*sits in the car, trying to ignore his parents as much as possible during the trip, writing in his journal, his 13 year old sister ashley sitting next to him listening to her headphones and reading YM. he looks over at her and glances at the magazine to see a shirtless ashton kutcher and licks his lips before returning his attention to his journal.*
i don't know why my parents are insistant on this. it's not like i'm really going to do much better. the schools in new york are perfectly capable of teaching me the same amount as this boarding school is going to...only they wouldn't have to shell out a gazillion dollars for it.
i can't help that i can't learn. i never asked for this disability. i mean, i'm sorry that i can't do math and science, but that doesn't mean they have to ship me off to a boarding school to try and learn it! it's not going to work either way.
plus the fact that i'll be older than everyone else. i'm a senior but i turned 18 when i was still a junior. either way i look like i'm freakin 21 or something. whatever. hopefully they won't shun me away cause i'm different. and my disability and age aren't even the half of it. i can't tell my parents...they'll freak. they have my map all planned out for me; i'm supposed to go to college, get a job, get married and have 20 babies. well mom and dad, you'll get those babies...but from Ashley, not me.
*looks out the window and sighs when the car pulls into the school gates* well...we're here. time to try and "change my life". yeah, right. i have a feeling that this is going to be my only outlet. here's hoping i get some friends, otherwise it's going to be a LONG year
*closes the journal and puts it back in his bookbag, slides out of the car and grabs his trunk full of clothes and sets off on his new adventure.* |
1 :: well? |
