Chapter 1

*BEEP BEEP BEEP* My alarm clock sang from its perch on my dresser. "Shut up." I muttered groggily as i attempted to throw my pillow at it. It hit my dresser causing it to shake, but did that fix it? No.

I finally surrendered and staggered across my room to shut it off. By then I was wide awake, so I headed downstairs to have breakfast. My big sister Julie and my younger sister Violet were already sitting at the table munching on some cereal. "Mornin." I muttered "Right back atcha." Julie said cheerfully.

"Sleep well Dani?" Violet asked her sightless eyes staring at the wall. "Kinda I guess." I stated slowly. As I poured a cereal into my bowl my other sister, Amanda's alarm clock went off. After about 5 minutes it was still going. "God, Julie muttered "She could sleep through an atomic explosion."

After about 10 minutes Amanda staggered down the hall with Julie not to far behind. As I dumped the rest of my milk down the drain Julie told me to go get ready for school. Up in my room I pulled on a pink t-shirt and some faded jeans, my mother's old jeans. "HURRY UP WE'VE GOT 5 MINUTES!" Julie screamed. "AMANDA I'M TALKING TO YOU!" She added, loudly.

"Have a good day at school Dani." Julie called from the car "You too." I yelled back. I began walking to the doors of Witherman High School. Another cruddy day at school. Ithought warily. Oh well guess I'll have to make the best of it.

As I staggered to my locker the warning bell rang Crap! I thought. My 1st period is all the way across the school Guess I'm toast. I began to make a run for it. I plopped down in my seat just as the bell rang. Phew...I'm on time. whoa, I'd never actually been on time before. My science teacher Mrs. Maltoleny (yeah it's a mouthful) waddled in slowly.

"Class," she began "As you all know the science fair is coming up." Everyone groaned, cept' me cause I'm a science geek. "So today," Mrs. Maltoleny added. "You will all be begining your science fair projects. Choose a subject and start your research." She babbled on and on but I didn't listen. I was already thinking up ideas for mine.

By the time she had handed out our information sheets I had already decided on amoebas. I quickly filled it out, turned it in then rushed of to second period.
