eading To The Top I didn'T aifend The firsf day of school. I suppose nobody was To blame, afier ail IT was 90 degrees. Obviously none of my friends wenT eiiher. If I couldn'T go, They ceriainly wouldn'T have been able To. I have never feIT so dumped on. My Owner could noT have made IT wiThouT me lasT year, buT did noi even Think abouT me on The very firsT day of school This year. I heard iT was a loT of fun Too, sTudenTs saw each oiher for The firsT Time since school IeT ouT in June and Talked aboui whaT happened during The summer. Even Though I am proud of My Owner, I am jealous. Whai did ThaT Tuxedo or leTTerman's jackei have To do wiTh My Owner's hard work? Those Two shared The glory aT The prom and awards nighi, buT I supporTed My Owner Through The rough Times which goi him There. I encouraged My Owner To conTinue his hard work in Track. When he asked someone ouT on a firsT daie, I helped his confidence because he knew he looked good when l was around. I helped My Owner when he spili chocolaTe down The fronT of his shlrT by covering iT up . . iT was humiliaTing, buT l'd do anyihing for My Owner because ThaT's The kind of sweaishiri I am. I wish I could have been There aT awards nighi, prom nighT or The firsT day of school, buT I never seemed To be good enough for Those special occasions. I wonder if The Tuxedos and sporTscoaTs appreciaTed The hard work My Owner and his friends did To achieve Their rec- ogniTion. I appreciaTed IT because I was There all year assisTing My Owner in his goal To be On Top. Twirl and Scream replaced Twist and Shout.
