Well, I survived my first day as a freshman in high school. Here's how my day went: The second my mom dropped me off, I was scared out of my mind. I didn't know where I was going, but fortunatly their were some upperclassmen(and some hot ones too) standing around. "Do you know where your going" one asked me, "not really" I said nervously giggling. He helped me find my way to Mr.Bohn's room, 315. I was the first person there, so I offered to help him rearrange the desks, and stuff, but he said that he didnt need help,but thank you. I mentally noted how good I was at sucking up to teachers. The students roled in, but unfortunatly no familiar faces from elementary school. I watched as friends greeted eachother with hug and "i havent seen you in forever"s. I nervously sat as Lakeisha and Demetrius(not kidding) talked a/b her pregnant mother, and things being off the chain. It's such a different environment from Cardinal Newman, but not a bad one, just different. The first thing we did was take a "test" asking us questions such as "do you think you are ugly" and "do your parents love you", etc. We will take the same test at the end of the year and see how we've changed...interesting. We then met our peer advisors, one named Tom who was WAY hott! They gave us a tour of the campus, which may I add makes me feel extremely lost and small. They warned us of how uncool it is to actually sit in the cafeteria, and where the freshman are allowed to sit, and not allowed to sit. After that, we had to go to a meeting a/b credits to graduate, etc. Mrs.Yannity, our guidance counselor, asked us what colleges we wanted to go to. Everyone else mumbled USC and Clemson, and other in state colleges, and there I was quietly saying "NYU". I felt a few of the people surrounding me looking at me with questioning looks. She then asked everyone what they wanted to be when we grow up. In fear of being laughed at I decided to pass on saying "an actress" since everyone else in the room wanted to be an architect or lawyer. We then had lunch, which at first was living hell. Everyone was grouped up in little circles, and I was alone. Finally, I saw Lantye, and ran to her. Once I was with her I felt a little bit better, but she's more outgoing than me, and had already made friends. Fortunatly, she introduced me to some people, and I feel like I'm already making friends. They invited me to go to lunch at Grouchos with them, but I didn't go. After lunch, we learned a/b how to use our agenda book. How that took 45 minutes I don't know. But for some reason I love day planners, and stuff like that so I actually was interested. Our last activity was getting our IDs taken, and our lockers assigned. That was boring, and didn't take the full 45 minutes. I'm happy to have gotten my first day over with,but I'm still scared. What if I don't make friends? What if "someone" that I know tells everyone not to like me? She's done it before, what would stop her from doing it now? Oh well, I guess I shouldn't worry. The best I can do is be nice to everyone, try my hardest to get straight As, and focus on performing. Sure, I would love to be Miss Falcon, or Homecoming Queen. But I'm not gonna spend every waking moment trying to achieve that. Popularity isn't a big deal to me anymore. I would love to be popular, but not if that meant i had to conform and be a bitch to everyone. I'd rather just get good grades and perform, and have friends. Whatever happens, happens.
