《The UnSlut Project》"The Last Day of School."

June 15, 2000
Well, today was the last day of school. There was a graduation ceremony for the 8th graders in the new gym from 8:30-10:30am. Then we signed yearbooks from 10:30-12:15, when we went to lunch. At 12:45, we went back into the new gym for more ceremonious stuff, which lasted until school ended at 2:15.
At the graduation ceremony, each teacher gave out awards to their students who did the best. I received a Certificate of Excellence from the music, theater, science, and algebra teachers, the Middle School Language Arts Award for writing, and a Certificado de Mérito from the Spanish teacher "por su excelente trabajo en español." [Man, I cleaned up at that middle school graduation awards ceremony.] And then everyone received a "Certificate of Award" from the principal for "Completion of Studies."
Anyways, I'm very sad that school's over, but I'm also excited for the summer. The year book is cool, because the 8th graders got to write a little "bio" next to their picture. But we wrote them in February, so they're a little outdated now. Mine says:

Quote: "Right... do your thing." [I guess I wanted people to think I said this a lot.]
Memories: parties, summer99, vids, gr7spn, VSS, LinsCasa, SB, s7 [Parties, summer99, okay... and you lost me. I have no idea what any of those other things mean.]
All in all, I got 69 signatures. Last year I got 70, which is counting stupid ones that just say, "Have a good summer" and nothing personal. I hate those, cause where's the memory there? In 6th grade, I only got 29 signatures because everyone hated me.
High school seems so scary! And there will be so much more responsibility, and... I don't know. I can't do anything except deal with it. Oh, well.

[This concludes the portion of my diary that I'll be posting online. Once I got to high school, I was able to continue focusing on academics, music, performing, and my friendships enough to overcome the reputation of the school "slut." I dated Steven until senior year of high school, when we broke up to go to separate colleges.
I graduated from Harvard University and moved across the country to pursue my dream career. I live with my husband, our baby daughter, and our adorable puppy in California. Life got so much better for me, and it can get better for every girl who is sexually bullied and "slut" shamed.
As of December 29, 2015, an updated, expanded version of this story is now available as a BOOK! You can check it out and purchase it here: http://zestbooks.net/unslut
I'm currently working on my first novel, "Night, Forgotten" and posting as I go here on Wattpad. My goal is to be done by the end of November - check it out and let me know what you think in the comments!
Thanks for reading!

Hunters of the Night
Parmasus was young boy, living with his father and mother. His father was abusive and would would beat both him and his mother, but one day, he went overboard. As Parmasus witnessed his mothers death, he saw only one choice. Run! Eventually, he managed to escape the city, but not without a fatal farewell gift from his father. Then he met Palazar, the vampire, who showed him salvation, and turned him into a vampire. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Hello there. This is my second series, also about vampires. I've always been fascinated with vampires, since childhood, so I decided to write a few different, unique books about them. My first book, Rise of the Vampires is about just that, and how the progenitor rises to power in a world of mixed High Fantasy, and Xianxia. This book however, is different, again. This is more traditional, in the sense that it isn't high fantasy, but closer to low fantasy. It begins in a time period similar to Ancient Greece, but it will travel through time, showing various ages. The vampire world will be similar to the World of Darkness, or Vampire the Masquerade. It's not a female romance book, as it will have action and stuff. But yeah, the books will follow Parmasus as he lives through the ages, becoming older and stronger. Also Rated 18+ for violence, gore, harsh language, explicit sex, etc.

Briars and Thorns
Millenia ago, humanity faced a catastrophe. Some devastating, catastrophic event that even to this day leaves its impact on humankind and the Earth. That’s not where our story takes place though, instead we look to space, where humans have taken up residence among the stars. Living in huge industrial space stations, life is a bore. Dull daily routines are broken only by extravagant fashion, music, and other means of self expression. Also, of course, the lifeblood of the stations- games. Four months ago, humanity was contacted by the first ever known alien life forms. These aliens, calling themselves the Erta offered their designs and schematics for their True Virtual Reality (TVR) console, as well as access to their game in exchange for peace. And humanity, excited at the opportunity to achieve one of their life long dreams (that is, to experience True VR), graciously took them up on their offer. Now, after scientists have finally confirmed the console to be safe for humans, the game is to finally be released to the public. This comes to the joy of most of the population, but a small portion of them can't help but be upset. As thousands of the researchers meant to be developing virtual reality, are fired overnight. Meet Brian Reed, one of these newly unemployed workers. Now, join Brian as he explores the very game that was the death of his job. And watch as he learns that the game is not quite what it seems.
