lily (lee-lee)

lily is this girl who acts like she's all shy and artsy but is so annoying once you get to know her. she'll complain to you about how badly she does in school (because she's doing her stupid little drawings instead of taking notes) and be like, 'oh how are YOU doing so well all you do is stare at your laptop and play MINECRAFT its not faiiiir' and she'll hate on the nicest people in the school like, 'omg i HATE mr insert name here he thinks we decide when we have to go do music and he's ALWAYS getting sooooo mad at us for having to go halfway through class' (actually that only happened once and he wasn't even mad) also she spends so much time complaining about us all having nice food for lunch when really we only have, like, fruit and museli bars and a sandwich and she eats like 4 giant cookies every day. she is so annoying so we gave her the nickname lee-lee because she HATES it when people mispronounce her name like excuuuuse me but how bout you try ordering coffee with a name like Guinevere!
Lily (lee-lee) thinks I'm friends with her but really she was the only person I could find who wasn't a pickme

Lily just spent all of class complaining to me about how she always forgets to credit her sources in a project and gets low marks

Lily

Lily is the nicest person you will ever meet. She always gives hugs and always sticks up for you. She gets in a little trouble at school but is overall super smart and generous. Everyone thinks her life is amazing when it isn’t really. She has a hard time at home and worries that if she isn’t pretty or skinny enough people will judge her. You should never be mean to a lily because you will regret it. They care a lot about you and deserve all the attention they can get
Lily: bye have an amazing day!
Person: I had a great day with her, she’s so kind and makes me feel happy.
