would be the new kid. The town I grew up in had one broken street of small family shops and restaurants. The school I went to had one hallway of classes taught by teachers I knew by first name. The house I lived in had one neighbor who lived a mile down the road, with nothing else but corn on either side. Then suddenly, it seemed like my life changed in an instant. Two years ago, I had to leave my hometown, say goodbye to the house I grew up in, and worst of all, start a new school in the middle
My legs started to tremble as I took my first step into the noisy classroom. The moment I walked in the entire class immediately became extremely quiet. First day of new school is always the hardest, but for me it was a bit different; it wasn’t only a new school but was also a new language a, new country, different races and a total different environment. I couldn’t even say a sentence properly in English, but the worst of it all was the people surrounding me had made me feel like I didn’t exist
It was another hot day in the month of August. As I gingerly stepped out of the baby blue Toyota Avalon, my forehead was already forming little droplets of sweat. But I wasn’t perspiring because of the humidity levels it was for the fact that I was about to start my first day at a new school. It’s an intimidating experience going to school with people you don’t know but it’s also worthwhile because we have the chance to make new friends. Anyway, as I stepped into the, “newly renovated,” building
I woke up to my alarm clock and mom banging on my door. The time is 7:50 and I am late for my first day to my new school. Unsure of what to do when I pull up to the school I ask my mom to move back to my old home. I walk into my new class with all eyes on me for being the new kid hoping the teacher seats me in the back of the classroom for a quick getaway when the bell rings. Unfortunately I was seated dead center, with an icebreaker activity. I met a new friend, his name was Augustine. Tall and
This very day was my first day in my new school and the first time I had the chance to meet new events. I woke up at six in the morning and my mom called a cab beforehand. The passenger seat was occupied by my weight and my backpack. I watched the outside setting through the cab’s window. Thoughts like “ugh, how am I going to make friends?” and “What will people here think of me?” keep swirling up in my mind. As the cab approached the school, my heart flutters like a butterfly on the verge of escaping
memory of each person about school, it was something that very difficult and pleasure, especially the first day of school. My family came to the U.S in my freshmen year, the first day of school on the land of free left me a lot of memories about school, the feelings , people and classes. The first day of school for me was messed up between the feelings, it’s because everything was new to me, there were many things that surprised and challenged me in the first day of school. The
New life in a new country For many people, coming to school the first day always has been an exciting experience and like a little adventure. That very first day of school will become a significant day in everyone life, a day to celebrate. I had my first day of school too; I couldn’t remember all the details; but somehow, I can still feel the excitement and curiosity that I had at the time. It would be impossible for anyone to travel back in time to look back on their first day of school. But, I
something new, a fresh start. Despite being this, it seemed cold and trying, something that sent shivers down my spine. Mixed emotions of uncertainty and optimism had filled my first day of middle school; and as my final year is drawing to a close, I realize that this place-this transitional time in my life- is something that I never want to leave. I created a home away from home, and a family, over the short three years spent learning here. Each school year, from first to concluding, brought new experiences
when I was in elementary school where I had no worries and everyone got along with everyone. Everything was almost perfect from my first day of kindergarten to my last day of fifth grade. I grew up with all of the same people throughout my first six years of school; all of us were just like a family. As my grade school years began to near the end, I had come to the conclusion that I was going to start somewhere new. On my last day of fifth grade, I said farewell to all of my best friends at Cortland
started my first day at Overbrook High School. Overbrook was never my first choice of high school to attend out Of middle school but my sister was going to elementary school right down the street and due to the violence in that neighborhood, I, and my mom wanted to keep her safe and let her know she was safe at all times. My first day made it seem as if it was a great school I met the superintendent the mayor and a state representative all on my first day. I didn’t have any classes that day so I couldn’t
