HOLLYWOOD.
can YOU take the heat?
can YOU take the heat?
Hollywood. It’s the place that everybody knows and dreams about. The sun, the celebrities, the shopping. But is the Hollywood we see on the television and read about in the papers the real Hollywood? Of course not. There’s more drama; more bitchiness; and alot more gossip than you see and read about. The teenagers here are more unruly than anywhere else in America, and there’s more sex, drugs and rock ‘n’ roll than ever before.
Within the big grassy hills of Hollywood come some of the most prestigious boarding schools in the whole of the U.S.A – the world, even. Hawthorne Hills School of The Arts is one of these schools. Many people have passed through its hallowed halls over the years. This school is invitation only – every pupil must have some kind of talent, whether it is musically, theatrically, athletically, or artistically. Or they must have very rich parents that managed to bribe the principal to allow their child to have a place in the school. Many of the students that attend this school go on to have big futures. Some became world redound artists; others the next big movie star. But I know what you’re thinking. And all I’m going to say is that just because this place is one of the best schools in the country don’t mean that all the kids here are snobby and stuck up.
This is the twenty-first century. Kids spend more time partying or getting off with each other than studying.SomeAlot kids are in love with their best friends. Some people are so quiet, people don’t know they exist. Others people are so loud, you can hear them on the other side of the campus. Let me warn you now: this school is like a documentary about lions on the Discovery Channel. You must, must, keep you guard up at all times and be careful whom you tell your secrets to. If somebody seems trustworthy then the chances are they probably aren’t. Are you sure you still want to accept your invitation to come here?
Before you answer that question, you'd best read this too:
Dear potential new student,
I'm Alexxis Romano; but people rarely call me that unless I'm in trouble or you're my grandmother. Anywho. The principal has roped me into writing a letter to all of the new students, because I usually take the newbies in for a while to stop them getting chewed up and spat out my most of those little prissy Royalty girls. I wouldn't say I'm famous around the school; but if you ask most people about 'that chick with the pink hair' then they'll know whom you mean.
Hawthorne... Well, there's two sides to this place really. There's the good and there's the bad. The pretty and the ugly. Pros and cons. Yada yada, so on and so on. It all depends on the people to meet. See, there are so many prissy rich people that think they can use their Daddy's money to control the school (there are a couple that actually have a heart, but I know only one). Then there are the kids that enjoy telling the Royalty where they can shove it; and the ones inbetween. The 'ones inbetween' are the ones that either bow down to the Royalty or just don't have the stomach to tell them where to stick it so just avoid them at all costs.
Long story short: this place is your typical American boarding school. You've got the cliques; the drama; and the usual sex drugs and rock 'n' roll. The new Principal is also pretty laid back - I bet he won't proof read this letter before it gets sent to you. Hm... At least you get to learn the truth about this place instead of some piece of rubbish about how Hawthorne will 'improve your chances of getting into a decent college' and all that jazz. Although, I wouldn't reccomend showing this letter to your parents... Just tell them to call the secretary so they can sit and listen to the load of rubbish I'm saving you from.
hope to see you around, Lexxi.
