Dear Diary,
I totally flunked all my classes except gym! My parents are going to kill me! I'm so dead. It's just not fair that you get graded on math and stuff. If it was just gym, I'd be fine.

Chemistry was...fine. Not too bad, but sometimes I messed up. English is dumb. Like, what the heck is a 'moll'? I have been keeping it a secret that I failed from everyone I know, but I think some of them know. Trent keeps giving me that look he has when he's concerned for me. The other jocks don't give a damn, but I heard some of the girls whispering about who failed and my name came up.

I'm really worried. I mean, I'm not the best at grades but at least I've never completely failed before. What if I get expelled? That'd be a perfect way out. Maybe I'd just join that group of kids that hang around the nuclear plant. No, no, no! I won't get expelled! I can't! Not now!
