Hey my name is Laura and I have a twin sister an older sister and a younger brother. My twin and I are fraternal and we are seniors in high school. I have two dogs. They are Shiba Inu's (a small Japanese husky type dog) and their names are Pookie and Sam. I also have a snake named Jake Felix. My twin Aaron has two hamsters named Petunia and Sally and a miniature poodle named Cricket. My little brother is in the 8th grade and has two lizards named Bob and Beth. My older sister in college, Ashley, has a Labrador puppy named Lucy. My parents both work. My dad was transferred from Philadelphia to North Shore so my sister and I go to North Shore High. I have dark brown hair with a reddish tint and green eyes. Aaron has light brown hair and brown eyes. Since we aren't identical we don't generally do the 'dress like your twin' thing. And now finally story time!
Today was my first day at my new school. My sister and I lived really close so we walked. "I wonder if people will like us" said Aaron.
"remember how people were in Philly?"
"ya"
"that but 10 times worse" I said.
"thanx for the encouragement sis" she said sarcastically.
"you want me to lie?"
She looked at me with a saddened face. I could tell she didn't want to go. I seemed excited and smiled lightly at her to make her feel better, but I didn't want to go anymore than she did.
As we walked to our new school we took our minds off of it and talked about, well… what we always talk about. And being ourselves, we could never keep on the same subject with the dreaded ADD.
We stopped across the street from the school and looked on the other side of the road. There it was, North Shore High School, "here we go" said Aaron.
We saw people in light jackets and jeans and slightly warmer clothes. We were in shorts and t-shirts because this was hot for us. We began walking across the street and "BOOM" the bus zipped right in front of us almost knocking us flat.
"holy freakin' crap!" we screamed together.
"wow" I said.
We ignored the bus and our racing hearts and kept walking across the street. We made it to the other side and the bell rang. We looked at our schedules and we had Spanish. Good! We can speak Spanish fluently so we were happy about that.
We got there and sat down.
"hola!" said the teacher.
"hola" repeated the class.
"Me llamo Senora Carlson" said the teacher. (my name is Mrs. Carlson)
She was young, not over 35. she smiled at the class and asked everyone's name.
'Translate: how do bears eat fish?'she wrote on the board.
After everyone translated a list of things on the board she passed out a test type thing to show how much Spanish you knew. Aaron and I finished first then we sat and read books in Spanish. The bell rang and we went to our next class Science, then Math, then lunch. We looked for a place to sit. No one seemed friendly.
"where the crap are we gonna sit!" said Aaron.
"I don't know"
"hey!" a guy walked up to us.
"hi" said Aaron and I uneasily. The boy had dark brown hair and light orangey skin.
"I am doing a lunch-time survey on new students. Can I ask you a couple questions for the school paper?"
"I guess" we said at the same time again.
"is your muff—" he was cut off by the girls behind us.
"Jason! Stop! You have done this two years in a row now. You are such a little skeeze!"
We turned around. There were four girls sitting behind us. 2 blondes, a brunette, and a red head.
"Regina, why do you have to do that, I'm just trying to be nice." said 'Jason'.
"shutup Jason" said 'Regina'.
The boy walked away.
The red head smiled, "hi I'm Cady" she seemed pretty nice.
"Gretchen" said the brunette.
"my name is Karen" said the other blonde.
"hey my name's Regina" said Regina "sit" she pointed at the two empty chairs.
