First Day

Use To Be Scared......Now I'm More Confident Then Ever
I woke up to the sound of my alarm going off. My mom yelling "It's
your first day of High School." I responded, "ughhh.....summer's over". Mom said
"That's right time to get focused on school." Great that's the last thing I wanted to
do. Just the thought of work gives me a headache. I had just been school
shopping a week ago but, nothing seemed to have caught my eye for that first
day look. So I settled for my pink and black plad shirt with black leggings.
On my way to school I had butterflies and, motor mouth wasn't
making it any better, she knew how nervous and scared I was. All I could here at
6:55 in the morning was my mom. She was way to excited for me. As I stepped
out the car I looked at the front of Stevenson High School and thought........oh
man, I hope I survive.Considering there is about 2,000 students and I came from
St.Michael's School were there was only 850 this was a whole new enviroment
for me. I already new my whole cheer team and a few other people. A sophmore
approached me and started talking to me. She was giving me all the "Ins" and
"Outs" on Stevenson. My heart stopped racing when I realized I already had
friends.
At lunch all my friends were yelling "Kayla sit with us", "Kayla come
here", "Kayla", "Kayla." That made me more confident then ever. One girl
in my sixth hour, Mr.Sherbbs class asked me my name. I responded "Kayla
and yours?" "Allie, do you know the Koestering twins?" I said " yeah, we went
to sms together they are really nice." Allie said "yeah, I've seen you with them
before and always wanted to say something just was to scared." I responded,
"I know how that feels, but we should all hang out sometime." Mr.Sherbbs
quickly said, "Alright class that's it have a nice day." Thanks God were done.
Just to think at the begining of my day I felt like I was going to have a heart
attack.Now I'm walking out the door with my head held high, more confident
then ever.
