"May, you have to get up! First day back to school from the Chrismas break! What do you want for breakfast?!"
Her mom was full of questions and excitement. Back to school! Hooray! Wipdy-freakin-doo! Is what May thought of the whole thing. A sixteen day break for Christmas and New Year and the stupid school officials want them to go back? May thought it's a little ridiculous.
"Mom! I don't wanna! High school sucks! And bacon!"
"You have to go! It'll be ok! Bacon sounds good!"

After their bacon, May packed her things and went out the door. She walks to school everyday. She lives three blocks down from the school itself.
This morning was unfortunately, it's very snowy outside and the wind-chill is at negative twenty-three degrees. Bundled up, May met up with her friend Mat, and they walked to school.
"Cold out! Almost slipped back there!" Mat said.
"I know! Really cold!"
"So, how 'v 'ya been?"
"Good!" May tried to sound as pleasant as she could, but she was miserable today.
"Hey, do you know if we had any homework? 'Cause if we did, I didn't do any of it!"
"I didn't either. If they gave us homework over Christmas break that would just be rude!"
"Totally agree! Hey! Its seven thirty! We're gonna be late!" At Mat's words they both flew down the sidewalk.

At school, May found herself in Algebra, on the Chrome Books, taking a stupid online-test.
47: Mr. Finutzif is making has a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. The recipe calls for 1 and 7/8 cups of milk. Mr. Finutzif wants to triple the recipe. How many cups of milk does the new recipe call for?
Where in the hell do they come up with these names? May thought. She did the math and continued to take the test.

A little later, May met Mat in the cafeteria for lunch. "What did you think of that Algebra test?"
"It was ok."
"What's the matter with you?"
"Nothing," Mat sighed.
"Come on! I know you, Mat! What's the matter?"
"I got a freakin fifty-three precent on that test." Mat whispered.
"That's ok! Frig school. Do you wanna go get a coffee with me later?"
"Starbucks?!"
"Starbucks."
