Ugh, again? God, I hated that music and in particular, that Usher. Or was it Kanye West again? Good grief, I was so out of loop over what was popular and what wasn't anymore.
I'm Ellie West - an eighteen year old high school senior. I was an odd woman, at least according to my sister; unlike most of my peers, who were gossiping and planning for the prom (which was about two weeks away) I was studying for our finals.
My sister and I don't get along very much. Karen, the twenty-one year old cheerleader, attends the nearby college and leads the cheerleader squad everyday. It must be troubling for her, to see her younger sister indulging herself in her studies but hey, I didn't want to be like her.
It wasn't that I didn't have the body - the few guys who have approached me before complimented me of my physique (though most pretty much drooled all over me). I just didn't want to be like her and I definitely didn't want to hang around those apes that Karen called her friends. I wanted to get crazy high SAT scores, go to an ivy league school and become a CEO of some fortune 500 company. Someday, anyway.
I was a bit annoyed of the fact that my sister was taking advantage of the fact that our parents were away for the weekend. I was mostly annoyed from the fact that I was practically caged in here, going over my notes over and over again. It was my house too damn it - so why did I have to stay in here like some sort of animal?
I figured that I should venture outside, at least for a glass of water. I suppose that I wanted to prove to myself that I didn't need my sister's permission to go to her stupid party; even if it was for just a second. With great caution (as if I was afraid of being caught) I opened my door and headed downstairs. So far so good, I guess.
