We were waiting for biology class to begin. She smiled and raised her eyebrows. It was my idea, I guess, in the first place. "Let's put a hate note in someone's locker," I said to Julie, "Another one of your great ideas, Karen? Whose locker do you suggest we put it in?" 1. KLAUSUR Miriam: they That is, we both said "Good morning" to her and "See you tomorrow." But she was just - well, different. In spite of the fact that she was pretty, with long, black hair and a graceful figure, she wasn't popular. Miriam always kept to herself. Besides that, she wrote poetry - that weird, free verse kind that nobody can understand. That was how it began. The next morning, Julie and I arrived at school early. We planned to write a note and put it in Miriam's locker, number 160. "What should we say?" I asked. I held my pencil over a piece of notebook paper. "Something simple. How about 'You stink' I printed the message in large, untidy letters. "There," I said, handing the paper to Julie. "I don't want it. You take it." She pushed the note back. "I'm scared." Karen wrote the note, had the idea... I didn't want to, but I took the paper. My hands trembled as I walked down the hallway. I heard the wants loud clack of my footsteps on the linoleum.

When the hundreds of marbles went bouncing and clattering down the hallway, I wonder how she explained it to the principal. He was standing it happened. After that, Julie got the idea of making a vooder dell of Miriam. I must say we did an excellent job. no regrets We used a large carrot for the body, and a small onion with black yarn for the head. After we drew the face on in ink, we stuck a huge hat pin through the onion. Then we hung a tiny sign on the doll that said "Miriam". I thought it looked rather cute on the shelf of Miriam's locker. We reached a new height the next day. Julie had a petition to change the school dress code. It had been signed by almost our whole class, but it hadn't been given to the principal yet. We traced all the names onto another sheet of paper, which said: "We, the undersigned, do hereby declare that Miriam Laker is weird, and do hereby announce that we hate her." Julie put that little gem in Miriam's locker, just before biology class. they were froid first ther We waited in the biology room for Miriam to come in. We wanted to see how she had taken our last surprise. The tardy bell rang, but Miriam still hadn't come. "Maybe she isn't here today," Julie whispered to me. "She's never been late for a class before." The period was almost over when we heard the rescue squad arrive at school. Our teacher left the room to find out what had happened.
