Dear diary, today is a new day. New school, new people, old home. It's been a while since I've been back in Kansa, last time we were here I was five and dad had just joined the military. But its senior year and he promised not to drag me around when I go to college.

I closed my diary and slumped back on my bed. Please be a good school please, I thought to myself. *Knock knock* "sweetie come wave your dad off to work now." My mom said, she was always so cheery but I know she was hurting inside.
"Just a minute mom!" I shouted back as sweetly as I could. I threw my ginger hair up into a messy bun and slid down the railing.
"Flame darling what have I told you about the railing?" My dad said with a sturn tone.
"Not to do it, we have stairs for a reason" I said rolling my eyes. I gave my dad a kiss on the cheek and waved him off as he went back to work. "Do I have to go to this janky school mom? Why can't I just do it online?"
"for the last time Flame, I will not alow you to drop out of school. You have one year left and then you can leave for collage or get a job." Ugh same old same old.

I rushed upstairs to find an outfit that was comphy yet cute, I wanted to make a good first impression after all.

(see picture above)I decided to go with something light an breezy as we had just come out of summer and it was still hot

I decided to go with something light an breezy as we had just come out of summer and it was still hot.
I grabbed my phone to check the time 7:20am great just great. School starts at 8 and I haven't done my makeup yet.

~~~~20 minutes later~~~~

It was a miracle that I finished makeup in 20 minutes. "Sweetie hurry up or you'll not get to the deans office in time."
"okay okay let me grab my bag and keys!" I shouted down to my mom. I grabbed my black Nike backpack and shoved in my keys, phone, wallet and makeup bag. I raced down the stairs grabbed my car keys and headed for the door, then my mom stopped me.
"Flame, I'll be home late, there's pizza in the freezer. Have a good day, love you." She smiled at me.
"No worries, love you too." And with that I raced out of the house, jumped into my car and headed towards the high-school.
