I've been searching the internet for diets but none of them looked interesting. Until I came across the "ballerina diet". Apparently, it was super strict, you wouldn't really be eating anything, and it says it will help you lose ten kilograms! I decided that was the one I was going to do. And maybe sign up for ballet as well as tennis. I mean, who could it hurt?

I told my mom about the diet and she said she wants me to be careful and to make sure to drink enough water or else I might pass out. She did tell me she was okay with me doing ballet and tennis, but it might be difficult because ballet will take up a lot of time. But I think I can manage. "So, do you know when tennis tryouts are?" My mother asked. "Saturday next week I think. I'm really excited, and maybe it'll help me get some friends." I said sipping some water I had. "Did you not make any friends yesterday?" She asks giving me a worried expression. "Um... not really. People were a little mean but that's okay. I don't really care. Anyways, since you're off today, is it okay if I take the car to school?" I ask. She tosses me the keys and says goodbye as I get my school bag ready.

There was a traffic jam and I was told we wouldn't be able to move for hours, so I called my mom. "Hey mom, so apparently there's a huge pileup and we'll be stuck here for hours." "Is there any way you can get out? Maybe make a u-turn?" she asked. "I can try." I hung up and attempted to make a U-turn, it didn't go well but I made it. By the time I got to school, it was already the second period. So I rushed to get to class and got yelled at by the teacher. "Roxy! Why are you late?" "Oh um, there was a pileup on the way here so I had to go a different route that was longer. I'm so sorry." I said walking to my desk, bumping into another. "Sorry!" I said turning around and slumping in my desk. "Watch it fat ass!" "ENOUGH!" the teacher yelled. The girl who yelled it started giggling with her friends. "Both of you, see me after class."

After class, the girl and I stayed in our seats while the others left. "Now Megan, why would you say that to her?" The teacher asked the other girl. "Do you see her? She obviously eats too much and I don't want her touching my stuff with her fat!" She said whining. "Just because she's a tad overweight doesn't mean it's a good idea to call her names. If this happens again I will have to call your parents. Now, apologize.". Megan sighed and looked at me, rolled her eyes, and said sorry. "It's fine..." I say looking away. "Dismissed." The teacher said. I cannot remember her name, I'll have to look at my schedule for that.

After getting home my mom asked me when I was starting the diet, and I told her I would start it the next week because I know this week will be difficult with all the stuff going on at school. She said okay and then we ordered some Chinese food and went to bed.

Hey! So this is chapter two. My dad gave me his old laptop and it's bigger and faster than my little one that couldn't even connect to the internet. I've been wanting to update but my phone is too small for me to update, and my mom's computer has a separate keyboard which I find distracting. But now I'll be updating every weekend, hopefully. Or whenever I feel like it. I'm sorry I don't update that often, but I try. Byeeeee!
