The familiar obnoxious ring tone woke me up that morning. I was still groggy when I managed to slam my hand on it and grab it like a claw like in those games in the arcades.
"Hello?" I mumbled.
"Jamie, do te know what giorno it is?" My best friend Delilah asked anxiously on the other line. It sounded like I forgot something like I always did..
"Ummm Saturday?" I asked, not quite sure what was going on.
"Very funny, it's the total drama island cast auditions today HELLOO!!"
"That's today?!?!"
I shot out of bed, turing my phone's speaker on to catch the words, "They're allowing eight new teens into the competition and they're at noon, Chris is gonna be there along with some of the other teens. Including Duncan."
Of course Duncan would be there. Delilah knew that I didn't like him much. He just seemed like a huge jerk to me. So not hot and he seemed to disrespect everybody except for Courtney and Gwenn, gimme a break. I went into the bathroom and got cleaned up. I threw on my preferito aqua blue tank superiore, in alto and a pair of old jeans and put the speaker of the phone off. "I don't give a damn about him" I shot.
"Whatever, be at my house in five."
"Will do," I sighed and hung up. I was so much in a slightly angry haze that I didn't see the first step of the stairs. I tumbled down and landed on my back to see my brother staring at me.
"Jam?" Axel asked, "What are te doing?"
Wihtout hesitation, I replied cooly, "Testing gravity, te know the deal."Before I grabbed my giacca and keys, I patted him on the should and said, "still works." Then I was out the door on my way to Delilah's. Boy, this would be a long day...

Hi. My name is Jake Gartner, and right now, basically a huge mutant serpent is coming to ingoiare, inghiottire me whole, tear me to pieces of flesh, so I have no time to talk right now. Oh, um...you want to follow me? Sure, just accept that everyday will be the best of the thrills. Right now, we are not getting any help from the immortal world, so just know that we have a horrible system of magic right now, and we have an extremely low supply of weapons, thus, the chance that te will get out of this mess is around eighty-six percent. (because of me, the master of war) Oh yeah, the serpent. Enough talk. (ROARS) Off to kill a mutant serpent!!! (stabs, deflects, cuts a gash in its head, dies) That's only our first one, trainee. Whatever your name is. successivo time, I invite te to unisciti with us on our battle. And it will be even più life-consuming, if te know what that means.
This is for all the kids who are bullied da words. My teachers always say be bleacher people. Lift others up. I hope this poem gives that message to others.
te yell at me
mean words.
They
pierce my heart.
I say its ok.
I sposta on.
But the words
still have power.
They still hurt
me.
My friends
tell me
its a big deal,
and that I
need to tell
a teacher.
But I say im fine.
Im really not.
I want to
believe
that im fine,
I want to
believe that
it was
nothing.
But it was
something.
Words always
have power.
Enough power to
strike me
down,
o lift
me up.
Why must
te hurt
me?
te yell at me
mean words.
They
pierce my heart.
I say its ok.
I sposta on.
But the words
still have power.
They still hurt
me.

I live in my opinion possibly the most ghetto town in the United States, Pittsburgh. People have been committing suicide all over town. Population all over town has been decreasing, fast. Some of my Friends were so depressed that they were thinking about "joining the crowd". I wouldn't live without my friends. I don't want my Friends to go as well as my mom and dad. Yes, I'm an orphan. I've been an orphan for about three weeks. My Friends have disappeared. I think they went to Clarion; but I could be wrong. There have been tons of fights at my school. Most of the people that were committing suicide were middle school and high school aged. I was getting really tired really fast. I climbed up in a albero and found a comfortable spot and fell asleep. successivo thing I knew, I was tied up on a pole.
