As me and Milly arrived at my locker, 167, or as I nicknamed it, Smelly, as it smells horribly of dioderant. Rexona Woman Confidence to be exact. I open up my locker to reaveal my large collection of school books, locker food and the various origami objects that have been made by me and some other extremely talented friends. I shut my locker after taking out a packed of biscuits, one of the many tupes if licker foods that i kerp stashed away in there. "You made me belly dance with you all the way to your locker just so that you could get a packet kf those disgusting biscuits that you don't even like?" Said Minny, clearly shocked with the fact that I could eat as much as I wanted without getting fat. A gift, I know. "Firstly, I do so like rhem, and secondly, Yes. Yes i did belly dance with you just so that I could get some locker food from old Stinky," I replied to her with a smug smile on my face. "Would you like some?" Minny just gave me one of her death stares that she only gives to tall people because she can't reach up high enough to hurt them. It usually means stuff you or bitch please. Either way, it wasn't a look that she gave people when she was happy. To help cheer her up, I started 'victory dancing' or, as those immature people would call it, pelvic thrusting.

The bell went, scaring the crap out of not just us, but all our peers as well. It signalled the start of rollcall, the worst lesson of the day. I made my way down to rollcall, taking the quickest route so that i wouldn't be marked absent and given the death stare by the teacher when I finally arrived. The lining up outside of the door showed that we had a substitute. I let put the breath that i didn't realise I was holding in as the fantastic news sunk in. It meant that we could sit wherever we wanted. As long as it was on a seat and a table, of course. I almost jumped for joy when stinky Donny Kink, the annoying child that always reeked of linx, didn't sit next to me. Instead I get to sit next to Lila, the coolist gypsie kid around.

As I make my way to my next class, I realise, I don't have a next class! (Well maybe I do but so what?) I start to walk in the opposite direction only to run into the teacher! Why do I have to run into the teacher? Why? "Hello miss Extremely Long Legs," said Mr. Lumbley. "And where o you think you're going?" I just stand there shocked or a millasecond. "E-english sir," I stutter. "But I have you today don't I? I must have read the wrong day." Mr. Lumbley gives me an intense glare before walking back go the staff room. I start walking to commerce, the actual class that I have. Grrr.

As the bell goes for lunch, me, Josie and Lila run upstairs to our Lockers. I go to Stinky and take out some locker food. "Ew! Is that Confidence I smell?" Said Josie with a disgusted look on her face. I just wink back at her which send her into a laughing fit. Did I mention that my dazzling eyes, which are quite envious, send people into laughing fits? Just as we begin walking towards the stairs, I start to get that tingly feeling again. I start dancing wildly. Everybody in the hallway looks my way, giving me wierd looks. "It's dance time!" I yell out to them. They all give me a look which means they understand. Soon, the whole group of students start dancing wildly.

The rest of the day went by as a blur. Probably as I need glasses and I wasn't wearing mine. As I make my way out to the car, Brad, I almost trip on a crack. "Stupid cracks," I mutter to myself. I enter the car, prepraed for the deadly future that awaited me. "Hi Ell, darling!" said my mother cheerfully. "How was school today? Did anything interesting happen?" Oh no. The two questions that I was prepared for thrown at me at the same time. This sure is. predicament. I did not expect this. "It was good Mum, nothing interesting happened." There. I lied. That wasn't too hard, was it? As long as I don't start- I started to hiccup. I always hiccup when I lie. Unless of course it's to a teacher. Luckily Mum just shrugs. I let out the breath that I've been holding in. That was a close one.
