The New School Year

The school year is pretty fun I guess... but you'd think that eighth grade would be very different from seventh grade! I mean there's a few new people and some new teachers, but most everything is the same as we all left it! Let's just hope there are some changes in this new school year (good changes) so that I can look forward to each coming day.

Ever wonder how long it takes to change your life? What measure of time is enough to be life-altering? Is it four years, like high school? One year? An eight-week walking tour? Can your life change in a month, or a week, or a single day? We're always in a hurry to grow up, to go places, to get ahead... but when you're young, one hour can change everything.

-Lucas Scott, "One Tree Hill"

What happened to us, you know? I don't know who I am anymore, or how I got here. I miss who I used to be. I want to have a home again, you know? And real friends; you know the kind of friendships we used to believe in. I miss that. And I miss you. I guess I just miss all of it.

As I began to get deeper into the book, my attitude began to change. I had started reading because I had to get this prize. But soon I read because I wanted the prize.

I hate the way you talk to me, and the way you cut your hair.
I hate the way you drive my car. I hate it when you stare.
I hate your big dumb combat boots, and the way you read my mind.
I hate you so much it makes me sick; it even makes me rhyme.
I hate it, I hate the way you're always right.
I hate it when you lie.
I hate it when you make me laugh, even worse when you make me cry.
I hate it that you're not around, and the fact that you didn't call.
But mostly I hate the way I don't hate you... Not even close, not even a little bit,
not even at all.
