Hey. Darren Troloski here. I would like to be a rapper and make music. My stage name would be... Young Spice. Email me back when you get the chance. I'd like to audition to be in the upcoming show Teen Artists. Have a great day/night.
After typing all of that, I clicked send. 11:59 at night. If I sent this a minute late, there would be no way I'd get the chance to audition in Teen Artists. I sent it before the next day, so I might get a chance. I hope the producers send an email back that says I can go to LA and audition. But I have an obstacle in my way. I just forgot what it was.
"Darren! It's time to go to bed!" my mom yelled.
And that's my obstacle. My mom. Geez, parents these days. Uh oh! I just realized something. There's no way in the world mom and Jeffrey would let me go from Miami to LA. My brother Deandre on the other hand would be happy to drive me from Miami to Mars... and leave me there. He hates me. Jeffrey might let me, but my mom would kill me for wanting to go. What's gonna happen if I do get a chance to audition? Oh yeah. I know what's gonna happen. My mom's gonna KILL ME!!!
"Darren Tyrone Trolosky! Turn off the lights and go to sleep!" she yelled. Yup. That's my mom for you.
The next morning, I woke up, got some left over chicken from the fridge, and worked on a rap song. My mom came into my room with envelopes. She was furious. Either those are about the auditions for Teen Artists or those are my grades. Math: F. Science: F. English: F. History: F. Everything else: Fs. Even gym. How does someone fail gym? Umm, by not showing up. Or... by not changing in the gym room because no one bothered to build bathroom stalls, so you had to change in front of guys who were probably gay. Or... my favorite... making a note saying "my son hurt his leg, he can't play" and faking my mom's signature then sitting out and playing on my phone. My mom was mad at me for the note thing and the skipping class thing. Like gym is even important. But anyways... yeah. I'm in so much trouble with my mom.
"Darren Tyrone! Summer school? Summer school?!"
"Summer school?" I was confused. She showed me an envelope that said Darren Troloski must go to summer school. I slapped my forehead. What about my audition?! How can I be in Teen Artists if I have to go to summer school? And why do I have to go to summer school? I get it. I failed every class. But summer means a break from prison AKA school. No one should go to summer school. Unless they're nerds who love school with a burning passion.
