"Beep.. Beep.. Beep.."
She slowly rolls out of bed and silences her alarm, which sits on her stereo. She walks down the dark and narrow hallway to the place which she hates the most. She stands in front of the mirror and sees the image of a girl and quietly focuses on the things which she is going to change. She stands on the scale, and waits for the numbers to appear.. so she can decide on what is or isn't for lunch that day. She looks in the mirror and sees a girl that looks so helpless, as she reaches for the make-up case. She sees one word flashing back at her from the reflection.. unpretty.
She stands outside in the freezing cold, waiting to catch the morning bus to school. She wonders what people will say about the outfit she is wearing. She carefully walks towards the table which contains all of her friends. Out of nowhere she hears "Guess what, i lost 5 pounds" She thinks to herself about how she would look if she could loose 5 pounds, or 10.. if only she could be so lucky.
She sits through the first 4 periods of school.. without saying a word. She walks to the cafeteria and meets up with her gang of friends. She stands in the lunch line, like any normal teenager would. But her definition of lunch isn't like all the other boys and girls. She picks up a plastic bottle that contains the product H20 and gives the lunch lady $1.80.
She enjoys her psychology class, and wishes for it to be her major.
