It never stop stops, never stops. Well, you better.

School had never really been Eli's thing. Sure, he didn't mind being at a boarding school, especially Jackson High where he had a lot of friends. He liked the socialization aspect of it all. The actual school work and classes? Not so much. However, he would never skip one of his classes. He couldn't bring himself to do it. What if the one day that he skipped was the one day that something cool actually happened? What if Britney Spears or Katy Perry showed up and danced half naked for the class? That would be cool. Maybe he should have skipped today though, Eli thought to himself as he packed his things from his room. He frowned down at his bags, stuffed full of crumpled clothes and random pieces of junk.

He had been called out of class by the principal, who looked annoyed to be anywhere but his overstuffed chair behind his office desk. He had frowned at Eli, looking extremely irritated when Eli offered him a childlike grin. "It seems that your mother believes that your less than acceptable grades are a product of our school's lack of support," he said sharply, sarcasm clear in his voice when he said the last words, "Rather than your pure lack of intellect and motivation."

What did that even mean? Eli wasn't sure, but he knew didn't like the way it had been said. All he knew was that his mother was pulling him from a school he had been going to for four, going on five, years. She was jerking him away from his familiar surroundings and friends and dropping him into the rival school. It hardly seemed fair to Eli, but he was sure he had nothing to worry about. He had always been really good at making friends at Jackson High. Why would Tidewater be any different?


Think it over, prima donna. You don't want to sever.

Likes: corny jokes, parties, sports, music, playing guitar, photography, cartoons, old scary movies, winning, dogs, flirting, pranks, drinking, girls
Dislikes: school work, complicated jokes, people with no sense of humor, math, losing, cats, sarcasm, confrontation, reading, sci-fi movies, smoking, drugs, whiny girls


All the work to impress charming girls out of their dresses.

Dense: Although his childish and juvenile sense of humor and lack of attention in class contribute to his bad grades, most of the blame can be pinned on his slight lack of intelligence.
Persistent: Eli has never been one to give up on any of his goals or crazy ideas. He often feels that it will literally kill him to admit defeat, and he sometimes comes off as pushy and assertive.
Goofy: Corny jokes and goofing off in class are favorites of Eli. Feeding off the attention of others, he often finds himself in the "class clown" position. Although he enjoys humor, complicated jokes and sarcasm often go over his head.
Competitive: Failure is not in Eli's vocabulary. Success, win. Those are words he prefers. Whether it's competing in a team sport or pursuing an attractive girl, he is very determined to accomplish his goal and come out on top.


Smiling pretty, well pretty will swallow you forever.

• Allie Grey - What can I say? Eli thinks she's extremely hot, and she seems to be pretty good at egging on his insane ideas. Someone who helps you plan a naked run for homecoming votes has got to be a good friend, right?
