. Paint my face with make up only to realise i look just as bad but with more of an orange hint and wipe it off again.
In the ten minutes I didn't use my time very effectively. I glared in the mirror, trying to edit my said to be oddly shaped face like they do on Instagram.
I was always told I'm ugly and then beaten up to look uglier that's why this time I want to give a first impression that I'm beautiful and not just on the inside.
I failed at getting ready tried out different looks like always and gave up. I had to leave without breakfast as I spent so much time trying to get ready trying to make my self feel more confident with my appearance.
I set off, leave home. My mind is full of anxiety. I can't stop thinking of what people will think of me. Will people at high school like me?
Step by step I make it closer to the bus stop where I shall catch the bus. I see blurred unrecognised faces in the distance.
I get closer only to see them staring at me in disgust. I bow my head down trying to not be judged any longer.
There are three girls. one has dark hair tied back as the other two have blonde long hair, one worn tied the other down.
I hear them laughing as I get closer. They stop as I approach.
"Hi my name is Kate, nice to meet you"
"You think we're really going to be friends with you?!?"
Growls the girl with the blonde hair worn down.At this moment they had all turned away and stoped staring at me as if I was some monster.
I look down and think. High school is going to be just 'great'...
