Haha.this is a REALLY bad story but I felt like writing Degrassi fanfiction and I wanted them to go to the place where I live, so here it is. Flamers are always good! Lol. I appreciate any feedback. ¡Gracias!

"Ugh, I am so ready for summer," sighed Emma Nelson as she was walking through the halls of Degrassi Community School with her best friend, Manny Santos.

"Isn't everyone?" replied Manny. It was the first week of June, which meant that the students at DCS had just over a week left of school. There wasn't anyone, with the exception of Liberty Van Zandt possibly, that wasn't looking forward to three months of freedom from homework, teachers, and tests.

The two girls entered their homeroom. After a few minutes of waiting for the bell to ring, Liberty's homeroom announcements showed up on the TV set.

"Attention all Degrassi students!" she said. "The end of the year is coming up quick! As a celebration of summer, all students are invited on a five day trip to California the week following commencement. Forms for the trip will be passed out in your homeroom. See you then!"

The sound of excited murmuring throughout the class could be heard. "That would be SO much fun!" Manny exclaimed.

"Yeah, and so completely bad for our environment," replied Emma. "Do you know how much tourism affects our Earth? It's -" Manny sighed. "Emma, just shut up. Come on, you know you'd have tons of fun."

"Whatever," replied Emma. Deep inside, she knew she really would have fun but she didn't want to admit that Manny had been right.

"So, do you think you're gonna go to Cali with our school?" Hazel Aden asked Paige Michaelchuk as they were sitting at the benches in front of Degrassi, eating lunch. "I mean, it seems kinda lame. There will be teachers there. And little Grade Eights."

"Yeah, and?" asked Paige. "Hun, it's California! As in Hollywood! As in movie stars! Hot movie stars. What more could a girl ask for?"

"Dude," said Spinner Mason, sitting next to Hazel. "I'm going surfing. Totally."

"Uh, sure, Spin," Paige said. "Anyway, so how can you not go Hazel?"

Hazel bit her lip. Paige did have a point. It was California with celebrities, sun, and surf. Hanging around middle schoolers wasn't exactly her idea of a great time, but maybe they could "I'll think about it."
