Journey prompt 2

My protagonist is named Thomas Mayo. He looks lean. he doesn't have any facial problems, he is average height for a high schooler, and he has long hair. His personality is just focused on surviving high school later on in the book he gets used to it and he starts worrying about bullies and the high school dance/prom, plus he has to figure out who to be his girlfriend and the one he dances with. The books chapters are named of all the problems he has I cant name them all but the main problem is high school. Technically its more like some of the problems you will face in high school. Quote-"These guys Rob and Barry sat next to me in homeroom, they seemed like nice guys and since were all new to high school, I guess thats all it really took for us to become friends.Maybe that was too easy.Maybe I need to raise my standards." This quote tells about Thomas about his first friends he had in homeroom this tells what a major problem he had in high school which was friends. He did in fact had to raise his standards to get more friends and a girl friend.
