I stared hard at my friend Kelly making sure she was the real Kelly and not some person who looks completely different from her. Then she grinned and I knew it was her, "Kelly!" I shouted with utter happiness. "Then one and only." She said gleefully. We hugged "Man, girl you changed like hell." She smiled "Yeah but that's on the outside I'm still the same girl on the inside." One of my best friends Kelly had gone to Florida to stay with her grandparents over the summer and she looked different. Not that I had also changed but I believe she changed dramatically. "Whatever…" I shrugged "if you say so Kel but come on lets go wait for Aria, Serenity, Kimmy, and Beca. I'm sure there here somewhere…" then after a few minutes I saw a recognizable head "Beca!" I shouted and made my way to her she also changed during the summer, then we found Aria, and Serenity. My friends have all changed and yet they were the same as always. It is the first day of school of starting high school. 9th grade and I'm turning 15 in a couple of months.

We, my friends and I were called the 'inseparable family' because we never separated from each other. I wasn't the ring leader of my group of friends sometimes they never took me seriously other times they do. "So" Beca was starting to say as we waited for the bell to ring. "What's your first class?" "Um…mine is Math with Mr. Bingleston." Said Aria. "Mine is also!" exclaimed Kelly. ""Man, that's amazing 'cause mine is too!" Beca said astonished. I was getting nervous. "Mine is English with Mrs. Martha." I piped up as my friends started talking about their schedules. They didn't seem to hear me, as always sometimes I felt like I didn't belong with this group of friends. But I don't care. Finally Aria turned to me "Man, Karina, you changed your wearing black and stuff like a goth." I shrugged so what I looked like a goth and seemed to talk like one but I'm still the same except that I lost weight over the summer making me look less ugly and with my black makeup and clothes and stuff it made me feel more comfortable "Oh, well I'm still the same aren't I?" "Um….not really?" "What do you mean?" I asked confused "Well you see the thing is you are much more silent then you used to be?" I stood there frozen. And I could feel that I was about to have a major mood swing "So what!' I hissed "What if I changed your still my friend and I'll always be your friend won't I?" I hissed angrily. My friends looked at me and seeing that I was in one of my mood swings stepped back.

Then my angry mood changed and I was sad "Well I'm off to my class see you around."

And I went to my class. I was unpredictable with my mood swings, but then I felt happy and nervous at the same time. Once in class I went to the back were hopefully the teacher wouldn't see me in class. The bell rang and students were paling inside the class. I watched them and seeing one of my guy friends Lenny I brightened up at least there's someone that I know of in one of my class.

The day turned out a bit slow at the beginning but before I knew it I was off to 2nd period Math the teacher Mr. Beveling. He's a grouchy teacher and I was lucky I sat in the back. He was also a boring teacher so I doodled in class writing my poetry about of course Blood and blood scenes. My friends would've groaned at the first word Blood, and I smiled then kinda laughed at the thought my friends liked my poems and stories I made. But unfornatly I think my laugh was a bit loud that Mr. Beveling stopped what he was doing and looked at me "What do you find so funny?" I sat there frozen for a moment and smiled causally and said also causally in my gothic voice "Oh, I was just thinking, of something. No big deal, Mr. Beveling I-" he cut me short "Alright, I get it, but Detention after school today, for not paying attention to my important class." My smile froze, how did he know? Detention! No F'ing Way! I NEVER GOT DENTENTION! Then I relaxed and smiled "Fine by me." I said. I leaned back in my chair and finally noticed that people were sniggering behind their hands I gave them all death glares when the teacher turned his back.

After Math I went to P.E. third Period I ignored everyone there and I did what my P.E. teacher, Mr. Gilbert, told us to do. After the trying third period, fourth cheered me up after one of my violent moods, depression and anger. It was Drama which I hate and that's why it cheered me up a bit because I loath it. Then to my relief lunch came. I waited for my friends by the Cafeteria and they came talking cheerfully and that made me bubbly so I talked as we ate. "So Math was a bummer I hate it." I said "How come its only our first day here." "Yeah well I have bad news to tell you all I got detention." I said to Beca. They gasped and I rolled my eyes "Its ok you know it's not like any one else got detention…" I trailed off and finished my food. "Well see you guys later I got to hit the books." What I meant was I'm going to the library. They nodded and continued talking.

I went to the library and checked out three thick books with my id card. Then went to one of the empty tables and started to read, not the moment to soon that I was bothered when I got to the Second chapter, that a group of guys came in a was making a lot of noise that I went to again my violent moods anger to the max I don't know why but I always have one of my moods anger to the max there was even an extreme anger where I would attack and maybe kill a person had that a couple times before with my older and younger sister to the point were I want to kill them almost did but my parents were in the way.

So back to the boy teenagers. I look up from were I was reading and saw four guys joking around and bothering other students who looked up annoyed but said nothing. "Hey!" I wanted to shout but I gritted my teeth and hissed "Shut the F. UP! For gods sake people are trying to read or do their homework." One of the guy's looked at me were I was sitting and smirked "yeah rrriigghhhttt." He said "like they are doing something ." "Either Shut the Fuck up or go outside were you baboons can make a lot of noise." I gritted my teeth tighter any tighter they might break. "Your not the boss of me." I stood up to my full height which was 6 foot 1 inch or something inches. I was a couple inches taller than all of them. Then the bell rang and my mood changed from angry which my other mood was just mad thank the heavens, to happy I smiled and made my way out grabbing my stuff.

I went to fifth period Science with Mrs. La Count, I like her she's cool. Then after that I went off to my 6th and final class World history were to my dislike the four guys from earlier to day was in there I sat in the back like in all of my class. "Hello, students, I am Mrs. Wroth Bottom call me Mrs. W. or W.B. or B. any will be fine. Ok I'm going to call out your names and your going to tell me you're here. Ok…now….Susan Mcbride, Kayla Dais,…." She went on and as she went on there was "Here" then she called me "Karina Cyanide," "I am here your grace." I said leaning back causally. "Jimmy McDaniel, John McDaniel, Chris Stone, and Alex Watson." The four boys chorused "Here" I looked at them Jimmy has black hair so did John twins I thought they looked alike both with green eyes, and same build Chris has blonde hair with deep blue eyes and a muscular build like Jimmy and John, Alex also but brown hair spiked up and black framed glasses behind the glasses were Black eyes. I could tell that they were all straight except Chris gay.

I stared at Chris and he seemed to know that someone was staring and looked at me I smile and gave him a knowing look. He blushed defiantly gay hmm….maybe I should pair him up with Lenny he's gay also. Yeah maybe I should….I shrugged mentally in my mind. And zoned off for the rest of the period. I met my friends while starting to walk back home "Hi!" I shouted them. "Hi" they shouted to me "Bye! I shouted and waved at them "Bye see ya tomorrow!" they called out and waved.

Once home I did my homework and stuff then I went to the fridge to look for something to eat. Nothing. I sighed and waited for my little sister to come home from grade school Kim my older sister left for collage three weeks before school started and it was more relaxing now that she was gone. I fell asleep watching TV. I woke up to the ringing sound of the phone I answered it "hello?" I asked tiredly "Hey its me I'm at Chelsea's house ok.?" "Whatever your just across the street." I answered back and hung up the phone. I grabbed my things and put them in my room and then took a shower seeing to the be 4:36; and mom is going to be home in another half hour.

As I got out of the shower 30 minutes later I couldn't help but notice that it was loud. I quickly changed and ran down stairs in to the kitchen. My mom was home wearing only a baggy t-shirt that is my dad's and sweats. "HI mommy." "hi." She said shortly. "Hey, mom I was , you know wondering," my mom groaned "Always wondering." She said I continued "if I could get you know a piercing for my b-day eyebrow maybe a couple piercing for my ears?" I asked quickly. "Maybe." Replied my mom maybe means no way in hell.

I fell asleep easily that night without memories and only dreams of me being a singer.
