Young Sugar had been a rolling stone all of her life, and never was stationary for more than a few months. She's always loved this way of life because the excitement of meeting new people was such an adventure. This time, it's not the same. Her free-bird parents uproot her life and move it from her beautiful home on the California coast, all the way to Austin, Texas. She leaves behind the only boy she has ever loved, Trevor and her beautiful set of A- list friends. Home sick and out of place, Sugar-Mags devises a plan to be an outcast. She doesn't want to have a reason to cry when she leaves her school this time so an anti-social life seems the way to go. When she finally arrives at school, she finds that her plan doesn't work so well against hot jocks or A-list gossip girls. Her plan gets harder and harder to maintain, and although her wacky outfits and carrying around shrubberies have worked mildly before, she's running out of ways to keep herself from caving in.
