Chapter 7: Getting ready, on a Friday?!
Friday, April 12 2013, 8:00 a.m.
I have been awake for an hour now and I'm nowhere near ready, I've had my breakfast and brushed my teeth, but that's about it. I need to get my skirt and shirt out of my wardrobe. I open my wardrobe and pull out a black mini skirt and a white silk, three quarter shirt.
Next I go to my underwear draw and pull out my black bra and black panties and put them on. Then I put on my shirt and button it up, leaving the top button undone and slide on my mini skirt, tucking my shirt into it, and place a silver belt through the loops in my skirt.
"Now for my make-up." I say to myself as I pull out my stool from under my make-up desk. I sit on it and apply my make-up. First it's my foundation. Then I apply my bronzer on my neck, making sure it's the same colour as my face.
After that I apply my blusher, next my pencil eyeliner on the inside of my eyes, then my black eye shadow and black liquid eyeliner over the top of my eyes, now my mascara and finally my scarlet red lipstick.
"Now for my hair." I say and quickly turn on my curlers, I section off my hair, my side fringe, and two pieces of hair from the side of my head, I pull them out and tie everything else into a messy bun, "that will do just for now." I sigh.
The curlers beep and I curl the two pieces of hair. Then I plug in the straighteners and wait for them to beep, once they beeped I straightened my fringe. After I've done that I get to work on my bun.
"I'm just doing my hair mum, be down in five!"
"Okay, sweetheart, try to hurry a little though, we have to leave in ten minutes." My mum calls back up to me. I quickly finish putting the last hair grip in and my bun is finished,
"Now for the final piece." I say to myself, as I place a black jewelled clip into the back of my bun, and place my black jewelled earrings in to match it.
"I don't see why we have to start school on a Friday. Why Friday, it's the last day of the week, there is no point starting school then... is there?" I say to myself.
I grab the rest of my school books from my bed and load them into my new satchel ebony coloured school bag. I go downstairs and see my mum holding my tie.
"Are you forgetting something?" She laughs.
I feel my neck to make sure it's my black tie. "My tie, thanks mum." I smile at her. I get it the tie, put it on, and walk out the house with my brother while our mum is behind us.

"Can I get in the front today?" I hear Angel ask our mum.
"You have to ask your sister Angel... It's her first day of school; she might want to get in the front." She laughs
"Oh okay... Scarlet..." Angel says as he turned to me
"It's ok Angel I'll get in the back." I sigh and open the back door. Angel looks at me and pulls a sad face.
"Oh okay Scarlet, you get in the front." Angel looks at me and smiles; I smile back and hug him. "Thanks Angel."
"Anything for my lil sis." He teases. I laugh. Our mum gets into the car and drives us to school. Once there I look around and see that almost everyone is wearing the same thing, but it's different to mine.
