The day started out like any other. Students filed out of buses and cars,
and entered the school building, ready to face the final day of exams.
Fiona walked up the stairs bound for her locker. As the commotion of the
final day of school rushed through the corridor, she took out the two
remaining books and placed them into her backpack, and closed her locker
for the last time. As she made her way down the stair well, she thought of
numerous things she would miss about high school, then she laughed to
herself and continued on to the East Side of the building. Miranda had
just arrived at school and made her way to her locker. Running into Fiona,
as she always did, they started their daily conversation of non-sense.
"Miranda! Can you believe this?" Fiona exclaimed, stopping beside Miranda's locker. "We've already had commencement and we came back! Are we sane?"
"Um no?" Miranda stated without doubt. "I don't think so. But we're only here for the first hour. We have to get out portfolios from Zeise remember?"
"Yea, I know! It's just that I'm so anxious to get some of those sexy drugs!"
"Yes, I know the feeling! It'll be the last time we get to see "The Fellowship of the Ring" on the big screen!" Miranda said with a poignant look about her. The girls were what they so affectionately called "Tolkienites". After school, they were going to see "The Fellowship" again as sort of a "end of evil high school" celebration.
"Don't forget your book!" Fiona reminded her.
"Would I, or could I ever do such a thing?" Miranda laughed as she grabbed her copy of Tolkien's "The Two Towers", and her last hanging pin up of Orlando Bloom. The girls chatted some more, making their way through the chaos to the chemistry lab. As the bell . . . er . . . the tone toned, they took their seats and Mr. Zeise greeted his seniors one last time.
"I'm so proud of you guys!" he exclaimed, as he dried a false tear. "I'll pass back your portfolios first, and you'll have the hour to do whatever." So he passed back the portfolios and the students "reflected" upon their prior years at the high school. Except Fiona and Miranda of course. They pulled out their books and began reading.
"What chapter are you on?" Fiona asked her friend.
"'The Taming Of Smeagol', you?"
"Ha! I passed you! I'm on 'The Window in the West'." They laughed and began their reading.
45 minuets later . . .
"Grr! Time flies when you get into something! There are three minuets left!" Miranda exclaimed.
"Ahh! Time is bringing us closer to our destiny!" Fiona said with a delighted look upon her face. 'We'll get our final fix of 'the fellowship' and then depression until it comes out on video." They sighed and started packing their things. They turned their lab books in to Mr. Zeise and the tone toned. The girls hurried to their lockers to collect remaining notebooks and papers, and took some times to say good-bye to their friends. Miranda got in her car, and met Fiona at the front of the building.
"Well Mrs. Baggins - Wood, it's time to roll!" Miranda said as Fiona loaded into the car.
"Yes! And now, we bask in the reverence of "the fellowship!" She smiled, and Miranda pulled away from the school for the last time.
"Miranda! Can you believe this?" Fiona exclaimed, stopping beside Miranda's locker. "We've already had commencement and we came back! Are we sane?"
"Um no?" Miranda stated without doubt. "I don't think so. But we're only here for the first hour. We have to get out portfolios from Zeise remember?"
