Monday
8:00 am
     I slept at around ten last night. I finished some of my English homework and I'll do the rest today. Then I read for a bit until I was on the verge of passing out. I was going to brush my teeth but my parents are coming upstairs earlier so that sucks.

     I woke up at 7:00 am, like the little shit I am, and ended up making an omelet at 7:30 am. I have to leave at 7:45 so I was rushing and ended up leaving a few minutes late but it's ok, I made it.

     It's freezing out here. Why can't they just let us go inside? Stupid rules, stupid school. Some teacher looked at me and said something. I shrunk in my skin and assumed she was talking to someone behind me, but then she pointed at me and asked me to open the door. I tried to open it but it was locked so she asked someone through the window. Lucky teacher.

I walk inside the school with my friend. Her other friend is absent I suppose. We go to my locker and she puts her stuff in and I do mine. I give her the combination.

Period 1&2
History. I walk in a drink a shit ton of water. I'm thirsty for some reason. We take a survey that's apparently for my English teacher? It's about the state's culture and shit. Whatever. We go over our constitution packets.

I raise my hand whenever he asks a question. Nobody else volunteers to answer so I just speed up the process.

Period 3
Health. We read an article on the dangers of smoking. It makes me feel quite sad because I have an uncle who smokes. My dad tries to get him to quit but it's not really working. It takes years off your life apparently.

Period 4
Science. We are presenting projects today. I signed up for tomorrow. You can present if you want extra credit. I have enough tickets to get hot chocolate whoop. I get a shit ton of marshmallows and whipped cream. I'm not going to live past 20 at this rate.

People presented and it was pretty boring ngl. I have some changes I want to make to my presentation so I'm going to do that tonight.

Lunch
Luckily, the library is open. They found a sub (how hard is it to find a librarian sub tho?) I walk in and my friend is there. I almost forgot I'm not totally alone anymore.

We sit down and I pull out a salad. She doesn't eat again even though she brought a lunch box. It worries me. She tells me about how she likes to work out on the weekends, treadmill, weights, walking, etc. Man, I should really be more fit.

Then she says something I would never expect. She said we should "really hang out again sometime" and "it was fun". I swear, I must be dreaming. I agree enthusiastically and suggest maybe we see a movie or something. We then go on to talk about horror movies and Cats which leads to a furry discussion. Don't judge me. Her friend arrives carrying a small plant with flowers. None of them eat anything so all I eat is a salad and a small orange. I don't want to look fat and eat chips. I'm so fat.

Period 5
We have a sub today. Our assignments are on the board. A girl who I usually partner with calls me over (the one who supposedly got me sick lmao). I go to sit down and the sub hands me a tiny slip of paper with the attendance and asks me to take it to the office. Why me?

I walk out and head to the office. I had the lady the slip and come back. I notice that my partner had dragged her desk and my desk together with two other people. The people are nice, I know them. As soon as I sit down the guy I usually sit next to calls my name. He asks me what I got for the first problem because he's confused about the graph. I say I just got here so obviously I don't have anything. He says to hurry it up then.

Period 6
     Guitar. Nothing interesting happens. She assigns us a song with only chords.

Period 7
     English. I heard rumor the teacher isn't here today. Lo and behold, a teacher in a wheelchair comes in. I actually like this teacher, he's funny. He says our teacher's back hurts and had to take the day off. He says to work on our project.

     I pull out my figurative language assignment. I'm drawing "I stumble from thorn bush to thorn bush—my mother and father who hate each other, Rachel who hates me, a school who gags on me like a hairball. And Heather." I wrap thick vines around her feet and put sharp thorns on them. I think it looks pretty good, I can almost feel the pain of the prick of a thorn.

3:05
     I get on the bus. The bus drives says I should play something on my guitar. I say I probably don't have enough time. He says maybe the last day of school. I agree.

     I decide not to go on my phone today. I stare out the window and listen to the radio the bus driver plays. The sky looks nice today. Blue sky, fluffy clouds. The mountains still have a dusting of snow on top. I always admire the skies here, ever since we moved. It's a nice change from boring skies.

     I walk up our street watching my feet. I'm actually in an ok mood today. I walk inside to find no smells. Nobody is cooking today. I walk inside and say hello to my mother. I make a turkey-butter-baguette sandwich with strawberries and pretzels. It feels too unhealthy so I throw some blueberries on the side as well.

    As I'm eating my mom informs me I have a dentist's appointment. Why didn't she tell me this earlier? Probably because she knows I'll try and get out of it. I groan and chew on the thick baguette. I only have 20 minutes. She says I need to brush my teeth before I go. I take my time eating the sandwich, watching the birds outside.

     Eventually, I'm rushing to brush my teeth because I took too long to eat. Finally, we are on our way to the dentist. We walk in and my sister drags me to the little room with a movie playing. I scroll through my phone. The dentist person calls my name and I walk out. Well apparently it's not me, just someone with the same name as me. What a coincidence.

     We wait. 40 minutes pass and my mom starts to suspect something. People come in and get called before us. She goes to ask them and what a surprise they forgot about us. Finally, they take us to the back. Apparently, I'm getting a sealant?

    The dentist tells me to sit on the chair blah blah blah. They're playing Frozen on the TV lmao. She puts this thing on my mouth that keeps it open. Doctors and dentists always make me nervous.

     She takes her scrape thingy, stabs me in the gums a few times, and jabs her sucky thingy into the back of my throat pretty roughly. Ouch. She slathers my teeth with this gel stuff. I feel saliva slide down my throat and desperately try to swallow.

     Eventually, she goes to the other side of my mouth. Suddenly, her finger is jabbing the back of my throat. I feel myself about to gag and try to make some sort of choking sound. She tells me to relax or she'll have to do everything over again. I feel my eyes water slightly and I literally felt as if I would die. Finally, the torture ended and she called over a doctor. The doctor complimented the person's work.

     I go to see my sister. Of course, she had a nice experience. Then some people walk in and start saying some apology about us waiting and a thank-you for our patience. Then they give us two Sonic gift-cards. Wow, I'll accept that apology.

      We go home and I sit on the couch and do nothing. We eventually eat steak for dinner. I watch some funny videos before my parents make me get off my phone. Until tomorrow. Stay safe. Ciao.
