Percy Jackson's Diary

Today we had to write a diary entry of a first person view of Percy Jackson. How did he get kicked out his first school?

Diary Entry #478

Dear Diary,

I did it again, I couldn’t keep my mouth shut. I got kicked out of another school and yet I saw it coming. I’m not bothered by being kicked out, but I’m more anxious for my mother. She doesn't have the time or money to keep sending me to every private school in New York. I’m in 5th grade and have already been kicked out of 6 boarding schools. I can’t imagine the look on my mother's face when she finds out I’ve been kicked out another. She’ll be disappointed. At least I wouldn’t be forced to wear the itchy and stiff uniform I would be forced to wear. 

All of this wouldn't have happened if I had just left Ryan alone in 3th grade. Who is Ryan? Ryan was my best friend in St Alberts Private School. He was my first friend there and my roommate. We used to wait for the teachers to go to sleep so we could play ghost tag in our dorm But we grew apart after Spring Break and I guess he made new friends. One day I was sitting alone in the cafeteria and him and his friends scoffed and whispered as they walked passed me.

One of them says “What are you looking at?” But I ignored him and started eating again. Ryan said whispering loudly. “Leave him alone, he is just a nerdy lonner.” Right then and there I should have just left it, but I was filled with rage. They whispered all year and I couldn’t take it anymore. I clenched my fist and swung at him striking him on the left cheek. Later that day I was kicked out my first boarding School.
