Today was my very first day of high school. It’s really hard to believe. My mom and brother waved to me as I walked up to the fence which led to the school. As I walked down the path to the door of the fence, my sides brushed against the branches of the pine trees. I felt like I was walking through the corn field in “Field of Dreams,” into a new life. As I walked up to those dark, ominous doors of the high school, I never wanted so much to turn around and run back to my mother. But I was brave, and walked through those doors.
I felt so small and forgotten walking through the crowd of upperclassmen. At first, it was scary, but slowly the faces in my classes looked more familiar. I think I like high school.
When I got home, my mom said she cried her eyes out after I left for school.
