Michaela, has it too.
What about you?”
    “I’ve got some friends in here too. Although I don’t
know how easy it’ll be to find them.” He looked around the mayhem
in the cafeteria. Hundreds of students wandered around aimlessly,
looking for their friends. The smart ones headed straight for the
lunch lines, deciding food was more important. Paivi saw Michaela
out of the corner of her eye. She was standing on her seat in the
far corner of the cafeteria, waving her arms wildly in the air in
order to get Paivi’s attention. A lunch monitor ran up and began
scolding her to get down.
    Paivi laughed and pointed to Michaela. “I am sad to
say I found my friend. I better get over there before she gets
herself thrown out! See you tomorrow!”
    “Later!” Jason headed off in the other
direction.
    Paivi made her way through the maze of tables where
Michaela and Aimee had saved her a seat. Michaela was promising the
lunch monitor that she would never misuse school property again in
such a fashion. She sat back down out of breath.
    “Getting in trouble already? It’s only the first
day!” laughed Paivi.
    “Just be glad you didn’t have to wander around like
some idiot to find us in this mess!” She sounded mad, but Paivi
knew better. Michaela suddenly brightened. “And who, may I ask, was
the cute guy you were with?”
    “I wasn’t WITH a guy — he’s just some guy from my
Current Events class.”
    “What’s his deal? Does he have a girlfriend or what?
What grade is he in?” Michaela demanded.
    “I just met him today. I’m sorry I didn’t manage to
get his life story. But I’ll keep you posted. Better yet, I can
introduce you and you can interrogate him yourself,” Paivi giggled.
She scanned the room, looking to see where Jason was sitting. She
hoped the others didn’t notice. No luck. She leaned back in her
seat, contemplating whether she should attempt the lunch line, when
she saw him. Unfortunately it was not Jason — instead it was the
boy she had seen earlier that morning. And he was sitting just four
tables away. She couldn’t help but look. He wasn’t so creepy when
he wasn’t staring her down. He must have felt her eyes, however,
and turned his head slowly, his eyes meeting hers. They were as
cold and icy as before and she could feel the hair on the back of
her neck stand up. She pulled her eyes away quickly, looking
towards Michaela, hoping he would look away too. But he did
not.
    This is ridiculous! she thought to herself. How can
I be afraid of someone I don’t even know? This is stupid.
    She stood up, still avoiding his gaze. “Are you guys
ready to get some food?”
    The three girls headed to the front of the cafeteria
and joined the line.

    For my assignment I read an article in the
St. Andrew Herald
by Jerome Knowles.
It was called “Moira Kelly takes the lead in the polls.” He states
that Kelly, a member of the Liberal party, is ahead in the polls
because Americans think she’s personable. That means she nice. He
also says that her policies on the Righteous Front terrorist group
are helping her. She hopes to solve the terrorist crisis by sitting
down and talking to the members of the Righteous Front. The current
administration has been fighting the RF with the military, but the
RF keeps blowing up more restaurants and shopping malls. According
to Knowles, Senator Stevens represents the same ideas as the
current President who is also from the Conservative party and will
not have much of a chance with the voters. I personally think it’s
because he’s not very nice, but that’s just because he looks like a
jerk when I see him on the news.

    The full moon shone over the water creating a silver
path on the waves that disappeared into the horizon, a road
straight to the heavens. A yacht cut directly across the light and
then in a moment, it was gone, returning to the shadows.
