Dear Diary,
I should be paying attention in class but instead I'm writing in this thingie. Yeah I know, I'm 16 years old and I still have a diary but hey! This thing helps me get through my day without killing anyone (because trust I almost did kill someone...but it was on accident..okay,let's not get into that.)

"Ms.Michelle are you even listening?" My science teacher, Ms.Brown ask.

I put my diary down. "Uh, of course I am."

She pursed her lips. "What did I just say?"

"...You said Ms.Michelle are you even listening to me."

She fold her arms across her chest. "You got jokes I see."

"When have I ever not have jokes Mrs.Brown."

The class chuckle. But Mrs.Brown, her face was red uh oh.

"You can have all the jokes in detention after school."

"DETENTION!!! I can't go to detention I have plans after school." You see this is how you lie to your teachers 101 I have nowhere to go other than the most amazing place in the world. My bed.

"Hmm interesting." She says with a scowl on her face

I look at my best friend Mariah as I roll my eyes and put my head down.I never had the best relationship with my teachers, especially the guy teachers they always tried to test my intelligence.

The bell finally rang and I bolt out of my seat and just as I was about to step outside of the door I was stop in my tracks.

"Ms. Michelle can I speak to you for a second."

It was Mrs.Brown, I know where this is going.

"Ye....ess" I said with slight hesitation.

She look at me with one eyebrow raise with a semi smirk as she tilt her head to the side.

"Now Missy what did I tell you about writing in that journal of yours"

I look at her with a nervous smile

"Sorry but you know my attention span only lasts for so long, and let's be real the lessons aren't really attention grabbing."

She look at me with a serious yet offended face with her head tilted to the side.

"Sorry but you know I'm right."

She said with a sigh. "See you in detention Missy." She walk me to the door.

I turn around in despair. "Wait no pleaseee no" right before she closed the door in my face and said "Bye Missy." And walked off.

I turn to my best friend Mariah who had been waiting for me in the hall and let out a stressful sigh as we walk to fourth period.

Mariah sent me a smile. "I see you got in trouble once again."

I huff. "It's not my fault that these classes are boring, even if I tried to pay attention I probably would end up falling asleep!"

She shook her head. "Well you can at least try, this is like...what your 7th detention for this year."

I roll my eyes. "I'm sorry I'm not such a goodie goodie like you." Mariah is a straight A student, she makes sure she get her work in on time and all the teachers and may I add all the students love her. We are total opposites she is very optimistic and always try to stay positive even in bad situations. While I, slack in class, don't get along with a lot of people and I just don't like people period.

She scoff. "I am not a goodie goodie."

"Name something bad you did."

She hesitated. "Well I... I... sneak out of the house while I was grounded."

I snorted. "Riah you sneak out the house to go to the library."

"So..."

"So, nothing but it's okay I still love you just the way you are." I tease.

"Yeah whatever."

The awesome thing is Mariah and I have two periods together back to back then we have to go our separate ways and I'll see her after school she is the one and few people I can actually tolerate.

When we walk in and I saw Shawn. He had the kind of face to make you stop in your tracks. I guess he must get that a lot, when he look my way, followed by a nonchalant gaze and weak smile. Of course, the blush that accompanied it was a dead give away. It didn't help he was so modest with it, it made girls fall for him. His eyes was mesmerizing deep brown....Too much? Yeah I need a life. A little short background story about it, Shawn and I knew each other since the 2nd grade before I even knew Mariah or any of my other best friends... Me and him was the partners in the crime, two peas in a pod but we slowly drift apart and soon we just became two strangers in a hallway. He had the hugest crush on me in the past I knew but I never acknowledged it. He soon became so popular that he push me to the side and start dating other girls.

Anyway I just went to my seat, as I walk away his smile fade. The P.A came on  "Hello Hello Hello to all the students at Rydell There will be a Valentines Day dance on February 14th, All 6th period teachers will pass out the information forms."

I looked at Mariah as I let out an awful groan.

She shrug, and mouth out. "Don't worry you will be fine."

I didn't know this was the beginning of the worst school semester ever.
