Julianna Rose Barter. That's me. Most people call me Julianna or Jules. Which ever suits you is fine by me. I'm 17, going on 18 living in a little coastal town in California called Lewiston. I'm a senior at McNair Acadamy. We have all the normal stereo-typical teenagers like most high schools; the jocks and cheerleaders - then there's everyone else. Nothing interesting really happens here. Until the new boy, Shane Johnson, shows up. Julianna and her best friend, Rachelle Simmons, are best friends forever. They have high hopes for their last year of high school with Julianna's twin brother Jackson and their best guy friend Nick Marx. The foursome has been inseperable when they met in preschool at age 3. With boys and drama will they ever survive the year? What happens when college arrives next year? And what about this new boy Shane? All she wants is a perfect year, a perfect summer, perfect friends, the perfect boyfriend,and a perfect life.
