Y/n's POV:
I was waiting for my friend Ariana and to let the time pass by, I started writing in my diary.

September 1,1989
Dear Diary,
I believe I'm a good person. Ya know, I think there's good in everyone. But here we are, first day of Senior year!  And, uh I look at the kids that I've known all my life and I ask myself what happened?

While walking the halls, I can hear some kids (AKA Jose-Laurens/Philip, Chris-Lafayette/Jefferson.Jordan-Laurens/Philip, Anthony L.-Laurens/Philip, Mandy-Angelica,Lexi-Eliza) calling either me or some other kids names.

"Freak, s**t(I don't feel like saying the word), burnout,bug eyes,poser,lard ass!

I begin to write again.

We were so tiny, happy and shiny, playing tag and getting chased.

I chuckle a bit at the memory. I remember when I was chasing Ariana in a game of tag.

"Freak! S**t, loser, short bus! "

Singing and clapping, laughing and napping, baking cookies, eating paste.

"Bull dike, stuck up, hunchback! "

Then we got bigger, that was the trigger, like the Huns invading Rome.

While walking up to the lunch line, I bump into Andrew (Mulligan/Madison/Jefferson/Lafayette/Laurens/Philip) "Hooah. " "Ugh, sorry"

Welcome to my school, this ain't no high school, this is the Thunder dome. Hold your breath and count the days, we're graduating soon.

"White trash! "

College will be paradise if I'm not dead by June. But I know, I know, life can be beautiful. I pray, I pray, I pray, for a better way. We've been kind before, we can be kind once more, we can be beautiful.

I see Jonathon (Obviously King George III) trip and I try to help him up.

Just not today.

"Hey are you okay? ". "Get away nerd! "  "Oh. Okay"

"Freak, s**t, cripple, H**o, h**o, h**o! "

Things will get better as soon as my letters come from Harvard, Duke, or Brown. Away from this coma, take my diploma, then I can blow this town. Dream of ivy covered walls and smoky French cafés. Fight the urge to strike a match and set this dump ablaze.

I see one of the linebackers, Lin, come up to me and smack my lunch tray out of my hand.

Ooooops.

I feel like time pauses and I say, "Lin Manuel-Miranda, 3rd year as linebacker and 8th year of smacking lunch trays and being a huge dick. "Time unpauses and he comes up to me, "What did you say to me sk**k? " I back up a bit, "Aah, nothing. "

But I know, I know, I know, life can be beautiful. I pray, I pray,  I pray, for a better way. We were kind before, we can be kind once more, we can be beautiful.

I see Ariana. "Hey Ari, "I say. "Hey. "Time pauses again and I say, "Ariana DeBose, my best friend since diapers. " I feel like time unpauses again. "So we on for movie night, " she asks. "YEAH! You're on Jiffy pop detail, "I say. "I rented the 'Princess Bride', " she says. "Ho, ho, ho, again? Don't you have that memorized by now? " "What can I say? I'm a sucker for happy endings, " she says. "ARIANA DEBUZZKILL(lol. Sorry for the cringe. This all I could think of)!! HAHA!" I hear a voice yell out. I recognize that voice from anywhere. I see a guy with curly hair and freckles run up to Ariana, Lin, and I. I feel like time pauses (again ugh). "Anthony Ramos, quarteback. He is the smartest guy on the football team. Which is kinda like being the tallest dwarf....hey give that back right now! "He gives me a stupid look. "Are you actually talking to me? "Lin walks over to him. "My buddy Anthony over here just asked you a question, " he said. "Yeah. You're a high school has been waiting to happen. A future gas attendant." Before he could say anything else, the doors open and three girls, one in yellow, one in blue, and one in pink, enter. I start to write while talking to Ariana

And then there are the "Schuylers",they float above all of this mess. Jasmine Cephas Jones, head cheerleader, her dad is LOADED! He sells engagement rings. Phillipa Soo, runs the yearbook committee, no discernible personality but her mom dis pay for implants. And Renée Goldsberry, the almighty. She is a mythic bitch.

That earns a laugh from Ariana.

They're solid Teflon, never bothered, never.....harassed. I'd give anything to be like that.

Timeskip brought to you be JOHNLAURENSISMINEEE and her awesome book.

I'm walking down the hallway and I hear puking and Mr. Lacimore talking to Jasmine, Renée, and Phillipa. I can hear him talking about a detention. I quickly scribble down something. "Actually, we're all with a hall pass, yearbook committee. He looks down at it. "

I will continue this tomorrow. See ya
