The Pastor's Son

This Sucks

In some parts of the world, students are going to school every day. It's their normal life. But in other parts of the world, we are starving for education...it's like a precious gift. It's like a diamond. – Malala Yousafzai

"BEEP BEEP BEEP" went my alarm as I smacked it 5 times. My black hair was all over the place as I struggled to get out of bed. "Sweetie would you come down stairs?" my mom yelled from downstairs . "Nope" I yelled back, "let me fix that sentence" she said. "sweetie GET down stairs she yelled back" I got up as I heard her yell.

Why does school have to be in the morning I'm pretty sure if students took a vote we would all rather want to start it in the afternoon. Teachers hate us I know it. My mom tossed waffles and had bacon sizzling on the stove. "Are u ready for your first day of  11th grade?" She asked me. "I haven't really got a chance to get ready yet". "I'm sorry honey I'll let get ON FEEK" she said. "Ewww"I say back to her
" Isn't that what you kids say nowadays?"  She asked me. "not really that's just dead" I say back. Ohh is that  another slang "just dead"she asks.  "please stop" I say as I leave the kitchen and head back upstairs. I pick out a red and black flannel and pair that with my black leggings, with my red vans and I throw my hair into a high ponytail.
I run to the bathroom as I try and beat the time since I only have 10 minutes left.

I run down stairs grab 2 pieces of bacon with a waffle and head out the door. "Wait sweetie"my mom says. She runs outside and hops in the car. " I'm driving you to school" she says as she turns the radio up. " NO" I say as I stand there with my book bag on the ground. "Yes honey it's a mother's privilege to drive their daughter to school ESPECIALLY on their first day!" I didn't feel like arguing so I just hopped into the passengers side with a frown on my face. She cranks the music up louder and drives quickly while  dancing to old people music.

We arrive at the high school & it looked nice. I'm definitely not gonna give it high expectations because it is highschool after all. "Bye mom "I say as I hop out the car. "By sweetie love u" she says as she kisses me on my left cheek. "Love you too " I say as I check my surroundings to see if anyone her the mushy cringe worthy mother -daughter talk.

I go straight to my first period class which is math. I groan as I read the schedule. Why do I have to have math first? Now let me brace myself for the most annoying part of the day walking into my first class. I just bust the door open and walk right in. I scan the room for an empty seat then I see one in the back.

"Bro do u think u could tap that?"

" look at her she's thick"

"Bro she's mine"

" dang the new girls a future baddie"

I heard all of those things in the 30 seconds it took me to get to my desk which felt like hours. I sit next to this girl wearing all pink with platinum blonde hair. As I sit down I hear the teacher call my name "Camryn Miller would you like to introduce yourself ?" "Nope" I shout back with a smirk on my face. " Well then, you can have a seat. The students eyes were fixated on me and I could here the students mumbling.
The blonde who sits beside me is named Rachel so BASIC.

The bell rings and I gather my things and head to ELA. In that class I was forced to introduce myself. Ms. Reed was very strict and I didn't plan on getting into a heated argument on the first day. I said the simple things like where I lived before,favorite color,and my name. I sat down and we watched some stupid documentary while the teacher played some loud game on her phone.

I ended up falling asleep until the class period was over. I didn't make any friends because at the end of the day I don't like people in general we just don't get along. Eventually, after being in the hell hole for 7 hours straight I was released with my perky mother bopping her head and dancing to old people music once again.

"Come on sweetie we're going to church"

I just froze " when do we EVER go to church mom?" I asked. "It starts today honey we're gonna be HOLY HOLYYYY" she says. I hop into the car with disappointment written all over my face.
