      FIELD TRIP

      Anna Dunlap, the most popular girl at my school, can take the fun out of anything. She says you’re a middle school loser if you:

      Watch Saturday morning cartoons.

      Enjoy shopping with your mom.

      Put yellow mustard on hot dogs.

      She also thinks that:

      Ice cream=pimples.

      Roller blades=thick ankles.

      Video games=brain rot.

      I love ice cream, rollerblades, and video games. I also like yellow mustard, cartoons, and shopping with my mom and I don’t care what Anna thinks.

      Anna thinks she’s better than everyone else, and she never misses a chance to prove it.

      I never pass up a chance to prove her wrong.

      Like the day she turned the class rummage sale into a contest to see who had the BEST used stuff.

      Every year, the Pine Tree Middle School seventh grade visits a historical park called Old Town. People there wear colonial costumes and show how early Americans lived and worked.

      The field trip is one of the best parts of seventh grade, but it’s not free. So every year, the class holds a rummage sale to raise money to pay for tickets and lunch.

      Ms. Stark separated our fourth-period history class into three groups. Each group will have one booth at the rummage sale, she explained.

      I waved to my friends. Becca, Monica, Adam, Tommy, and Peter came to my desk.

      Carly Madison and four other girls rushed over to Anna. They reminded me of hungry flies zooming in on a garbage dump. They want to be popular, and Anna is the most popular girl in school. Some girls would do almost anything if Anna said it was
