As I woke on the last day of August I realized it was my first day at Bullworth Academy. I stretched out as much as I could and happily jumped out of bed. I walked over to my closet which held the uniform that was ugly yes, but the uniform I had waited all summer to wear. The blue was not flattering at all to my olive colored skin but I pulled it on anyway and looked in the mirror. I smiled at my reflection as I tore it back off and walked to the bathroom, towel around my body. Of course the door was shut, so I pounded it three times.
"One minute I'm doing my hair!" My brother said from the other side.
"Ricky I have to take a shower!" The door opened as my older brother Ricky stood in the doorway. People all the time would ask if we were twins. We both had the same facial features, same dark hair, and the same deep brown eyes. My hair went just below my shoulders and his hair was full of grease that he obviously had just put in to make it comb back and stay like that. "No wonder you don't have a girlfriend." I said walking past him and pushing him out of the doorway. As I showered I wondered how my first day would be. Would I meet some awesome girls that would befriend me right away? Or even better, a boy that would catch my eye, and hopefully I would catch his. I liked Lefty a lot since I was in elementary school. He hung out with Ricky all the time. But for some reason Lefty refused to come over the house last year. Maybe our mother scared him away. She was really good at that. But she was recently checked into Happy Volts Asylum for drinking too much. Maybe it will do our family some good…
