A-N-N-O-Y-E-D - by Albert

“Beyond the steep mountains and across the greatest ocean.” Through the bleak woods and over the perilous valleys, there lay a small kingdom known as the Kingdom of Guilderland. In that kingdom lived a very lovely princess named……. “Fiona!!” Time to go to school!! Mom screamed while ruining my dream. “Mom!” You’re ruining my dream! Urgh! I had the most annoying mom in the world. Let me introduce. My name is Fiona and I had a very strange life, not like any other girls. I moved up very often, well since my parents were so obsessed in traveling. This is the 8th time I moved and my mom promised that we would never move again. But trust me, we’ll move again in about a year. Well, here I am stranded in the edge of Miami with my insane parents, a dog, two cats, two birds and a turtle. Today I’m starting a new day at a new house and a new school……
“Fiona! you’re going to be late!” Screamed mom.
“Mom, you’re just being to noisy and you just ruined my lovely dream.”
“Duh! It’s like 5 minutes till 7.”
“What! Oh my, I’m definitely late!!Gotta run!”
“Don’t you want some toast and juice?”
“Mom!! I’m serious! Its like the first day of school and I shouldn’t be late for sure.”
“Or maybe some milk?”
“Mom!! I’m just trying to pack my bags and go to school! Will you shut your mouth?”
“Oh! Do you want some pasta?”
“Mom!!! You’re very annoying! Gotta go! Bye!”
See! I’ve got an insane mom and a father which I barely meet. Dad says that he works all day long just for my school fee. Not until I saw him in the bar with some girls after not coming home for 2 weeks. He did not even make a single phone call and that’s when I started hating him and refuses to see him anymore. I’m currently at 9th grade and I’m so miserable that I have to go on a brand new school. Worst of all, this time I was so unfortunate that I went to a very bad school. I can tell it by just looking from its dull and old building. I past by the dirty-looking gate and I found that no one was there! I knew I was very late. I pushed the old wooden door and a cold breeze blew of my face. There was the main hall. Old and crooked with its ceiling almost filled with rust and holes. I was so damn shocked when I knew I went on a very ugly school. But where’s everyone? It was so silent that I can hear my own heart beating. Then suddenly someone touched me from the back. “ AAAAHHHH!!” I screamed so hysterically until one of the door handles fell down. “School starts at 9:30 young lady!” The old janitor says with a funny looking face.
I was so mad with my mom since she did not tell me that school starts at 9:30. When I got home, I pulled her and shouted.”School starts at 9:30!”
“So? What’s the matter?”
“I was running all the way to school, exhausted like this and you say so?”
“I didn’t know about that. Well it’s your fault! I’m not the one who’s going to school.”
“Uurgh!! You’re such an annoying mom!”
“Oh ! By the way, have you tasted the pie I made yesterday ?”
“Can you just stop talking for one day? Cause you’re just being like a radio! Never stops talking!”
I was very angry that I tried to run through the stairs and I tripped.”Auch!! “That hurts! Who would have designed such an ugly stair!!
“Well you’re just too clumsy and too hyperactive!”
“Mom !! Can you just please be quiet?!”
“Fiona! Do you want to watch some TV?”
“Mom!! Whatever.”
I started to head up to my room and I slammed the door when I entered. Why do I have such an annoying mom? She never understands me! I’m so exhausted and jumped onto my bed .CRACK!! A huge sound came from under my bed. UH! Why did she always buy useless things? Then I started to fall asleep and dreamed about a lovely prince who fell in love with me. Not until I heard the voice of mom laughing so hilariously and woke up. I looked upon the clock. Its 9:30AM……….AAAAAHHHHH!!! I shouted.
I was very late this time and it was real. I ran downstairs and tripped at the door. But I kept running to the school and by the time I got there, I took out my schedule and it showed 9:30-10:45= English. Room E56b.I shouted,”where the heck is room E56b??!!”
The hall was again silent when I reached it. From the edge of the hall, I heard noises and approached it. It said in the front door. Grade 9 English.Mr.Johnson.p-Room E56b.Just in time!! But a lady from the other edge of the hall shouted. “Hey you!! You’re very late! Come here! I’ll give you a detention!” She shouted. “I’m not late!! I was just going…err…I mean...Whatever!!” Bye. I slipped when I opened the door and fell down with all my things scattered all over the floor. “Everyone, here comes the clown!” shouted Mr. Johnson. “Are you Fiona?”
“Yes ,its me.”I replied
“Do you have any idea what time it is?”
“Emm..it’s…9:50?”I replied with a pity voice.
“You’re extremely late!”
“But I’m only late for like 20 minutes! It’s not extremely late!”
“Young lady, school starts at 6AM!” The whole class laughed while staring at me as if I’m a weird clown or something. The rest of the period I spent feeling dumb and stupid.
Mr. Johnson was quite a strange man. He has a long beard and a funny-looking nose. Well he was not that nice anyway, besides I think he’s the meanest and dumbest teacher I’ve ever met. He even asked me how to spell “apple” and when I answered it, he says that apple should be spelled apele. When I said no, he threw a marker to me, saying “You’re a very dumb girl who even can’t spell apple!” He’s just as annoying as my mom.
The classmates were not either kind or nice. No one even tried to speak to me or even ask for my name. They just stare at me as if I was a weird clown, except for one girl. She sat next to me and often smiled nicely to me. Then she whispered. “Everyone looks at you since you’re dumb, and I think that you are even worse than my dog! He’s way smarter than you anyway!!” She whispered with an unpleasant voice, similar to an old witch.
I was so surprised that I slapped her accidentally. She screamed “Mr. Johnson!! She said you’re a dumb and brainless teacher!!” Mr. Johnson stared at me and said “If I’m dumb then you’re dumber and if I’m brainless then you have no brain! What an awful young lady!” The whole class was laughing at me. I was again so annoyed that I threw a pencil to him. He approached me grabbed and pulled me. He dragged me towards the end of the hall saying”Ms Fiona, you were getting a detention for your awful, disrespectful, dumb attitude!!
He pulled me into one of the room in the other corner of the hall. It says in the door, Principal’s Office-Mrs. Brown – room A12E. “I’m not going inside!!” I shouted. “No you will and you must!!” he pulled me towards the door but I offended by biting his hand and pulling back. I think he was so mad that he grabbed both of my hands and pushed me towards the door. I tripped and fall down. In front of me was an old lady sitting on a sofa, drinking some coffee. “What on earth will enter a room like that!” she said cruelly
She come towards me and said “You’ll get a detention after school with me!”
She was such an annoying woman, giving a detention for just entering the room improperly.
The bell rang and I went out of the room. Everyone was just like an alien. Wearing those weird and freaky clothes, walking just like idiot peoples. It was lunch time and I headed up to the canteen. It was so damn overcrowded. Everyone was pushing around, throwing foods and jumping on the benches. I said to the cook “ Can I have one pasta please?” Then she replied. “No and definitely no!”
“ Why not?”
“The pasta is only for good-looking woman and not for dumb-looking girl like you!”
“Well that’s silly!” You’re just acting to weir….Ouch!! She threw a sandwich onto my face. “Go and eat that sandwich dumb girl!” I was so annoyed that I threw the sandwich back to her. Then she threw me a tomato. I grabbed a handful of spinach and threw it to her. She then threw to me a bowl of tomato sauce. We started to have food fight and suddenly, Mrs. .Brown touched my back. “Ms. Fiona, if you kept acting like this, I will giv…….Ouch!! I threw a sandwich to her face accidentally. “How dare you!”Eat this! She threw another sandwich to me. Then suddenly everyone started to have food fight. The canteen was in a whole mess. I sneaked out of the canteen, ran towards the door and went out of the school. The whole school was just so annoying.
I open the door of my house and shouted “Mom!! Where are you?”
“What’s wrong honey?You smelled funny!!”
“What kind of school is it that you sent me to?!”
“The Princeton high school my dear.”
“It’s such a disaster!” Everyone’s all crazy, dumb and weird!
“You’ll survive!”
“No I cant!! Its such a low-quality school with all those crazy teachers!!”
“Do you want to go the gym?”
“No I don’t want!! Mom, can you just listen to me?!”
“Why don’t you go to the market and buy some carrots?”
“Mom! Why do you kept on ignoring me as if I’m a wall or something?”
“No I don’t! Well it may take a lot of time for you to adapt with that new school.”
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. “Mom! You open it.”
“No you go there and open the door”
“Mom!” You’re too annoying. I opened the door and there was Mrs. Brown, wearing a bluish skirt and a red shirt. She was holding a book and a pencil. “Good afternoon Ms.Fiona!”
“What are you doing here?” I asked .
“Can I see your parents? I was going to report to them what you just did at school.”
“Well, mom’s not home.” I was a perfect plan to lie, not until…..”Fiona!’ Who’s that?” said my mother.”Good afternoon ma’am.” I’m the principal of Princeton High School.
“ Yes? So?” What about it. Mrs. Brown pushed through my mom and entered the house.
“ I will read the school rules of Princeton High School!!” First. To be late for more than 2 hours refers to an automatic detention and your daughter had been ignoring that rule.
“ But it’s like my first day of school!” I offended.
“Second! “ Ms. Fiona had been very disrespectful by throwing a sandwich to me.And that, according to the school rule , refers to another automatic detention! “ But , it was an accident!’’ I tried to explain. But she kept on ignoring me. “Well ,going out of the school during school time is a definite DETENTION!” So unfortunately, more than two detentions in one day means EXPELLED!!! My mom dropped her mouth when she heard that. She looked at me and said. “Fiona! You’re dead!!” I knew that she was very infuriated by just looking into her face . Mrs. Brown was just smiling and seems very annoying, so did my mom. I was just about to run when something hit me on the face and I woke up.
I realized that I was dreaming in the plane to Miami. I found mom sitting next to me and dad in front of me. “ Wake up fiona!” Said mom. “ What time is it?” I Asked.
“ You’ve been sleeping for four hours !”
“Why are you waking me up!”
“ What on earth has happened to you?” You asked me to wake you up in 4 hours!
“OH! By the way, what school will I go to?”
“Do you want some juice?”
“Mom, what’s the name of the school that I will go to!!”
“Or maybe some coke?”
“Mom! What is the name of the school!!” You’re just too annoying.
“Well, well..”
“What is it!!”
“ Well, it’s P-R-I-N-C-E-T-O-N H-I-G-H S-C-H-O-O-L!!”
“Oh no!!” I’m dead……………..
