I guess if I'm going to tell you about Terran school, I need to tell you about my Terran friends.
We met on the fifth day of school. It was lunch. I was standing in the middle of the cafeteria, wondering why Terrans always have to be so loud, when two guys shoved past me, knocking me in to another girl.
"I'm so sorry!" I exclaimed, noticing how she'd almost lost her lunch (literally). The girl had long blonde hair and the biggest blue eyes I'd ever seen.
She laughed. "No worries, I'm still not used to this place either."
I turned to go, but before I could she grabbed my shoulder. "Hey, do you want to sit with my cousin and I? You look lost."
"That would be great," I sighed with relief.
She nodded. "Right. Follow me."
We sat down at a table with a view of a green-space. A boy was already there, reading a book. "Thomas," the girl stated, but he didn't look up. "Thomas!" the girl yelled, slamming her hand down by his book.
"Ah! Oh, hi Lex. What's your name?" he asked, peering at me. He had the same eyes as the girl, but they were behind thin glasses.
"Um, Sora."
"That's pretty!" the girl exclaimed.
The boy-Thomas?-rolled his eyes at her. "Did you seriously forget to ask somebody their name again?"
She blushed. "Yes," she sighed and, turning towards me, smiled and said, "It's nice to meet you Sora. I'm Alexa, and this is my cousin Thomas."
And then we talked for the rest of lunch. It was nice...and they invited me to sit with them tomorrow! I have Terran friends now...Joanne was proud of me when I told her (so she says).
Alexa is kinda crazy. She's not afraid to talk or sing really loud...and she has an opinion on everyone.
Thomas is her complete opposite. He has brown hair, and glasses, and he's really smart. He takes-what's it called?-senior-level classes. And he's addicted to candy. Alexa tells me he goes through a pack of gum a week.
That's it for right now, I guess. Oh! I forgot to tell you about the football game! That can be next week's post. It was pretty nimbus...
