sleeping freshmen never lie
Lee By: Jaclyn Beeter
Character Traits
Original- "It was only the beginning of October, but when the new girl walked into home room, I thought she was made up for Halloween. She'd chopped her hair short and died it green. I guess she did it herself. I can't imagine paying anyone for a haircut like that. And she'd stuck pins in her face. Not just earrings or nose rings, though she had plenty of those. She also had studs and barbells and other stuff I don't even know the names of. There was a safety pin jammed through her left eyebrow, and another under her lip. It was kind of freaky."
Brave- "Lee had taken one of the smaller posters and stuck it on my locker. Underneath, she wrote Let's go... When I saw her on the way out of home room, I said, "Good one." "Good what?" "Your joke about the dance." There was just the slightest flicker across her face, like she'd almost burned her fingertips."
Passive- ¨While i was trying to think of something to say, or some way to avoid saying anything, she tucked the book under her arm and headed down the hall... Later that afternoon, between sixth and seventh period, she glanced toward the me as we passed in the hall.¨
Awkward- ¨Happy New Year... Hey, spaceboy, you there? What's the matter? Vampire got your tongue?¨ ¨Lee?¨ ¨Yup.¨
