I moaned as light shone through my curtains and into my eyes. I woke up and got out of the bunk bed me and Ariel shared. As usual she was up before me.But I mean whats wrong with sleeping in? I went downstairs to smell the sweet aroma of bacon and eggs. I ran to the kitchen table and sat down in my chair and ate. Then I went upstairs. I took a quick shower, got dressed in a lilac sundress with flip-flops, and curled my hair. I don't usually dress up like this, but we are in sixth grade now. There's a chance we could get our pictures taken. So I just want to be safe. I grabbed my bag and ran outside. It was warm. As it always was in Tampa,Florida. The bus wasn't here yet but my friend sent me a text saying it was around the block.Ariel was still inside. She was just coming out the door when the bus arrived. I sat down to my friend Nicole and Ariel sat down next to her friend Carly. "So Shaeleigh, are you excited?" Asked Nicole. "About?" I asked.
"Sixth grade!"
"Oh... I guess..."
"I guess?!"
"Yeah I guess. No need to rephrase."
"Your just not a morning person"
"I am too!"
"Then prove it!"
I crossed my arms and looked out the windows the rest of the way. When we arrived I was surprised. There wasn't one teacher waiting outside of any of the buses to take our pictures. Instead they were surrounding the new principal, interviewing him and taking pictures, what a publicity hog. I walked to the classroom. I could already tell I was going to have a mean teacher. She was wrinkled and she had one of those "I'm going to punish you" Faces. "Take your seats..." She said. Her voice was low and harsh. "And get to it. We don't have all day!" The whole class moaned. Let the torture begin...
