Title for my work-in-progress?

[??Sabrina ????????Star??]

I really need a catchy (i.e. not too long) title for a book I am beginning to write. While I know it isn’t necessary to have the title first, I feel like that’s an important part of the book. Anyways, here’s the plot:

Nothing’s ever different in Vulcan, West Virginia. Fifteen-year-old Julie Grand should know; she’s lived there all her life, and that’s exactly how she likes it. An algebra nerd, Julie’s favorite thing about math is how consistent it is. Unlike English, math has one answer, with no room for leeway — just how Julie likes it. In between her older brother, Adrian, running away only to turn up half-dead in an alley three hours away her mother contracting cancer after giving birth to the fourth edition of the Grand family, Vulcan’s the one constant variable in her life. That is, until Sonia Ahmad moved to Vulcan. As soon as Sonia arrives, Julie’s life spins out of control. For one thing, with a disturbing argument about the Middle East in Speech & Debate class, Sonia wins the highest spot on the Debate Team — a spot Julie’s held for years. For another, Sonia’s questions and new ideas aren’t welcome at Vulcan High. Besides, if the red welt down Sonia’s arms means anything, Sonia has a secret…and as payback for Sonia shaking up her life, Julie’s determined to find out just what it is…

Also, you don't have to do this but best answer goes to the person that does this in the best detail AND provides a title: What do you think of the story line?

What about "The Butterfly Effect" or "Order in Chaos" for titles?
The Butterfly Effect is a logical process in upper levels of math in which the student find an order in chaos. For example, if you look at a conch shell or the inside of a sun flower, there is a mathematical patter than can predict where the next piece of the pattern will fall. It's essentially a branch of Occam's Razor, which states that everything can be simplified. There will always be a recurring pattern, and it will not change (unless interrupted).

"The Butterfly Effect" or "Order in Chaos" could be good titles because that's what Julie's life is all about, finding the order in the chaos. It might also be neat if you tied into the plot something about Julie working with the Chaos Theory (the overarching umbrella of The Butterfly Effect and Order in Chaos) just to tie it all together nicely.

Here's a wikipedia quote that should help explain this:
"The butterfly effect is a metaphor that encapsulates the concept of sensitive dependence on initial conditions in chaos theory; namely that small differences in the initial condition of a dynamical system may produce large variations in the long term behavior of the system. Although this may appear to be an esoteric and unusual behavior, it is exhibited by very simple systems..."

I also think the story line is fantastic! Very compelling, and it attacks some pretty heavy issues (ie: the Middle Eastern War). You are also a great writer, I can see it in your synopsis. I think it'll be a great story, really!!
