Saturday, June 2nd my mother suddenly wanted to talk to me the body gestures she expressed made it obvious something was going to change eventually. And in the matter of seconds my mother tells me
"Janice I've come to a conclusion and your going to a new school for you eighth grade year" my mother told me
Let me just update you I've been trying to get into this private school since third grade and I usually was never admitted. Since my parents got divorced it messed up me personally and I came to a breaking point I must admit. I was basically acting out skipping class rolling my eyes at teachers and failing classes now that I think about it I'm suprised that my school promoted me to the next grade.
Now that I updated you my mother was basically telling me that I got accepted into the school I use to fanatise about ,before I could say anything she cut me off.
"We are going to need to go get your uniforms and aren't you excited about your skirts? And your sweaters I'm so proud of you my honor roll student" she continued
"Yay" I said sarcastically, I enjoy being girly and wearing shorts and everything but I never really wore skirts to the point I would be comfortable with it so I usually agree with her because she'll tease me about anything I speak up about my mother is a one upper for sure.
So the next day we went to a store that specializes in private school uniforms and I tried everything on and I finally got everything two skirts one pair of pants and two shirts and one sweater.
In total everything came to $200 dollars and man that made me mad I just kept thinking about what I could've done with it. I could've bought all the hardback covered twilight books and Harry Potter books. I could've bought so many pairs of vans obviously they'd be black I usually try to keep anyone's attention off of me and black is my favorite invisible cloak.
After that we drove back home and I kept trying everything on and I realized I didn't have anything that would make me cool. I only bought one pair of black platform vans and all of my other shoes was given to my mother because her feet are surprisingly smaller than mines so she gets my hand-me-downs. But I realized that was perfect would I be known as the girl "who wears one pair of shoes and has no life and is funny looking". No one would care that my name is Janice which would be perfect.
I only had two more days to spare and must I say I had a lot of confidence but now that time was ticking it all disappeared into dust. At least my hair was freshly done I had box braids that were pretty small and were to my mid back and I loved them since they covered my face. No one would be able to see me and that's what I was going for , as the days went by all I did was watch vampire diaries. I sound like a cleyshay but who cares I stayed up until 2:00am watching the show. "I love Damon and ellana but I have one pet peve Caroline how does she get to have all of ellanas ex boyfriends she needs to get a grip" I told my bestfriend on FaceTime. Marj don't you agree with me to confirm her opinion
"Of course I do janny I'm pretty sure your crazy because all you do is talk about Damon I have to go now I have school tommorow you have an extra day since your leaving me" marj said
"I understand I love you talk to you later" I replied
I tried to fix my schedule but obviously it didn't work.
The days went by and the day came "the first day of school" I prefer prison . I didn't want to get out of the bed my depression was horrible I started to feel sad for myself. My mom was calling my name so I had to pull myself together I looked for my glasses for a good 15 minutes and I finally got up. I brushed my teeth and put my clothes on and no I don't take showers in the morning because I'm to scared of my pores being open and me getting sick. So I was prepared with my Victoria secret book bag with the irraddsent studs that spelt "pink" all over it. Put all my books and binders in my book bag and me and my mom took the trolley to my school. "my school is in the popular area of my city so it's to much traffic to drive a car so we used the trolley as a safe substitute. I was quiet the whole ride and there was the school I didn't want to enter but my mother was there with me my heart traveled to my knees and I'm walking slowly I'm guessing not slowly enough.
