I'm in the front seat of Mamma's car, the one she had just bought for her birthday this year! (with the help of dad.) I'm sitting in the front seat because of course I am mother's special angel. Usually Gavin or Chase would sit here, but mother is being extra sweet and temporarily letting me be the owner of this seat for once. This seat is great! But, this car ride to school is making me sick.

Because I'm already sick.

Because I don't want to have to face Kennie.

I haven't told my mom about all this nonsense drama at school, because she'd probably go on to tell me a whole lecture about her younger days, which always causes me to groan.

I hope Kennie is having fun without me, because today is the day that I am not going to let her bring me down. I have a lot of comebacks written down on every single notebook for every single class I take! I've got this!
