My name is Amanda Banks and I am 15 years old and from California. I was one of those girls who started trends at school and thought that I was the best and that no one was better than me. Well that cost me my life all because I was dumb and to full of myself and to tell you the truth I think I really didn't enjoy my life that way being popular and all is actually very frustrating with all these people you dont even know trying to be like you is kind of annoying. But there was a girl that inspired me to become a better person, but since she was a better person than me so I made her life miserable. Back then I thought blowing out someone else's candle makes yours brighter, but now I know it actually doesn't. And so all of the crap I did led up to me living for only 24 more hours. Well I guess your waiting for me to tell you how I ended up like this, well here is how it happened...
"That is it you are on the end of the line Ms. Banks! ON THE END!" Miss Cooper was starting to shake. "You have to stop targeting people you will get expelled! As your principal I speak for all the student's, I am telling you most of our student's here think you have gone way to far to still go to this school. I'm sorry but if you bully anyone in any way there will be consequences, and those consequences will kick you out of school forever!" Oh my god! I can't believe I was hearing this a month into the school year, at a new school! "Calling someone ugly, fat and suicidal is not okay! And then when they tell the teacher, and then you get mad for a innocent person that was trying to defend themselves. So then you shave their head! Unbelievable in all my years of being a principal you are the worst student I have seen walk around these halls! So you more thing like this and you will be OUT!" Mrs. Cooper was the nicest principal ever because any stunts like this at my old schools and I would be out before I could even talk back. But there is no way that she would talk to me like that. " Um Mrs. Cooper I think that it is unexpectable to be yelled at when I wasn't the one who did it!" Ooohhh she was not ready for this! " What are you talking about, there is security footage. Amanda you have to own up to your mistakes!" Okay then are ready for this Mrs. Cooper " Ashley Cooper told me to do it, she told me to do everything! Yes your own loving daughter. I'm sorry Mrs. Cooper are you shocked?" Ha! You dont mess with Amanda Banks! I walked down the hall with a smirk on my face. Ashley looked at me as she got called down to the office.
RING! And before I knew it, it was last period. "Hey! Amanda are you exited for gym? Are you because I am!" Shelley thinks she is friends with me because I acknowledge her but really I don't like her she is annoying, like really annoying! " Um, No gym is my least favourite class." She looked at me with a big wide grin. " Me too! I hate gym! I said I was excited becaussssse, um.. I want the day to end and it is last period!" Ugh see what I mean but even though I wasn't excited for gym I got a surprise after. " Uh hey Amanda uh do you want to come to my party tonight and I just really want you to come because if you come anyone will come and I kinda uh want to talk to you gulp about something." This guy is my biggest crush ever his name is Josh but he is just a bit shy. "Omg of course I'll come!" To let him know I was interested in him I looked back at him as I walked away and gave him a little wink.
And I could tell he knew why I winked.
I got home and my mom was already making dinner. "Mom why are you making dinner already?" I think I scared her because she was so focused on making a nice dinner for me and my little sister. " Oh um well someone special is coming for dinner and the dinner I'm preparing takes hours to make so." Oh okay then. " So you must really like this guy, huh?" I asked as I was walking up the stairs to go reapply my makeup for the party. " Uh well you have no idea." She snicker quietly. As I was putting on my makeup I heard noises coming from outside, so I looked out and saw a girl that was in my class that I didn't really know. Her name was Tessa. She was wearing really nice heels, here shorts were bomb and her makeup was amazing! They were talking about Josh's party and Tessa's friends were like omg you have to go you can't study! Study? This girl was perfect I can't let that girl get like me or Josh won't only invite me for popularity!
But then I heard Tessa say Wait this is Amanda's house isn't it. She is so pretty and popular, I heard she is mean though." Rrrrgh that was it! I rushed down stairs and out the door. "So I'm mean? I chose to not talk to you and to leave you alone Tessa but you are just asking for it by calling me mean! No one has wanted to be bullied like you!"
OMG! She just stared at me with those pretty pure blue eyes and walked away.
But urrgh! The way she walked away, the way she handled it!
She was just to perfect.
Way to perfect...
