I don't sleep, well it's hardly surprising is it? My first night sharing with strange girls and I mean strange, some snoring or talking in their sleep. One who got up about ten times in the night to go to the toilet or wherever she disappeared to.
someones's alarm goes off and everyone immediately jumps out of bed to get dressed. This is a shock to me. I'm so used to lying in bed for about 15 minutes after my alarm has gone off then having my mum bring me a cup of coffee in. Looks like I will have to stand on my own two feet now.
i drag myself out of bed and find the uniform I'm expected to wear whilst I am here. I find my blouse and skirt but can't find the tie. I spot a tie on the floor, I know it's not mine but I put it on anyway. One of the bookworm girls is looking round 'anyone see my tie' she asks, everyone just ignores her including me. well, I'm hardly like to admit it and to be honest I don't think she will get into trouble for not wearing it unlike me.
i follow everyone down the corridor and to the same room I went running from last night. This time I make sure I'm looking at the floor so I don't get tripped up, I don't want to make that mistake. Now I have made it this far I'm not actually sure where to sit. I see my 'new friends' looking at me then call me over. 'Annabel over here, do you want to know what your challenge is yet, well more like challenges ' then they are start sniggering. I nod my head for them to tell me.
'well the first challenge is to set the fire alarm off, that's quite easy, well it would be if it is the one in the corridor, but you are going to set the alarm off in here, in about ten minutes when you have had your breakfast. Your second challenge is to kidnap matron's dog, no one has ever managed to do that yet but we think you probably could, so are you in or are you out?'
ok I wasn't expecting to kidnap a dog, the fire alarm will probably be easy, you just lean on it right? I look to see where it is and it right above where the teachers are. Ok maybe not so easy. 'Er can I think about it', 'no, tell us now are you going to do it or not'. That was more like a threat and I think I'm going to have to agree, 'yeah im in' I say.
i finish my breakfast not feeling very hungry now, I'm looking round the room, hoping that others will finish their breakfast and go, the less people around the better. However, the teachers aren't moving.
i get up and walk to the fire alarm, ok this looks really obvious, the fact that I am actually standing near them and the fact that I am leaning on the wall to hold it up. The alarm is just above my head and there is a teacher opposite me, all the chavs sorry my new friends are watching me as I lift my arm up as if to scratch my head, I'm feeling round for the alarm when one of the chavs comes over to distract the teacher that is looking straight at me. I'm not going to get away with it it's impossible but a dare is a dare and I smack the alarm as hard as I can. I don't move as I don't want anyone to know it is me that has set it off, even though I can feel liquid dripping down my arm from the smashed glass, I look at it and I feel really dizzy, then I faint ...
