Trouble at the Mill

For years the uncontested bitch, I mean Queen, around Landhale has been Michaela.  Well, she now has a claimant to her crown.  Little Miss-Goody-Two-Shoes (AKA Alexandra) is currently engaging battle and is gathering an army.  We all saw the other week the Nerds and the Its having a stand off in the libary.  Today, it heated up again to a boiling point. 


Across the river from school has fast become the idealic picnic spot by the Old Silk Mill. The lazy Derwent acts as a microcosm for how we feel whilst the birds sing and the illusion of freedom from school glitters all around us.  So when the sun's rays come to visit in September when it should be hiding behind blankets of clouds, we all took advantage of the opportunty of escape.  The Nerds and the Its were relaxing, seperated by a wall of Year 13's, until the projectiles began to fly through the air.


It is not known who started the food fight first, but it is suspected that it was Michaela in a spurt of immature hatred.  What I do now is that we are supposed to be budding adults and we should begin to act like them.  Saying that, at the end of the day we are still teenagers and who knows when we'll next get to throw banana skins at Michaela again?  The food fight was not exclusive to just the Nerds and the Its, even if it started that way, and even included some of the Year 13's, who enjoy believing in their own superiority. 


Some of us even swear we saw the air between Michaela and Alexandra melt a little bit.  What is going on here?

Yours,
