    Have you ever thought that a little thing could lead to nothing? Have you ever thought someone’s little thing is going to lead to nowhere and that she is wasting her time? Well, that happened to Chanel a few years ago. It all started on a nice hot summer day, it was the last week until school let out for summer vacation. “Are you excited for the big test?” asked Chanel “No, why would I?” Replied her best friend Addi. “Because I just know I am going to do well!” Chanel exclaimed “You are such a nerd,” Addi said rolling her eyes.
