Chapter 1, Form
Hi, so here's a couple of things you should know about me. I'm thirteen years old, and my name is Phillipa, or Pippa. So, I'm walking into my form door on a Monday morning, it's April, so it's warmish (well, warmish for England which is still quite cold). My form tutor, Miss West is definitely not the best form tutor in the School, but she's all right. Although she does make my form, HWE, have a seating plan. When I walk in I can only see Jack and Leon, some year 7's and Owen Johnson who's in my year, and most of my lessons sitting down even though the bell has just went.
"We have a special main school assembly today and the topic might excite you." Miss West went to me, I just rolled my eyes at and sat down.
"Why do we have main school assembly today? We only ever have it on Thursday." I asked Owen, who sits behind me in form,
"I dunno but Miss West said its exiting so it's probably gunna suck," Owen replies, he was probably right though, Miss West's taste in things that teens like nowadays isn't so great.
Then most of the form turned up, talking, as usual, Declan, another year 7 boy, Katherine and Anna, two of my best friends, Arron, Connor and Leon, some year 8 boys, Ben, Dan (known as Mini because he's a midget), and Chris, all year 9 boys, and Holly the only year 10 in the form.
"Err right sit down and stop talking I need to take the register, we have main school assembly in the hall," Miss West went to us, as usual we didn't not stop talking. "Err I said stop talking," Miss West finally had made her voice heard over the form's chattering.
Then Jess, a friend of mine but she's better friends with Anna, walked in, who had probably just been doing her makeup in the toilets. Then Miss West took the register with a few interruptions from Ava and Nadine, the year 9 girls, who are really nice, especially Ava, and Ibrahim (known better as Ib), another year 8 boy and the three year 11's Josh, Ben and Craig walked in (yeah, my forms not the best at being on time).
"Now we all need to go to the hall because we have main school assembly" Miss West said to the form, again.
"Why do we have assembly Miss? It's Monday." Craig moaned across the classroom to Miss West.
"Because we have some visitors today" Miss West went cheerfully.
Then the form all sighed in annoyance. (Surprise, surprise)
"It's probably the Terrible Trash Troopers or as they like to call themselves the 'Trinity Trust Team' coming to talk about God, again" Anna whispers to me.
"Yay," I reply sarcastically.
"Err don't be like that, they've come all the way from America just to come here" Miss West angrily replied to the class'
"Are they the people that own McDonalds and are really fat?" Ib called out (he's a complete idiot in case you hadn't guessed. He used to be quite mean to me but my best friend Alice shut him up with one look (she's good at that))
"Err, don't be so rude Ib" Miss Walters shouted at him, Miss Walters was the forms EVIL co-tutor, she isn't really a proper teacher she is only does SEN which is like a class for pupils who have learning disabilities. (and she treats all of us like mental patient five year olds (Alice's words, not mine))
Then the whole form burst out laughing, Josh even fell off his chair onto the floor because he was laughing so hard.
"Josh get up now!" Miss Walters was now losing her patience with the form – even though she had only been in there for about a minute.
"Ok now can everyone stand behind their chairs we need to go to assembly now," Miss West announced to the class.
As per usual she made everyone wait until their row's uniform was perfect (ties done up, top buttons done up and shirts tucked in, God why are teachers so annoying?) and when everyone's uniform was perfect the form were allowed to make their way to the hall for assembly.
