I don 't know what 's worst about being the a red head; the fact that every thinks you 're low tempered and soulless, or the fact that you 're easiest to spot. It was the last week of summer when I spoke to him again. That would 've been the first time in two years. You would think talking to someone who you haven 't talked to in such a long time would be a special and heart-warming, but no, no- seeing Grayson was the opposite. Who would 've thought that my best friend, the one who used to treat me like his princess, would 've turned out to be a complete asstard. Now mind you, I wasn 't expecting a whole dance and cheer with a sign saying, "long time no see, Cam!" but I also wasn 't expecting to be humiliated in front of a bunch of my peers. …show more content…

My hair was in it 's usual mane of curls since Jennifer was too lazy to deal with it, my nails were painted black and my eyes were decorated with eyeliner, mascara, and a light blue eye shadow. My outfit was pretty simple. I had chosen to wear a dark blue halter top with my favorite pair of ripped black skinny jeans, and my black converse. When we finished getting dressed, I wrote a note to my mother, telling her I was going to be out, and got into Jenn 's car. The drive to my other best friend, Dylan 's house wasnt that long.

We pulled up to his house and beeped, signaling to him that we were ready to go. Within thirty seconds, Dylan came running (and nearly falling) down his porch steps, and slid into Jennifer 's car.

Every now and then, I 'd catch Jenn staring at him through her rear-view mirror, but like I mentioned earlier, Dylan 's pretty oblivious so obviously he didn 't catch her. I 've always notice the slight mood changes that occur as soon as Dylan accompanies Jenn and I. With me, her behavior 's more eccentric and happy. When Dylan 's around, she changes her whole demeanor to this tough girl who couldn 't give two shits about anything. Don 't get me wrong, she still her happy, bubbly self, but not as much. It 's as if a wall has been

As Zora stated, “I remember the very day that I became colored” (30). I, too, recall the day I realized that I was white and that it meant something more than just a Crayola color. No longer was white just a color; it was the race I belonged to with its own rules and regulations.

    Ow. My head hurts. It has been lying against this wall for at least an hour now. I scratched the back of my head to move around my dark, curly hair. It was beginning to feel plastered against my scalp. It was a bit tangled from not brushing it for a day and my fingers did not run through it with ease; nevertheless, it felt good to keep the blood flowing. I was lying on a thin, light blue mat on the floor. My head was propped up against the cold wall as if it were a concrete pillow. My chin dug into my chest and I could feel the soft, warm material from my sleeveless sweater cushioning my jaw. I looked down. I could see the ends of my hair cascading over my shoulders. The red highlights matched quite nicely with my maroon sweater. My arms were folded over my belly and they appeared more pale than usual. My knees were bent, shooting upward like two cliffs. My baggy blue jeans covered the backs of my fake brown leather shoes. ("Christy, let me borrow your pants, the baggy ones with the big pockets. I can hide more stuff in those.")
