Dear Diary,
My name is Edga Mallen. I live in Sedona, Arizona. I am 14 and in 8th grade my birthday is in two weeks. I'm so excited, I'm going rock climbing with my friends. My name is, actually, Edgar, how this came about is that my parents are Edgar Allen Poe freaks and when they had two girls one had to be sacrificed to be called Edgar, and since I was the second child I was named Edgar. My 16 year old sister, Kathryn, used to tease me about it when we were little while I used think of my self like George from Nancy Drew.
I closed my new diary. It was an early birthday present from my Aunt Sandra. I swung my backpack over my shoulder grabbed my ipod and ran out of my room. I sprinted out the door yelling good-bye to my mom on the way. I jumped up the steps of the bus and sat down in my usual seat. I put on my headphones and looked out the window. Later, I felt a tap on my shoulder and someone slid in next to me. I took off my headphones and turned around to see my friend Alberta. She gave me the 'eye'. This meant the 'Maddicide' was behind us. Maddie, or Maddicide what younger kids called her, was the biggest kid in our grade and the biggest bully. So when I felt a tug of my hair and immediately knew who it was.
"How are you doing, straw head?".
She was actually right about that my hair was long, straight and dirty blond. My hair is also always dry as heck. If my hair was personified it would be straw, but still I just had to have a comeback,
"Who's straw head?" I said without even turning my head.
"You are, Dork." She shoved my head against the front of the seat. Holding me by the neck she held me there. I have to say Maddicide might not be the master of verbal comeback, but she was good at the physical ones.
"Stop it!" Alberta tried to push her hand away but Maddie was too strong.
"Stay out of this, Airhead." As soon as she said that she wanted to take it back. Alberta has a reputation. Growing up with 4 older brothers, you learn how to throw a good punch and this one landed right on Maddie's big, fat nose.
