    The sun shines brightly through the window. My bed feels nice and cozy, and out of nowhere-- RING-RING-RING-RING-RING “WHA- WHAT, HAPPENED- WHERE AM I?!” I fell out of my bed and stood up. “Oh- It’s just my alarm.” I said with relief. Hey there, the name’s Vall, my friends call me Tag. And the reason is… I have no idea, a few days after they met me, they started calling me Tag. Yes. Tag. Well, today I’ll tell you how my life became a living nightmare…. “Come down dear! Aren’t you exited for today’s school field trip?” said my mom. “I’m coming ma!” I yelled politely. Quickly trying to change clothes, brush my teeth, and shower. “Soo, what’s for breakfast?” I asked my mom as I walked down the stairs. “Now you’re going to be late for school, you should eat while riding the bus, eat fast!” said my mom. As I run towards the door, I snatch the sandwich form my mom and head to the door, I stop and tell myself… I’m forgetting something… Aha! I run back to my mom and hug her goodbye. “Love you! See you in 8 weeks!” I said with a smile. I run out the door waving at the bus and I get in. I arrive at school and just as I was about to walk up the second set of stairs, I hear someone screaming out my name— “What in the-- AHH-“ I drop down as I get tackled by my friend. “DUDE! I miss ya so much!” said my friend Cal. “We met yesterday at school- Get off me Cal!” I said. “Get off her Cal.” said my friend Lizzie. “Thank you, now can we get to school ONCE without you tackling me?” I said. “No” said Cal with a big grin. “Wonderful.” I said. “C’mon we’re gonna be late.” said Lizzie. We walk into the school, and as we get closer to the group of people who gathered near the school trip busses, someone yells out, “WEIRDOS!” said our bullies. “What a wonderful day… totally…” I said a little pissed. They walk closer to me and my friends laughing and trying to annoy me with names. “Well, well, well… isn’t it our favorite weirdos, eh?” they said as they shove us around.
