Chapter 4- Expectations raised.

Expectations raised

Despite all that I said about this school, as Rachelle said, its actually turning out to be great! The teachers are fair enough, and the activities and subjects are excellent!
 But now there’s a new problem. Nikki Cooper is tagging along with me ALL the TIME, which is soo annoying! :/ She asks me how I do my hair, how I get these grades, how I blah-blah-blah. SERIOUSLY?! I thought she was a sensible, quiet, kind and smart girl when I first heard her singing and all that stuff. But now she’s some fluffy haired, Nicole-sherman-crazy, very very annoying, maniac to me. And sometimes, she even scares me. I mean, she just sneaks onto me at night and asks me to please do her homework for her. Like, What? I REALLY want her to push off and leave me alone. 
Imagine if you could transfer your thoughts to someone else? That would be awesome! She would know how I feel(I wouldn’t have to say it face to face), and maybe she’ll keep her distance from me J. Of course, you can do that through texting and calling and stuff, but this is way cooler!!


‘Okay, erm…, Nikki, I have to say something to you.’ I said, feeling super-weird. ‘Yuh-huh. What? By the way, where DID you get those hairclips? You didn’t tell me yesterday. Oh yeah, and while you were out with Megan, Rachelle, Julie, Drake, Harriett and Dave yesterday during Break, Miss Colton said that she’s gonna conduct a very big math test that’s going to cost us half our grade. And its day after tomorrow.’ She said, more likely, shrieked. ‘WHAT?!! HALF our GRADE?!’ I exclaimed, totally shocked. ‘Uhh..yyeahh.’ She said. She was probably scared at my outburst. ‘Oh. Sorry. I was just surprised, that’s all.’ I said. We were going for Chemistry. ‘So. Did you hear? Sarah and Rachelle dunked a class today afternoon. They went to Sapphire and did whatever. I think they’re BFFs now.’ I raised my eyebrows. OK, its understandable. Rachelle dunking a class. But, with SARAH? And their BFFs? This is just too much information! And Nikki was just rambling on as if Rachelle and I didn’t know each other. I just ignored her. My new method.. Ignoration. If that’s a word. I have that math test to worry about, and now this. Just shove it off my plate, please. I don’t want it. So, anyways, when we got to Chemistry, I took my usual seat next to Megan. Rachelle was sitting with Sarah. Yeah. I know. Rachelle’s sitting with SARAH. When we talk to her about it, she just says, ‘Its not like we’re BFFs or anything! Chill, guys! We just SIT together…’, which gets me and Megan all worked up. I mean, Its like we’re LOSING her. Now all she does is go to the movies with Sarah and hang out with her in the dorm. 

WHAT do I DO?!

Daddy Long Legs by Jean Webster

Daddy-Long-Legs written by  Jean Webster Daddy-Long-Legs is a greatly amusing and beautiful book written by Jean Webster. We had an excerpt of the book as a chapter in our English textbook.  I extremely enjoyed learning that lesson, so I decided that I would try and read it! Fortunately, I found it one of the shelves in the library and soon, needless to say, I was stuck in the book. Daddy-Long-Legs is a book written in the form of letters. Letters from Jerusha  Abbott  to  her benefactor who had sent her to college. You see, ‘Judy’, as she likes to be called, is an orphan in the John Grier Home. She is eighteen years of age, and has never in her life seen the outside world. Judy longs and longs to go out, attend college, make actual friends, eat tasty food, get new dresses, lots of things.. She absolutely detests the John Grier Home as she thinks that they attempt to turn ‘98 orphans into 98 twins’.  But one day, the headmistress of John Grier Home calls her to her office.  Judy

Wonder                    by R.J Palacio Wonder is an extremely well-written book about a 10 year old boy called August Pullman. August, affectionately called 'Auggie' has 'small anomalies' on his face, which basically means that his face is deformed. He has learned to ignore the sniggers, stares  and horrified looks he gets when people see his face. Auggie has a very close relationship with his mother. He finds best friends in a nice and friendly boy called Jack, and a smart and pretty girl called Summer. They make a great team. This amazing book is about the situations and scenarios that August goes through everyday. Most people think that just because August is deformed, that he is dumb as well. But August is the complete opposite of dumb. He is extremely smart and even receives a high Honor Roll award from his school. The school bully(the popular guy), Julian , is shallow and inconsiderate. He thinks that he is the best and acts like that as well. He
