Chapter 2:Day Dreamer

"Hey, Miranda," said Lizzie sitting down, "whats up?" Mirand slammed her pudding down sending droplets of chocolate in every direction. "What's up!? You want to know what's up! Okay, I'll tell you!" she began angrily, "I'm getting a C in math, I have a five page book report due on *War and Peace* on Monday, and I have a test in Science today that I didn't study for!" Lizzie wiped chocolate pudding off her face, "Miranda, it's only the second week of school. You shouldn't be stressing so much."

"Ya, and stress in our later adolesence can lead to seriouse health problems in our later years. Almost gauranteeing a heart attack in our early forty's," Gordo said flexing his brilliance. To Lizzies relief, he had decided to put down his camera.

"I know, but college is closer than ever. And I really, really want to get into a good school," Miranda explained as she mixed around the remaining contents of her pudding cup, "You know, maybe I should get a totour. My cousin had a totour and..." As Miranda went on and on, Lizzie's mind began to wander. *It's a nice day today. look at the way the sun reflects off Gordo's hair. (sigh) Awwww, look at him, he's bored. He's so cute when he's bored. Wait, did I just call Gordo cute? McGuire, you must be getting too much sun or something*

Lizzie turned her attention back to Miranda who was just wrapping up, "So what do you think, Lizzie?" Lizzie nodded her head, "Uhuh," she answered. Miranda frowned at her day dreaming friend, "Were you even listening to me?" Just then the bell rang.
