Summary: Gabriella has been constantly bullied by the students of East High, she's finally fed up, all she wants for her birthday is a new look and some much needed confidence. But once she does get her new look, will she get some unwanted attention from the blue-eyed boy next door?
Gooddddd morning Albuquerque, it's a beautiful Thursday morning, the sun is shining, the birds a chirping, and here for you on the one and only 95.9PLJ is the new single by Colbie Caillat, to start out your morning right.
I've been awake for a while now
you've got me feelin like a child now
cause every time i see your bubbly face
I get the tinglies in a silly place
Gabriella rubbed her eyes and rose from her bed, she always hated waking from her dreams, they where always perfect in comparison to her everyday life. She grabbed her glasses off her side table, which where too big for her face. She walked towards her closet and picked out the first thing she saw, a pair of overalls and a plain shirt, finishing off by pulling her hair into a tight pony tail.
"Morning Mami." Gabriella said as she walked down stairs
"Morning honey, do you want any breakfast?" Gabriella's mom said as she held up a plate of pancakes
"You know that I could never deny your delicious pancakes, but I don't want to be late to school."
"Alright honey, have fun."
Gabriella sighed and walked on the door, just thinking about a fun day at school seemed far fetched.

Gabriella finally reached the school, and started towards her locker.
"Geeky Gabi!"
Gabriella instantly recognized the voice and started walking faster hoping to find someone. But it was unavoidable, she felt a push, hit against a locker and fell the to floor.
"When I call you, you listen!"
Gabriella looked up and it was none other than Troy Bolton and his basketball crew. She tried to stand herself back up but was kicked in the stomach and fell back onto the ground.
Gabriella winced in pain and prayed that there was no more to come.
"Now, I forgot my money at home, do you think you can lend me a few bucks?" Troy asked
Gabriella did nothing; she just grabbed her side and hope that they would just walk away. Again Gabriella felt another blow to her stomach, Troy just snickered and snapped his fingers. At an instant one of the basketball players, walked towards Gabriella and opened up the side pocket of her backpack and took out all her money. He handed the money to Troy, and walked back towards the rest of the group.
"Nice talking to you." Troy said as he put the money in pocket and walked away
Gabriella just crawled up into a ball and began to cry, moments later she heard footsteps. She began to silently pray that it wasn't Troy and his crew coming back for seconds.
"Bree!"
Gabriella was relieved to hear Sharpay's voice, she heard the steps quicken and Sharpay was quickly at her side.
"Not again Bree, not again." Sharpay said as she pulled her phone out and dialed a number
"Tay, you need to come now, it happened again."
Gabriella winced in pain as she tried to move
"Where in the math wing, and hurry." Sharpay continued
Gabriella soon heard more footsteps, which followed the voices of Taylor and Kelsi.
"Bree, what did they do this time?" Taylor asked
"Worse than usual, my stomach and side, I don't know if I can stand up."
Taylor and Kelsi quickly pulled Gabriella over their shoulders and balanced her up,
"Take her to my car." Sharpay said picking up her backpack

While driving her car Sharpay picked up her phone and dialed the school.
"Hello, yes this is Sharpay Evans, Gabriella Montez won't be coming into school today"
"Why you ask, there has been a family emergency, also myself, Taylor McKessie and Kelsi Nielsen won't be in school today either, she needs moral support." Sharpay continued sympathetically
"Have a nice day, you too." Sharpay said as she hung up her phone
Sharpay sighed and looked over towards Taylor,
"Its time for a change."
