Such is High School

Big Breath in, Big Breath out. JUICE!  That's what my friend used to tell me whenever anything was bothering me. Unfortunately that policy doesn't work for Math - The Bane of My Existence.Another ditch in the road that is High School. So here I am stuck here, head spinning with numbers that have no solutions.

The novelty of the new girl has finally worn of, whether this is a good thing or a bad thing is yet to be decided.

The school its self, well that is also yet to be decided. nee buildings, new people, new teachers. My life has changed more than even I can comprehend. So why aren't I missing the old one? I have never been a fan of change. I miss my friends. I miss my mum. I have no regrets.

This is my life now, with the good and the bad.

P.S: So I guess I've written a diary entry, which (after my first post) I have been trying to avoid, or at least make it more interesting.

The Story so Far...

Once upon a time there was a Princess. But she wasn't like the usual princesses. She didn't claim to be beautiful or bright or covered in jewels. She was a princess that was just like all the other peasants in the village.

One day the Queen crept into her bedroom while she was sleeping. She roused the princess who then sat up with a little yawn. The queen told the princess that she was to be sent seven hours away for the summer because she couldn't stay cooped up in the castle all day long.

But the princess didn't want to go blueberry picking. She had to focus on her studies and she had plans with her friends. The queen wasn't happy with this at all. So after many words shared the queen told the princess to pack her bags and travel to live with the kind, who lived many miles away from the queen. The princess unwillingly obliged and packed her bags in anticipation for the kings arrival.

Since that day the princess has been living with the king much to the queens dismay. Many tears have been shed, and the queen and the princess have gone their separate ways. Will they ever be be reconstituted or will they forever remain enemies stuck in a stupid feud?

The New Girl

Walking through a crowded building, folder clutched to my chest. Everyone was staring at me. I could feel their eyes on me, burning with curiosity. Who was she? Why was she here? I was the shiny new toy.  They already knew that I wasn't one of them.
As we shuffled into the crowded hall I tried to find my place. The hall was split in two. I picked a side. The wrong side. Thankfully I was saved. She said hello. She smiled. Maybe I wasn't so different. There were others, like me. Lost in confused. Utterly bewildered by the enormity of the world they had been tossed into.
I said my name over and over as the day progressed. "Hi, I'm Scarlet." So many introductions, so many names to  remember. People smiled and greeted me, some would never speak to me again, others would become an important part of my life for years to come. Some I remember, others drifted from my memory after mere hours.
Lost in a world of would be friends and could be enemies will I ever find a place? Will the shiny new toy lose it's sparkle and find a comfortable place on the shelf? It seems only time will tell. Until then I will enter my new life with confidence and grace, even if i have to bury the knots in my stomach deep inside and wait until the 'new' part is over.
