Well, since I'm leaving, my parents want me to have a journal/diary, or whatever you call it! So, well here it goes. Let's get a recap of my day.
It's the end of my sophomore year in high school. The kids are saying their farewells. Me? I already said my goodbyes. Not very many… people don't really pay attention to me. I'm pimple faced greasy haired loser, or so I'm told. So, Welcome to my world.
Now let me tell you, journal, the most interesting thing that happened to me today:
"HEY TENTEN!" I hear my only friend call out my name.
"Oh hey, I have bad news… " I said as I fingered my waist length hair.
"What?" She asked curious.
"I'm moving…"
So here I am, a sixteen year old girl moving away to live with her aunt and cousin for her last two years of high school. Tough huh?

Well, lets have another recap of my day so far. How does that sound journal?
"Oh my gosh! Tenten, is that you?" That would be my aunt… she's a spazz.
"Hello Auntie. Where's Selena?" I'm half Greek, half Chinese. Auntie is from my Greek side, hence her daughter's name, Selena.
"Oh, she's out and about, you'll see her later. For now, let's get you settled."
Well, that is all I did today. I met my aunt, and then went up to my new room and unpacked all my crap. Great day, huh?

The moment that Selena set her eyes on me… my whole life changed. Like, it took a 360 degree turn. Not cool, not one bit.
It all started when she came home from shopping with her friends… she saw my glasses, my hair, my acne and she walked over to my Auntie and told her something. Auntie nodded and they looked at me and smiled. My first thought was, 'Shit, this can't be good.'

The next morning was unusual for me. At first I thought I got kidnapped because I didn't recognize my room, but then I remembered I moved. The move made me think of Auntie and Selena, which made me think of their plan. I'm scared… of crap. Here she comes. I don't want to die! Journal, please save me!

Holy SHIT! I'm scared of myself. In a good way. I think…
Turns out their plan was to make me over. They chopped off a bunch of my hair, so it now reached three inches below my shoulders. They got me contacts, and now I have a bunch of beauty products; expensive shampoo, conditioner, makeup, lotion, face cleansers, you name it. It's all EWWWWW! I look so different. I was taken to a salon and they did my hair and nails and face and everything. I just finished a 'class' with Selena on how to use everything. She's gorgeous by the way. Her chestnut brown hair and her flawless skin and her beautiful sapphire eyes. Just so fricking gorgeous! She was wearing jean short shorts and an emerald green v-neck t-shirt. Simple but beautiful nonetheless. I felt like a loser next to her in my normal jeans and tee. I guess I'm lucky to have her help me make myself, beautiful. Or whatever.

School will start in two weeks. Selena is actually a senior at the same school as me, while I am/will be a junior. Fun right? Though, I have a feeling that I'm not going to be the greasy pimple faced loser everyone ignores,now that I've been made over into... I don't have a word to describe it.

Selena promised me that she would take me to the beach sometime this summer and today was the day. We put on our bikinis, covered up a bit and head out. The moment we got out of the car, all eyes were on us. It didn't help the stares when we uncovered ourselves.
Selena took off her lavender lightweight, knee-length spaghetti strap sundress to reveal a halter bikini with rainbow hearts scattered around the triangle pads with matching bikini bottoms. Her hair was in a ponytail and she was wearing waterproof mascara.
I took off my jean short shorts and yellow flowing halter to reveal a white halter with black straps around the back and around the neck. There was pastel sparkles of pink, blue, and yellow on the bikini as well. The bottom was board shorts that were black with white sparkly words on the back saying "PRINCESS". My hair was in two braids and I was also wearing waterproof mascara. Fun.
As the people, mostly boys, gawked, we started to get our back to school tans, since Selena and Auntie both agreed that it was a MUST. So sorry, journal but I must put you down because according to Selena, "It will ruin your tan if your moving your muscles!" So, I'll write later.
August 17, 2011 5:34pm.
By the end of today, I was sick of the stares, I liked my tan though. But I have tan lines… which totally suck. It bugs me, but it bugs Selena even more. Haha.
The biggest discovery today was at the beach, I saw a group of people, a few of their guys in the group were gawking, except one… who was totally the cutest. The other guys already had girlfriends I assume, cause they were totally cuddling and being all lovey dovey and crap.
I did get to play in the ocean, so I'm satisfied. Being "hot" is difficult. I don't like being the center of attention, but I think I'll get used to it. Or well... I'm pretty much screwed. And being Selena's cousin doesn't help one bit.

WHOOHOO! Back to school shopping. I love it! No sarcasm there, I'm serious. It's one of my favorite kinds of shopping. YIPPEEE! But the sad part about it is it means school is coming soon. I always hated school, because I didn't have any friends. I have Selena, but I see her at home anyways. I hope I'll make some friends this year. No, I WILL make some friends this year, thanks to this makeover. But hey, I don't know if I will even LIKE them. I guess I'll just have to wait. Fun.

Selena is taking me out today to the mall. We apparently MUST look perfect for the first WEEK of school, not day, WEEK. So we are buying ten outfits to choose from for the first FIVE days. We also apparently have to get manicures and pedicures, as well as a final trip to the salon to make sure our hair is perfect. And a general spa day. I'm scared about what she'll make me go through for prom. Shivers.

The day is done, and this is the end of my summer journal. I'm now the center of attention, no longer the greasy pimple faced dork. A new school with high beauty standards apparently. In sunny California, with a house on the beach. I live with my Aunt and Cousin. I have a new look, wardrobe, everything. I am no longer Tenten the loser, but Tenten the center of attention.
Welcome to my World.
Love,
Tenten.
Please let me know what you think. I think it's pretty good. :D I do accept anonymous reviews.
PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW! Thanks!
