Chapter 1

I looked at my reflection in the mirror. The same old boring face. Plain old dark brown hair and eyes. I let out a sigh and combed through my thick tangled hair, letting it fall down my back in waves and little curls. I applied some foundation, covering my blemishes and put on some eyeliner to make my eyes pop. I then put on a thin layer of mascara.

I walked down the stairs dreading school. I grabbed a bowl of cereal and slowly ate it. Once I had finished I packed my bag and hopped on twitter while waiting for my sister.

" Good morning everyone!! " I tweeted, of course though, no one would respond... I went through my notifications and followed back some people.

Finally my sister was ready and I was out the door.

--At school--

I arrive late for form assembly. Walking in the teacher gives me a disapproving look as I sit down. I roll my eyes and look at my phone.

''Don't forget you're babysitting tonight after school!''

I had to babysit my neighbors. Twin girls Carly and Charlie. They're 5 years old and very energetic! Yay..

From: Emma♡
''Not long now!''

Emma was my best friend from Sydney we have been friends since we were 7! But then I moved to Melbourne, we still talk everyday through text and twitter though. Last night we were planning to get a place together in Sydney after we graduate.

I sent a quick reply to Emma.

To: Emma♡
"Can't wait to finally see you! I'm so done with school!"

Then read my last message.

From: Ash♡
"See you in music xx"

Ash or Ashley is my best friend here in Melbourne, she is tall and has blonde hair and blue eyes. We have music class together and we have the same taste in music. She's the only person who understands me here.

I send her a quick reply

To: Ash♡
"See you there ;)"

After sitting in my seat for another couple of minutes the bell finally goes and I rush out of the room to music.

I walk into the music room and sit down in my usual spot. Music was by far my favorite subject. It's just so chilled and relaxed. And what can I say? I love music!

I admired the room, guitars hung from their racks in the corner, posters of popular artists stuck to the wall and other various instruments were scattered around the room. Finally Ash walked into class, I gave her a quick hug and she took the seat next to me.

Just then the teacher walked into the room.

"Good morning class" she said greeting us cheerfully.

"Good morning Ms Smith" the class mumbled back.

"Today you will be starting your assignments!" She exclaimed. "You will have to perform an original song! You can sing or play an instrument or both. This can be completed by yourself or with a partner. I will give you the last two weeks we have left to compose it, then you must perform it to the class! Right, off you go!" She finished.

Me and Ash turned to each other. Of course we were going to be partners. She was a great singer and I played guitar. It was my dream to become a song writer.

We both got up out of our seats and walked over to the guitars I grabbed one and we took a seat in one of the small practice rooms.

"So. " I say "what type of song are we gonna write" I ask her.

For the rest of the class we started off brainstorming ideas and playing around with some chords and tunes. The bell went and we left for our next class.
