It was Friday, last day of school until the weekend and the concert mom said she's take me with. I changed my hair color again!! I like this one best out of all three times I dyed it.

Isn't it fabulous? I personally love it. I think blue might be my favorite color. The only colors in the orphanage were brown and black. Ugh, I hated it there! I put in my earbuds and started to play Pacify Her on my phone. So, turns out Melanie picked the worst month to send me to school. All anyone talked about (Especially June, who is now my friend) is the upcoming 'Valentine Dance'. We didn't celebrate holidays at the orphanage. The only romance there was when Sister Ellen invited her boyfriend over and they were making out until the mean and cruel leader of the nuns found them in one of the unused bedrooms(JUST KISSING PEOPLE!!!). She said romance is forbidden at Blackwood Orphanage. That Miles guy keeps trying to 'ask me something', which means he either wants to use a cheesy pickup line on me or he wants to ask me to the dance, which I am DEFINITELY not going to. I hate romance. It's weird and gross to me. Except this one hot guy named Damien who is in my art class. I want him to ask me out SO BAD!! Today we have 'Music Class', which we have every Friday apparently. We are doing a winter concert so we have to audition... everyone does... I CAN'T SING! I tried to explain to my teacher, but she simply said to "Express your inner voice!" Which makes no sense to me. Eventually it came to my turn and I told her I was singing Crybaby. When I ended the song and everyone said I was great but I knew it was pretty bad especially compared to Melanie. My next class is pottery, which is just art because pottery is simply what we are doing today I don't have a pottery class. I walked into the room, gasped and walked right back out. No way. How was she here?! I peeked through the doorway but this time she saw me. "Well, we'll we'll if it isn't little miss I got adopted." Sissy walked menacingly towards me. "SISSY?! Why are you here?!" I whispered. "I'm fed up with you. You called me to rub it in my face that some dumb lady with no taste in children chose you over me!!" She yelled. "Calm down, child! No tell me where you came from!" Miss Opaline tried to pull he raging girl away from me. It was obvious Sissy didn't go to this school, or at least she wasn't supposed to be. Soon it was made obvious because a few seconds later, the leader of the nuns, Sister Taylor burst through the art room doors. "SISSY! YOU BRAT!!" She screeched. Sissy quieted immediately and almost looked scared. "YOU ARE COMING BACK TO TE ORPHANAGE RIGHT HOW! OPPS, I MEANT YOU ARE GOING TO THE MENTAL ASYLUM YOU CRAZY CHILD!!!!" She dragged Sissy away by the hair. I actually almost felt BAD for Sissy. Sister Taylor hates her in particular out of all the children and if she said Sissy is going to an asylum, well, she probably is.
