I woke up to the shrill ringing of my alarm clock and rubbing the sleep out my eyes I stumbled out of bed. Today I was starting a new School Helmwoods High and I sigh as I brushed my teeth for I wasn't really looking forward to the day that lay ahead. After doing my bathroom routine I went into my closet to find something suitable to wear and knowing that it was my first day I had to make a good impression.After searching for half an hour i finally settled with the outfit below.
It was both cute and comfortable and also not too showy and I loved it.Once I was ready I went downstairs into the kitchen where my parents were along with my step sisters.They had on matching outfits and they looked excellent in my opinion .(see outfits below)
I sat down at the counter and my mom served me a plate of eggs and beacon with french toast. As I ate Clarice asked " is that what you are wearing to school ?" I nodded and she looked at her twin and said " word of advice Alexia nobody is wearing those pants again". I looked down at my outfit and said " I am not going to show anything I am going to learn so those who don't like it can go to hell". My mother looked at me and said "Alexia Miller I never thought you that word and it shouldn't be used at the table now finished up and I will drive you to school". Angrily I pushed away my plate and went outside to wait for my mother.
As she drove me to school she said "Alexia I love you and I want to do your best , but if you are not happy then it doesn't make sense I continue like this.you are my baby girl my only child and I want only the best for you". I held her hand in mine as she stopped at the entrance to the school and said" I know mom and it's fine .I am going to do my best or at least die trying , but I don't want you to worry about me just enjoy your life you deserve it". Smiling she kissed the top of my head and said "that's my baby girl now go out there and make me proud". With that I got out of the car and watched as she drove away and turning to the entrance of the megastic school building I sigh and said to myself "You got this Alexia".
