I pack my things in my book bag as lunch period's bell rings. I know that one thing that isn't going to change is me spending my lunch hour in the stalls of the bathroom. However, I'm kind of excited for doing so today. I have this idea for my character Patty that I want to put on paper as soon as possible. I pull out from my desk, stretching. I feel something knock into me from behind and I stumble forward, dropping my bag. The girl's from behind me walk past me, snickering as they will no doubt talk about what just happened for their entire period. I roll my eyes, bending down and grabbing my book bag once more. Just keep breathing Emily, nothing is going to ruin this day, remember? I shake my head as the teacher continues to pretend that she didn't see anything happen.
