I pull into the school parking lot. I can already feel the stares on the back of my head. This is going to be a long day.

SETH
By the time that lunch rolls around my day is gone. I feel like my days are just getting easier and easier the more that i get into my rutine. Its already 2 weeks into school when i feel like yesterday we just started. My week goes so fast from school to work to church to prayer meetings. The guys at first were really dragging me down when i first commited my life to God. But little by little they could see the positive change in me and everyone just excepted that it was apart of me now. I know that i am lucky that i have it so easy and i am greatful for that.
"Hey! seth! Dude what are you doing later? Thomas is having a pick up game of b-ball at his house at 4, you coming?" Matt says. Matt is the coolest guy in the school.I grew up with the kid and he never stops amazing me.
"Uh yeah ill be there, you said 4 right?" I actually have work today but the guys hardly get together anymore, i cant pass up this opportunity and my manager wont mind. Matt and i walk down to the caffateria for lunch. We have a whole table commited to our group of friends. Every single seat is used, none to be spared. Sometimes i feel like us guys can gosip just as much as girls are known for. Just with the guys at my table it is about hot girls, how long it has been since they got laid, and sports.
"Seth? Seth, dude, your spacing out man" Oh i am spacing out, so bad i dont even know who said that.
"Oh, um, sorry, what were we talking about?" I say to them while they stare at me like im crazy for not hearing what they are saying about their new victom for torturing this year.
"Dude, that girl over there, Lucy. I heard she was admitted to a mental hospital over the summer. She just showed up today. I think she is in my english class. Dude, she isnt even hot." says derik. Thats all that he really cares about, hotness of girls and how long it will take for him to get with her. I sneek a peek over at the girl Lucy.
