Sophomore

My mother drove us to school with the windows rolled down. The sun was starting to rise, the sky a perfect,cloudless blue. The car screeched to a stop in front of the school's information center and my heart started pounding like crazy. I bid my mother goodbye and climbed out of the car. I made my way across the students and smiled at some of the familiar faces I knew. Excitement swept over me as I spotted Charlene together with my classmates from last year. By the time our teachers told us to form our line the sun was shinning down brightly on us. Beads of sweat started forming on my forehead and around my neck.I looked around and smiled to myself, it's the first day of school and I'm really excited to meet new friends. Summer is officially over which means it's back to school for us students. By the end of our little program inside St. Anne's Hall the feeling of happiness I had before started fading. I knew we would get re-sectioned, but I never thought I would be this sad. I've been so close to my classmates last year, they're like sister to me and it makes me sad not to be with some of them this year. As the day passed on I met new friends and things started falling into place for all of us. There were a lot of activities in stored for us that day and the atmosphere was so overwhelming I found myself enjoying our activities half way through our students hour. The day eventually came to an end and I found myself eager to go to school the next day. Second year doesn't seem so bad after all!
