Chapter 1: Los Angeles
I was saying my last goodbyes to my friends, when I suddenly heard my Dad call my name, probably telling me that it was time to leave. I never wanted to leave New York, with the oh-so big buildings, you could get lost. California seemed like my own personal hell. Los Angeles sounded worse.
"Hey, Ashley, mail some shells and pictures over, will you?" Said Samantha, my best friend since 3rd grade.
"Sure," I said, I know I wouldn't forget.
I stalked of to the warm car; I almost forgot it was fall until Dad reminded me about putting on my jacket. It felt like weeks before we reached California. Why couldn't we have just taken the stupid plane and fly over to stupid California? I thought. I could tell we reached California, because I saw the palm trees. I figured the palm trees would go on the 'Good things about California' list. Dad handed me something red.
"I figured if we move to someplace where you don't like it, we ought to just give you a new cell phone," Dad said, handing me my new cell, "My treat." It looked like a blackberry. The one I was telling Dad about. I got a lot of attention ever since Dad said we were moving.
Good Things l Bad Things
Palm Trees l No friends
Mall l Moving
Beaches l New School
I looked over my list again, it was a dead tie, and I couldn't think of any other bad things. Now it was down to the only thing I had to go through….my new school.
