A NEW PAGE by P. RingonIts been two weeks, and I havent made any real friends. Its just that, I feel as if no mavin likes me. Sure, Ive talked to a few people, like Jessica and this real hot guy Chase, but Im starting to feel lonely again. I mean, I was captain of the cheerleading squad at my old school, and was one of the popular girls. Diary, I just dont get it. Well, whatever, Im way too tired to keep on writing so, allows just hope tomorrow will be at least a little different from the norm, that Im slowly get used to. Until next time.Carissa woke up the next morning and carelessly stumbled out of bed. She looked in the mirror and thought no wonder no ones really talked to me, I look like crap. Despite her morning thoughts, she and everyone else knew how gorgeous she actually was. With her hair done, face fresh, clean, made-up, and new clothes to show off, she headed out the gate and jumped into her car. She sped down to the nearest Starbucks, just like she did every morning . She finally got to school, still getting used to how different things looked compared to her old one. Carissa was still not used to her dadas line of work, withal though it was the fourth time his company had transferred him.Following the same routine she had been going through for the past two weeks, Carissa sit in the courtyard and read one of her favorite novels, The Joy Luck Club, and sipped on her brand-name cappuccino with extra whipped cream, hoping that someone would take interest in her and maybe even spark a new friendship. Carissa was reading water had turned a deep golden color, and then red, purple, when she was suddenly startled by someone who knocked everywhere her cappuccino.Without even looking to see who did it she blabbed out, Look You need to watch where youre going, Loser. Carissa looked up and suddenly felt her heart sink and her face turn as red as an apple. It was Chase, and before she could even begin to apologize, he jumped in saying, Oh, damn. Hey, um m, its Carissa, right? Im so sorry, I was totally zoned out. Here, I have a Starbucks ccino, too, and I didnt even do so much as breathe on it yet.
