Flipped
Bryce: My mom didn't understand why it was so awful that "that cute little girl" had held my hand. She thought I should be friends with her! "You like soccer. Why don't you go kick the ball around?" Because I don't want to be kicked around, that's why! And although I couldn't say it like that at the time, I still had enough sense at seven and a half to know that Julianna Baker was dangerous.
Julianna(Julie): What did a kiss feel like anyway? Somehow I knew it wouldn't be like that one Mom and Dad gave me at bedtime. The same species, maybe, but a radically different beast, like a wolf and a whippet. Only science would put them under the same tree. Looking back, I like to think that it was partly scientific curiosity that made me chase after that kiss from Bryce Loski, but it was probably mostly those blue eyes.
Millicent Min: Girl Genius
When she gets moved up to high-school at age 11. her fellow 11 year olds hate her for going to high-school and her fellow high-school students hate her for being different. Then when her mom signes her up for volleyball things go from bad to worse. Next, she has to tutor Stanford Wong, jerk, jock. Worse to HORRIBLE!!!! When she meets Emily, things lighten up and she might make her first friend!! But she has to hide all evidence that she is in high-school at age 11. What it going to take? Sheer Genius!
