Welcome to my page dedicated to my thoughts on school in general. As a freshman, school is like a jungle; you can get pretty lost with out a map. Thank goodness I haven't gotten too lost yet!
My Fav People In School
*************************************************************

A Personal Experience -Day 1-My First Day Of High School
5:15 AM-Here I am, high school, whew! I get up early to make myself look my best and get ready for the big day. Good thing I laid out my clothes last night!
7:00 AM-My dad's car pulls out of the driveway. My nervous stomach turns as we drive out of our street. My nail polish matches my dad's lunch bag, not that it matters. I rummage through my bag to make sure I have everything. Everything’s good! I hope I have homeroom with somebody I know, or somebody I can relate to (a possible new best friend.) God grant me courage to speak though. I sigh as we get onto the main roads. My dad turns on the radio. How nice, he put it on my fav station! I look out my window and listen to the words of Dave Matthew's Band.”Ooh traffic jam got more cars than a beach got sand….”
7:27 AM- My dad's car pulls up next to one of the main buildings and wishes me good luck. I take a deep breath and get out of the car. I pull out my messenger bag and put it over my shoulder. I take my first steps on the dark pavement and look at the vast amount of buildings. Am I going to survive this?
7:30 AM- I walk in to my homeroom with shaky feet. I find the desk with my list of classes on it and sit down. I glance down at the paper and remember the classes I had chosen that summer. I look around the room to see if I recognize anybody. Nope. I turn to see a girl next to me in a cool black shirt drawing an awesome picture of a dragon. BINGO! I had found somebody to relate to! Now, what to say?
9:10 AM-The tour of the campus is over. I still haven't gotten enough courage to say hi to the girl. We're walking an auditorium for our pics for our IDs. The line is a mile long. Uhg. Luckily, we get to sit down. I just find a spot, sit my butt down, and wait. There's an empty seat next to me. I wonder who will sit there. Then, guess who asked if anybody was sitting there? The girl was drawing the dragon earlier! I say no and she sits down. I start to talk to her.
9:35 AM-Back in homeroom, sitting next to my new friend, Araina. Soon we will be finding our classes and meeting our new teachers. I hope I don’t get lost! Hmmm, physical science first period. Not bad! Oh gosh, there goes that annoying bell that sounds like my old school’s fire alarm!
12:28 PM- Ahhh, lunch! This lunch room is a total, how should I put this, JUNGLE! I’m not waiting in that mile long lunch line! I pull up to the Powerade machine and put in my money. Thank god this machine isn’t picky about dollar bills (unlike the Fruitopia machine which I now know is very picky about how crisp your Washington’s are.) I grab a Jagged Ice flavored one and look around the crowded room for a familiar face. I see my old friends from my old school and hang out with them until the bell to my half study rings.
1:20 PM- Hmm, art class. My sanctuary! I sit down and wait to see our new teacher, Mrs. Root. I hope she isn’t a really critical type. I find a seat and sit down. I don’t recognize anybody from any of my classes. Oh well. I hope to meet at least one person!
2:30 PM- Home again! High school isn’t such a big deal. Let’s just hope we don’t get trampled tomorrow!
High School Is......-A View of High School from a Freshman-
High School is....
Getting lost on the first day
Meeting new people
Being bumped in hallways
Hearing weird bells at the turn of periods
A constant rush of feet
Getting homework
Lugging around 20 pounds of books
Having a busy day
Getting up at 5:15
Living on Gatorade and granola bars
Seeing plenty of hot guys (=)
Taking naps durng study
Writing notes in Algebra class
Making a fool out of myself (aka dancing) at the shcool dance
Standing in front of a whole class for oral presentations shaking like a leaf
Racking your brain during a quiz
The good, the bad and the evil teahcers
Avoiding Mr. Ek when listening to your CD player
That’s all I have right now, if anybody wants to add more e-mail me at dragongirl8725@hotmail.com!
