My First Day

Being the ''New Kid'' in school was something I had experienced only once before in second grade. It was great, joining a game of tag on the first day of school solidified my social circle for the next eight years. While unpacking boxes in my new room, I started thinking about my new school. Not only was the student body nearly six times the size of my previous high school, I was going to be six hours away from everything and everyone I had ever known. The first day of tenth grade was one the most nerve racking days of my life. When I walked into the class I grabbed a seat close to a big window and sat down. We began an Ice Breaker activity which was somewhat unproductive considering a large population of the class had naturally gravitated

That first day of school that morning was filled with nerves, and heading into the school year.  I was ready as usual and as soon as the bus came, waved to my parents as usual. The bus ride

My first day of middle school was all over the place. I had more classes then I did last year and had no idea where to go. My new school was 2 floors tall. I went up and down stairs over and over again. I didn’t know where my locker was or the combo. I was so not ready for middle school at all my life will never be the same because I will have multiple classes and teachers.

I remember the very first day of school, I felt isolated and misunderstood. When I got there all eyes were on me, looking at me as the new kid, I was sweating in the cold. I felt like going back home. In a classroom full of 7th graders, students were

The first day of middle school was quite an adventure. It all began when I walked to the bus stop. It was raining that day, and I was carrying an umbrella. Once

Soon enough preschool was over and here came our elementary school days. Everyone met many people in kindergarten. Many will be my friends throughout high school and beyond. Kindergarten was filled with arts and crafts, my portfolio, 2008 handprints, and stamped tee shirts. Suddenly kindergarten graduation was here, everyone was paired up and danced with a partner. First grade flew by and then came second grade with Ms. Foisy and Ms. Okabioshi. Ms. Okabioshi was one of the best teacher assistance we have ever had. Third and fourth grade with Mrs. Schuler and Ms. Ittes. These years were filled with warm fuzzies, a lot of reading and writing, and a lot of fun playing on the playground. The class watched Shilo and everyone hated the evil father. After that came fifth grade with Mr. Sifferman, also known as Millie’s cousin, he gave the hardest tests we have ever taken, but the most fun and memorable times we have had. After that year many people changed schools, I moved to California.

My first day as a seventh grader was crazy. Once I got off the bus, I walked into the building and found myself not knowing what to do. So, I just followed the other kids to see where they were going. After following them, I found myself in the gym. Everyone was talking to their friends and comparing their schedules to see if they had any classes together. I looked to see if I could find any of my friends from last year, and fortunately I did. They were sitting on the other side of the gym at the top row. I walked up the bleachers stairs and sat by them. I had not seen some of them since the last day of sixth grade. Then, I saw Mrs. Grieb and Mrs. King come up to give us a first day of school speech.

My first memory of elementry school was getting there and having no friends and it was like that for the first few days. I did know some people but cant really say we were friends by any means. I met my first friend on day three. His name was Keegan. At recess we would play tag, chase people around. I gonna be honest and say I probably wasnt the nicest kid back then. My favorite teacher in grade school was probably Mrs Jordan because she was really

It is the first day of school, well it is for me because it’s my fourth day in the United States. Many of the students in the first grade classroom have been in class for a couple months. A teacher tries to make me feel better of the new surroundings, I have to face the school cafeteria for the first time and I make a lifelong friend. The two first experiences in school were tough, but I made a true friend on the fourth day in the country.

My most vivid memory of intermediate school, was walking on the red carpet on the first day of fifth grade. At the time, I felt so grown up and mature. Come to realize, I was only ten years old. On the first day, I was so nervous to meet all of the new people that were coming from other elementary schools. Looking back, I shouldn't have been so nervous because I’m sure all of the other kids felt the same way. During those years, I met countless friends including Jayden, Makayla, Ali, Ally, Emily and so many others that I would still consider my friends.

It was the year we got to change classes every 45 minutes. This was a tough change for me and my classmates but I would say we handled it well. We learned about a ton of new things that I have never heard about. It really extended my knowledge of different things. This is the first year that we had to try out for sports and was a lot of fun when we brought the best in the school together to try and win a city county. We came close in Fifth grade basketball but fell short of our goal. In Science we learned about rocks and minerals and in Social studies about American History. In sixth grade was the first year I had Mrs. kelly and this where Mary Queen really takes off in a religious standpoint in the classroom. She taught us so many thing about our faith and how to build good character. We went to St. Patricks center and really learned about how people have it in our country. Not everybody had it as good as us. We learned about the bones in the human body and the dynasties in China. We learned a lot about English and Literature in Mrs. Ream’s class. Our home room was one of the best I've ever had and we had a good time. We won city County for baseball this year and was a great way to cap of my sixth grade year at

From first grade to fifth grade, I was happy and energetic. I made best friends that I never thought I would lose and I liked them all. I grew close to my teachers and I got to go on field trips. I never cared about what others thought about me or said about me. The lesson that I took from grade school is that teachers aren’t as bad as people think and that I should’ve cherished every minute of being young.

Then school started and I had the best teacher ever named Mrs. Koledo. She was very genial and she made moving to a new school much easier, but I felt a little barron. Later that day, some girls came up to hang out and show me around and I relaxed a little. I made even more friends later too and felt like I was merging with others.

In kindergarten I had the best teachers in the world. Mrs. Madden and Ms. Belcher I will never forget those two. It was my first day at Hodges Elementary I cried my butt off but they made me feel welcome anyway. Ms. Belcher is now what we call an old family friend whenever I need her she's always there even when I don't half of the time. I can always count on her for anything. Also in elementary school I found my best friend for life. While Middle School on the other hand wasn't such a walk in the park for me. Throughout elementary I was with the people that I had known for years but walking into middle school was nothing like those days. I was now surrounded by kids that I had never seen before from different middle schools throughout the district. Yeah I had many rough days but I seem to make it through with the help of my family and friends. Sixth grade what's the hardest year for me because my best friend left to stay with her dad in Alabama but she returned my seventh grade

Many people can look at me and not really know what I have been through. Women all over have the same struggle as I do and slowly but surely progress is being made. The first day I met him was what I thought was a great day. I was employed, young, and carefree. We had only gotten to know each other over a weeks time, but we were stuck like glue. It was a young love, a new love. After two weeks it went from seeing each other everyday, to me visiting him twice a week, behind a thick glass pane. The jail was a cold and unfriendly place. But I was there through thick and thin. After a year of truly getting to know each other he was back out in the world, with me. At first everything was fun and upbeat, but then I learned I was pregnant. It was no big deal, we planned it. We were expecting and although it was my first, it was his second. My pregnancy was filled with ups and downs. More ups than downs though. Then our baby girl was born. I won the coin toss so I got to name her. Our first babygirl, I know I was proud.
