First day of school and I'm already tired. Great I have to get my schedule and get all those sh*t subjects. On my way to the principle office I see new people and all the people i already know trying to flirt with everyone. Ugh.

I cant believe the summer holidays were that short for me. We wanted to go to italy as always but we always end up being busy with studying and doing a lot of work. My family are the nicest people even though I didn't grew up with my dad I still love him too. He died when I was born in a shooting in italy. My family is now me, my brother isha and my mother magret. As much as I miss my father I cant change the past.

As long my thoughts go to my family I arrived at the principal's office. He handed me my schedule with a lot of subjects I'm actually okay with. I'm actually kind of intelligent but I never raise my hand. That's the only reason I'm getting a grade below then i should get. Let's see the first classes are gonna be arts and history. Arts is okay with me but history isnt really my subject.

As I slowly open the door to my arts class and see only one person sitting there. It's the quite guy Harry. You have to know I'm actually one of the popular people but we aren't the mean kind of people even though we have a mini clique which includes my 2 best friends and me. Well back to harry he doesn't really talk to me. I kinda have the feeling he doesn't like me as the others. He only talks to people who aren't that popular as me. That's kinda harsh for me that people don't even want to look at me for nothing I did. I cant change the way things are but I'm happy in my life right now so that counts. I'm sitting in the back so the teacher hopefully doesn't notice me.

As the hour goes by I have to go to history with the same quite kid I was in the arts class. It annoys me that he doesn't talk that much except he's being the smart-ass he is and raises his hand basically every second. You could hear the annoyance in my voice if I said that out loud.

The teacher I have in history is pretty nice. She rarely picks me and has the best theme for history and explains it really good. The theme we have at the moment is "all the countries around the world" which I'm excited for especially for Italy and spain because spain is the country my family comes from.

The teacher asked the question: " Which country is better to live in: Italy or England" Its the first question that I want to answer because it's an Italy question as the italy lover. So I raised my hand and said italy. Only seconds after Harry turned around and said:"Actually its England. Italy was a shooting in 2002 so it's not really that save there. Inform yourself, love" Oh god the smartass spoke and he really thinks he is better then me "oh the quite kid finally speaks up" I came back. The teacher looked at us which gave us the sign to stop. God why does he have to be the smartass he is. At least hes not the flirty guy. I can't wait to roast him in the future with my knowledge of italy
