I didn’t have dogs or cats as pets, instead I had baby tigers and monkeys as close friends. I mean, can you even? Picture this: baby Lele running barefoot through cornfields miles and miles away from civilization. I was born in Caracas, a major city in Venezuela, but quickly moved to the countryside where I-get this-lived in a barn. Of course, part of your essence comes into this world with you at birth, but it’s really what happens next that starts to shape you into you. So I shall now tell you how I came to be truly Lele, a person I love for better or for worse. My point is: I believe that YOU-ness is something very special, no matter who you are, and it ought to be celebrated. Of course, you wouldn’t call it Lele-ness, you would call it Sara-ness or Jason-ness, or whatever your name might be. Ancient Greek philosophers would refer to this as the “soul”-but I am not an ancient Greek philosopher, I am a teenage girl, and so I will call it Lele-ness. See, every human being (and most animals, I find) have their own unique essence, an essence comprised of deeply rooted qualities that make them who they are. Before I tell you the story of how I vowed to survive high school, I’d like to talk about something near and dear to my heart. Fans of Mean Girls will love this fun and heartwarming fish-out-of-water story.
Leave it to Lele to reassure us that falling flat on your face is definitely not the end of the world. From crushing your crushes (what’s up with that hot transfer student Alexei?) to throwing Insta-fake parties with your BFFs and moaning over homework (GAH) with your frenemies, high school is a rollercoaster of exhilarating highs and totally embarrassing lows. Now she’s facing a whole new set of challenges-the relentless drama, the ruthless cliques, the unexpected internet celebrity-all while trying to keep her grades up and make her parents proud.įilled with the zany enthusiasm that has made Lele into Vine’s most viewed star, this charming novel is proof that high school is a trip. Lele is a bulls-eye target at her new school in Miami until, overnight, her digital fame catapults the girl with cheerleader looks, a seriously silly personality, and a self-deprecating funny bone into the popular crowd. Ten million followers and I still sit alone at lunch. You have younger students begin to look up to you and you will finally be old enough to get your driver's license!! Junior year is definitely the most academically challenging year yet.Synopsis: Vine superstar Lele Pons-“one of the coolest girls on the web” ( Teen Vogue)-teams up with #1 New York Times bestselling author Melissa de la Cruz ( The Isle of the Lost) in this lovable debut novel about the wilds and wonders of high school that’s as laugh-out-loud addictive as Lele’s popular videos. When you are juniors and seniors it is extremely bittersweet this is where the fun really begins to start. Savor every moment you have with the people that make you happy, you never know how much time you will have with them later on. As you grow, you see the kind of people you want to surround yourself with- eliminating those who you don't think you need anymore. Like I said, high school is where people find out who they really are. The friends you enter the high school with will probably not be the same friends you walk out the door with after graduation. Some teachers will be fabulous and some will not be so agreeable, but you need to learn to respect what they do and why. Most importantly you need to learn when to speak up and when to keep your pie hole shut. Each year your status will change and chances are that you will probably hate the people at the top of the food chain and know it. The first thing you need to understand is that there are two different kinds of "food chains" in high school. You will have so much fun making memories with the people you love. Don't get me wrong, high school isn't always so serious. The four years you spend in high school will be the most rapidly changing years of your life you find out who your true friends are and you gradually become the person you want to be for the rest of your life. It's not harder academically but it is extremely different in the fact that you are tossed into a melting pot of different types of people. Your middle school teachers more than likely scared the living daylights out of you by telling you how much harder high school will be. Throughout your years in high school you will make friends, lose friends and manage to find yourself along the way.
