.:well, hello diary! grunkle Stan decided that 'young girls like yourself should be writing there troubles down or talking about it and no thank you' so here i am! so...let's get this started!
she got to school early and sat down at one of the school tables
.:dear diary: i like to think i'm a good person, i think there's good in everyone really but here we are it's the first day of senior year and i look around at everyone I've known my whole life here in gravity falls and i wonder...what happened?.
she looks around from the table she was sitting at to hear chants of insults and stabs at each other "freak! slut! burnout! bug eyes! poser! lard ass!" ...nope
.:we were so small and happy playing and smiling together, even jessebell abethabell my kindergarten sweetheart is mean now, it makes me hate unicorns...it was kind of our thing you know?
"freak! slut! loser! shortbus!"
.:singing, laughing, cookies total happiness everyone was like best friends
"bull dike! stuck up! hunchback!"
.:but then i guess we all grew older, insecure...it made them all attack,like a trigger, and this school isn't school anymore, it's the freaking thunderdome-
as she wrote that last part some kid knocked into her back and glared like she was the one that did it ...sitting down "uhhh sorry!" she yelled out...
.:just hold your breath Mabes, count the days you're graduating soon college will be paradise "White trash!" ...if i'm not dead by June that is... but, i know, i do i know life can be beautiful, i pray and pray for a better way if we could all change so drastically back then we could change again, we could be beautiful
she went to stand up she knocked into another student "OW!" 'oh my gosh i'm sorry, hey are you okay?!" "eww get away nerd!" he yelled back" i think his name was bill "oh uh s-sorry bill?" she tried she did "tch" and he was gone...
"freak! slut! cripple! homo! homo! homo!"
.:things will get better soon as my letter comes from ANY of those art colleges, away from this coma take my diploma then i can blow this town! i dream of the plant covered walls and candy filled cafe's-
HE knocked into me "watch yourself~" he walked away with a wink damn lil'creep
.:fight the urge to strike a match and set this dump ablaze Mabel, that's what the kids call illegal
and suddenly her book was out of her hands knocked onto the floor by "ooopsie daisies~" Gideon gleeful lives up to the name he's third year theater king and eighth year or tormenting me and being a huge douche "what was that pumpkin?" the smile looked kinda forced "uhh nothing..." Mabel grabbed her book and...booked it.
.: but i know i know life can be beautiful i pray and pray for a better way, we were kind before we can be kind once more we can be beautiful this had become a kind of mantra for her writing it out every now and then to remind herself "they could still change"
as she was musing this she didn't notice the two shadows crowd her in till she looked up "AAAAAHHH, hey Grenda, Candy..." Mabel began sheepishly "hey!" they both cheered in unison although VERY differently Grenda and Candy...my best friends since diapers...well... "are we still on for movie night" asked candy taking Mabel out of THAT thought "yeah, what did you guys pick?" Grenda replied next "I rented the princess bride!" ..."again? but don't you have it mesmerized by now" Mabel chuckled a bit at her friends enthusiasm "what can i say, i'm a sucker for a happy ending" ... why such sweet girls were unpopular Mabel had no clue Grenda while gruff and tough was hilarious and amazing with make up plus her boyfriend living far away, but uhh no one believed her who would believe someone saying that a prince fell in love with them? but i know it's true then there's candy, quirky sweet but her morbid humor has set her back a little -sigh- oh well. -SLAM- and there goes Grenda's books "Grenda troll! hahaaa" ghost eyes no one knows his actual name just that he was held back 2 years and became best friends with Gideon (Gideon's lackey) he is the smartest guy on the foot ball team, which is kinda like being the tallest dwarf (imagines Gideon) he started highfiving people for it and Mabel just burst
"hey pick that up!" everyone went quiet as he walked up to her angrily "excuse me peasant?"
"you heard me! what gives you the right to pick on my friends, you're a high school has been waiting to happen just a future gas station attendant or crook!" he looked a her for a moment really focused "you've got a zit right there" he poked her forehead really hard as people started laughing
.:dear diary WHYYYYY!
but everyone had there whys, why do they hate me, why don't i fight back, why do i act like such a creep like i said everyone's got insecurities problems they're afraid of so they attack others...i just wish it were different come on give me a sign, some hope, something to live for!
at that it was like the heavens shined down upon her everyone parted way as THEY came through the heather's and their leader they just float above it all the first heather, heather A head cheerleader her dad is filthy reach working for the northwest's but she's actually kinda sweet and her hair looks like a pompom..
heather B runs the yearbook comity always follows her orders but is actually really mean herself but her mom payed for implants... and then...there's Pacifica the almighty mythic bitch they're solid Teflon never bothered or harassed "i would give anything to be like that" she listened out and heard everyone's murmurs of what they wished of the heather's it was all a sea of dreams even candy said one wishing they were nicer it was sweet...except for uh that one guy but luckily the bell rang out and everyone disbanded
Mabel had quietly followed the heaters towards a bathroom when she noticed one of the teachers were there talking to them while heather A threw up... but hearing that they were about to get detention she had to think fast luckily her art skills helped her forgery as well "um actually miss melody, we're all out on a hall pass uhh year book comity" she looked skeptic but she trusts me and after a look over my note she let us off with a warning before leaving i turned back towards them and they were staring "who are you?" Pacifica asked looking over my forgery "uhhh Mabel... Pines, i have a favor to ask" she looked back up "what favor.." now's her chance "please let me sit with you at lunch just this once! if people think you tolerate me they might leave me be, a-and before you answer i also do report cards permission slips and absence notes"
they were laughing but heather A asked if i did prescriptions... "shut up heather! hmm you know for a greasy sweater clad nobody you do have good bone structure"
out of no where candy pops up with her input "and a symmetrical face if you took a meat cleaver down the center of her skull you'd have matching halves" she was holding my face and it looked like heather B was actually considering it squinting and nodding till pacific glared for candy to leave as she scrambled away "get me my equipment" ordered Pacifica as Mabel held her breath
outside students were scrambling about and fighting once again till someone called out "whose that with the heather's?" and there was a collective Woah as not only Pacifica, heather A and heather B walk down the hall but Mabel DAMN pines! strides along side them
.:you know life can be beautiful you hope you dream you pray and you get your way! ask me how it feels i look like hell on wheels and my god it's beautiful that i MIGHT BE beautiful, today is a freaking beautiful day!
