My first 3 months in the community were so boring, because I needed to stay inside our house and take care of my baby sister while my mom and dad were working. Now that the school year was about to start, I felt so excited to have new friends. I hope that this school year would not be bad as I think it would be.
It was my first year at Macrovan High School in Smilven, England, a spacious Catholic school. I look around me and I see everyone busy doing something with a purpose. I don’t know anyone, I feel so lost and insignificant. This new school has 3 buildings. All I have right now with me is a timetable to guide me through this massive campus. My first class is in the east wing and I’m near the west wing. I have five minutes to get

His looks really caught my attention. He was a pretty tall guy probably around 6 feet, muscular, and handsome. I was already running late, but luckily the teacher wasn’t there yet. The teacher introduced himself and took attendance. Considering that I was dreaming of my knight in shining armor that I had just seen in the hallway, the teacher had to call my name three times before I responded.
Surprisingly, a student entered our room; it was the same guy I had seen earlier. He walked in with an air of confidence as he spiked up his dark brown hair, then sat beside me. This really shocked me. Gosh, is this real? I could not pay attention to what my teacher was discussing for the rest of the period because of him. Five minutes before the period ended, I excitedly said with a lower voice, "Hi, I'm Lauren." He stared at me and he removed one of his earphones and said "Oh hey, my name is... Jonathan Lemuel." He hesitated. "But my friends called me Lem" he added and smiled. It was the first time I had confidence talking to a guy I liked. "What's your next class?" I asked, he answered quietly "Math" and he started packing his things. We did not have enough time to talk because we only had few minutes to go to our next classes, unfortunately, not in the same class. Since then, I couldn’t stop thinking about our conversation, although it was a "Hi and Bye" situation.
Later that day, I kept on looking at the students going inside our classroom hoping
The conversation then developed into him talking about his studies and his experiences as an architect. He made us introduce ourselves. I didn’t feel shy, for I had practiced this enough in my Speech class in the summer. After introducing myself, he gave me a mysterious look and stated that I was the first Early College student he had ever taught. I sat down feeling more relaxed and light, and the introductions continued. As many of the other classes, the first day was only of introduction and foreshadowing the works that would be present in the future. It was 6:50 p.m. and the class had ended. I picked up my backpack and pushed in my chair, but as I walked towards the exit, I looked at him but he was already looking at me and he smiled. I smiled back and opened the doors. As I walked back towards the cafeteria, I was reading the syllabus again, still examining the calming detail in it and reviewing the projects and tests. I entered the cafeteria and there were less than 5 students. I walked in the concrete sidewalk again and felt the autumn’s cold breeze hit my cheek. The sun was down but it’s warm and calming colors were still visible. The warm red-yellowish
I met a life changing individual in middle school. We referred to him as “Mr. D”. He was my seventh and eighth grade English teacher. I sat in his class and dozed off during his grammar lectures. He often sparked my attention with jokes, sports scores, stories from literature books. However, the majority of Mr. D’s classes were not overly exciting or stellar in anyway.
I was starting my first day at a new school. My palms were sweaty, my heart was thumping, and I had butterflies in my stomach. I took a deep breath and walked towards the grey doors. I thought about what the new school would be like; how the teachers were and how the students were. I missed my friends from my old school. I walked through those big grey doors to a whole new place.
When I saw my friends walking toward me, that’s when I finally stepped into the building. As I walked into the building, I was astonished by how enormous the school was compared to my middle school. Some teachers welcomed me to the new school, and asked me if I needed any help finding the classrooms, while the other teachers were too busy typing on their computers. The moment when I entered my homeroom, it surely was much bigger than the one at my old school, the room makes me feel more comfortable with the new environment because the teacher was very friendly and very professional because of well-prepared clothes, and the way she talked. I finally realized that I have entered the world of reality, such as passing all my classes and graduate high school, then off to
It was the first day back at school for a new year. Many of us still longed to be on holiday, carefree and careless. It showed on our faces as we grumpily and wearily made our way along the corridors to our House Room. This year our form (11) had a new student. When we walked in we all just looked at him, scrutinizing, mentally noting anything unusual. There was something about him though, but I couldn't quite see it. Nobody interacted with him at first - the teachers were all around him, then he was set free, for us students to talk with him, I didn't talk to him myself, rather I just listened to the questions of others, which, he answered them faintly. They ask him questions to get him talking, to get him relaxed, but he simply answered
The story of Romeo and Juliet is one of love and terrible tragedy. Many people have argued if it was actually love that they were experiencing, or if it was just a physical attraction. The article, “Love At First Sight“ by Elizabeth Bernstein, provides facts that prove Romeo and Juliet were not in love, but experiencing strong infatuation with each other.
Much has been said about love, but if you search the horizon, you will discover that most of the things written about love are either pithy or cynical.
The door swings open and a guy walks in. He has black hair that falls in all the right places. He's wearing a black long sleeves shirt and white washed jeans. On his feet are white converses. His shirt is artfully deaigned to show of how toned he is. He heads to the teachers desk and hands him a note. They converse for some time. I return to my phone.
I remember the first day I saw this kid. It was in September on a warm and windy Tuesday. This particular Tuesday was not like any other Tuesday because of the new student and the way the room felt when he walked in. I usually sat in the back left of the classroom because I was not that type of child that would sit in the front
But, one girl as her name was called, responded with “Bonczyk” and I thought to myself, that is weirdest way to say here that I have ever heard. I just went along with it as anyone would and laughed under my breath and class continued. The teacher introduced himself and gave us a bit of an insight on his background. He went on to say that he was an Ohio State football fan which bothered me slightly. In the following days, he made fun of the fact that I was a TCU football fan and that TCU had a weaker football program. I knew that he was trying to build a connection between him and I was happy with that because most of my other teachers did not even bother making that connection so I was pleased. As the classes went on, I smelled something out of the ordinary and I looked over to see a girl eating a pepper. It was definitely different from what I was used to
As the story goes, it was my first day as a freshman at Poplar Bluff High School. As I stepped off the bus to my new school, I found myself unfamiliar and nervous. My first instinct was to find my friends on such a wide campus, but, class would be starting soon so I wouldn’t have time. “Guess I will just get to my first class early”, I thought to myself while walking in the shivering, cold weather.
The morning was bright and the scorching Texas sun beamed down against my face as I stood frozen, my legs halted by the utter terror of entering this massive middle school and my heart broken by the fact that I recognized no familiar faces amongst the sea of students entering through the front door. The ones that I had fought with, grown with, and ultimately learned to love, the girls and boys that I had seen each and every school day since kindergarten were now five hundred miles away while I was alone, left here to conquer this unknown world on my own.
I will never forget that first day at this new kingdom of high school. It was a hot summer day in September as I entered the building. Sweat was in the palms of my hands, and my feet drug like cinder blocks across the tile. All i could think was how this could be any different from the last set of kids I had grown to despise.
Love is difficult to define, difficult to measure, and difficult to understand. Love is what great writers write about, great singers sing about, and great philosophers ponder. Love is a powerful emotion, for which there is no wrong definition, for it suits each and every person differently. Whether love is between family, friends, or lovers, it is an overwhelming emotion that can be experienced in many different ways.
Love is an abundant emotion that has different degrees. There is familial love, friendly love, unconditional love, and of course romantic love. Romantic love will be the superstar of this article. Romantic love may be around every corner whether between an old couple or a young teenage romance. However, love is not the easiest thing to attain. It is such a simple concept, though a difficult thing to actually have a person’s hands on.
