Short Story: The Perfect Teenage Girl

Great Essays
¨Elizabeth! You are going to be late for your first day of school!¨ Said the mother of our main character. The tale I am about to start begins in the morning of Elizabeth's first day of senior year. This tale is a tale that most teenage girls wish they would have happened to them. Our character is a seventeen year old girl who has nothing but one friend whose name is Lilly. These girls will be the main focus of our tale as the story of how ¨The Perfect Boyfriend¨ was created.

¨I'm coming mom!¨ Hi you may or may not know who I am, but for those who don't I am Elizabeth Cortez, hi. Today is the day that most of us teens all know as either doomsday or hallelujah day. Mainly because today is September 3, the day we know, our parents know, and the whole city of love garden knows as BACK TO SCHOOL!
In my case it's definitely without a doubt or question doomsday! You can only imagine why a nerdy teenage girl like me says otherwise. Most stereotypes people think that we smart outsiders throw study parties and are ecstatic about the day of back to school, but In all reality, I think I can speak for all my fellow outsiders that we dread this day. You ask why? Well ladies and gents take a seat

Which means we have most of the popularity in the school, ¨Elizabeth can we talk for a second?¨ ¨yeah sure after my after school activities¨ I said. At the moment I didn't realize the hurt I was doing to my best friend until she said ¨I don't even know you anymore¨ and she walked away with anger and tears in her eyes. As soon as I realized what I have done, I tried looking for her everywhere but couldn't seem to find Lily. A few hours went by and still no sign of Lily but Chad was acting crazy his moods were completely different, and he was just being rude in general almost like he didn't love me

    Laurie Halse Anderson uses simplified diction to give the reader a better understanding of Melinda's stream of conscious. Contrary to the title Speak, there is not a great deal of dialogue in the passage, let alone in the novel. Instead, Anderson uses this simplistic approach to give us insight to both the raw emotions of Melinda, as well as the events that take place. In the passage, Anderson uses this transparent writing style to convey the immediate struggle Melinda had in finding a group to fit in with in high school. Melinda's first interaction with the party scene of high school was clouded with peer pressure “Rachel found a way to fit in, of course.…

    There is a certain type of dedication that a 13 year old girl has for a band full of cute boys that she wants to marry. The excitement only builds when the concert is announced, and finalized when a white t-shirt is decorated with the last name of the cutest member written on the back like a jersey. April 11th 2014, the date circled in the Glee Calendar was fast approaching; in fact, the story starts the very afternoon before the concert. Churchill P.E class, the least athletic but surprisingly competitive place, causes the initial hiccup. Ultimate Frisbee does not seem like a deadly game; however, in this case it almost was.…

Being a princess has been most girl 's dreams as a child, but little do they think about the theme and the message the “Cinderella” story creates.

    Susan Minot’s story titled Lust is written in first-person perspective and it revolves around the adolescent life of a 15-year-old girl as she lives in boarding school. The narrator is the girl herself, unnamed and anonymous in terms of characterization; very accurately depicting someone with low self-esteem. The story opens right away with the character introducing the boys she’s met during her time at boarding school but goes no more into depth about them than mentioning the sexual experiences they have had, such as seeing one naked for the first time or French kissing another. The readers get little, if any, description of the male characters beyond their names.…

    The Life of a Teenager Lazy, irresponsible, and immature, that is how most people would say defines a common day teenager. What causes this stereotype? Not all people in their teenage years act completely recklessly. If a teenager was asked if they thought they were unproductive, forgetful, and premature, most would say no, especially those involved in school, sports, and whatever other activities. School, for students who put in effort, is stressful and tiring.…
