It's a my last school year. Senior Year. I can almost smell the academia season. It doesn't help the fact that everybody else in my grade is already 18, yet somehow stuck in a time warp at age five. Although I'm 17, younger than most of my peers, I'm more mature than most.
I am pretty ambitious, as well. Although I like theatre, my passion is to pursue psychology. Three of my four core subjects are AP courses. My GPA is more average, so I am not going to apply to Harvard or anything. I want to go to Bentley University, major in psychology, and minor in communications.
Back to the point- today is a crucial day to start the year right. Meaning it has to begin with coffee! I Glide out of bed, grabbing a cup from the cupboard and pouring myself an already made coffee into my travel mug. I see a note on the fridge from Mom
I'll be working late again tonight, sorry kiddo. Love, Mom
I sigh. Typical Cooperate Mom. At least she tries to be there for me, unlike Dad. Sure her job causes complications, but I usually enjoy my alone time. Mom says I should be more social. I have two very good friends that I see pretty often, that's all I need.
Nevertheless, I trudge upstairs, pulling out my phone. I text my boy BSF, Marcus
Hey, Marcus. Pick me up in 20?- Alex
Yeah Sure. Be ready, omw to Thalia's rn
I enter my room. I immediately head towards my closet. I pull out my black converse, a black tank, light wash jeans, and a black cardigan. I flick on some mascara and lip gloss. I accessorize using the necklace my mom gave me my last birthday. I skim the contents of my bag to be prepared. I throw it on and wait downstairs. Just as I hear a beep, I approach the door.
Waiting for me is Marcus's Silver car. I smiled, curtly nodding. I clasp the door, then sit down in the backseat.
"Everyone ready?" Marcus hummed
"Yes." I turn to Thalia " I don't know how you can be so talented at makeup"
"Yeah. A full-face just for another year of hell" she replied I elbow her in response
"Well you look great"
"Thank you. As do you." She pulls out her speaker, already scrolling on her phone " Ok, Björk, The Neighborhood, or Mtmxtoon?"
"You asked every time we already know you're going to play the Neighborhood no matter what we say. Not that I'm opposed to it, I rather like the I Love You album." I laugh
“What about wipeout al-”
“Before you say it, yeah I do have daddy issues, we know, blah blah, blah.” I interrupt her mini-rant
It's not long before we arrive at the school. Thalia and I have first-period, Honors Calculus, second-period AP European History, and fourth period AP English literature. Third-period (AP Environmental science), and Sixth-period Theatre Arts I have with Marcus. For period five I have lunch and break.
I enter my first three classes which consist of Icebreakers, syllabi, and checkpoint worksheets. Of course, as usual, I'm overprepared.
I can’t wait until I graduate. At least in college, I’ll study something I’m interested in. Speaking of college, I wonder how my brother Kael is doing.
After school, Marcus pulls up to my house.
‘Who’s car is that? It’s not your Moms?”
“It’s my brother's” I gasp in shock, it was particularly rare for him to visit home.”
“Tell Kael I said hi”
“Will do” I smile almost squealing with excitement, as my friend drives away.
