Publisher Marketing: I can't believe that we are finally here Meg exclaimed, as she, Kayla, and I made our way to the restroom. I know, right? Kayla asked. Frowning a little bit, she added, Too bad that Jeanette, Gabby, Kasey, and Missy, got expelled and can't experience this. How could they have thought that getting drunk at a party during Spring Break would not have consequences for them? Meg asked, incredulously. I am angry at them, but sad that they are not here to experience this. Silently, I agreed with her. Even though I was angry at the girls for getting drunk and kicked out of school, there was a part of me that still wished that those four could enjoy the experience of competing at Disney's ESPN Wide World of Sports. As my friends and I made our way into the restroom, I could not help but think that nothing could rain on our parade. However, a few seconds later, an all too familiar girl made her way out of one of the stalls. Unfortunately, the girl was none other than my ex-best friend, Kim Martinez.
