One Monday morning my mom called me and said Your going to be late for school. I yelled back Good I want to be late now leave me alone. and I went back to bed. She called me again so I got up because I knew I wouldnt hear the end of it if I didnt get up.
I rolled out of bed, pulled on my clothes and stumbled down the stairs. The time was 8: 30 and I didnt have time to eat so I brushed my teeth, and hair, and washed my face. I needed a pop to make it through first period so I stopped by the store, but the shipment hadnt come in and all they had was wussy pop so I left. I made it to school right when the bell rang so I ran to homeroom so that I would not be late.
Then I found out we had a English test and I knew I should have slept in. I had two spares to study for my next test and to work on this awful story. I knew that I wasnt going to be able to get both things done so I picked the story to work and try to get a decent mark. I thought and I thought but I ran out of ideas.
Then I asked a trusty source for short story ideas, the one, the only: (drum roll please) [insert name of friend here], [friend] is a short but solid kid, he has copper hair and sometimes wears glasses. I asked [friend] for some ideas for my story but that was a blank because he just came to school because he skipped period one English. So I sat down and put on my green thinking hat, … Well that didnt work. So I sat down and thought some more: think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think, think. Still drawing a blank so here I go again: think, think, think, think, think, think.
The Essay on Friend Named Jenny High School
Dear Jenny, Hey, how's it going in Gainesville? Are you on top of your classes, or is the partying getting to you? He he, just kidding. I'm sure you " re doing great. Things are good here at UF, I'm meeting a lot of people and my dorm is great, if a little small. It's definitely not like high school; remember those days? We did a lot of stuff together. We always hung out and we were the best of ...
Well I guess I will have to tell you about the rest of my day even if it hasnt happened yet. Period 3 I am still working on this story (which isnt going anywhere fast) and stil asking [friend] for ideas to put in my story. At lunch I go to [teacher] for chemistry help before the test and hope that he has the time. Then I go to my next class which is information processing and work on my web page which is in the final steps of completion. Then I try to skip next period so that I can study, but I hand in this short story and the principal is waiting at the door and says with an evil laugh I thought that you might try to skip your chemistry test. And for the rest of the day I wondered how they managed to stay one step ahead of me.
I try to think of new ideas as I run the spell checker and the word count but it doesnt take long enough. I try to think of more ideas as I talk to [friend] about the Simpsons and I check out his web page. [friend] finally figures out how to put links in his web page and everyone in the class flocks around his computer to look at his web page and Americas favourite fatboy Homer J. Simpson And then [another friend] tells [friend] to show me a picture on [a third friend]s web page and, and, and HOLY SMOKES THATS THE BEST PICTURE OF HOMER SIMPSON THAT I EVER SAW. Well period 2 is almost over and I am still writing this stupid story but not for much longer. Now back to my day.
I go home and rake leaves for a couple of hours, and when I am tired of that I go inside but when I get inside my mom gets mad at me for not doing my story and that I was supposed to call the teacher and tell her why my story isnt handed in. Instead I call [yet another friend] and ask if I can come over so that I dont have to work on this story. The next day I get to school and there she is waiting for me! ! . The evil principal is standing by the office. I duck just in time and I crawl out the door only to be confronted by the next evilest person [evil teacher]! . I scream in terror as the principal walk out the door and says So you thought you could get away did you.
