As I pulled open the door to
the school, I was hit by a burst of air conditioned cold air.
At any other time I would have found it sweet and refreshing,
but on this specific day it only made me shiver. I stepped
inside.
Gazing around at the interior of the school, it was just like
I remembered. In this hallway, the main corridor, trophies
from various sports and pictures of star athletes lined the
walls; the walls themselves were bright with the colors
yellow and blue, the school’s spirit colors. Somehow I
found myself walking the route to class subconsciously, so
well did I know the school. This time, though, I knew about
this school. I knew what people from here were like. And you
could bet that I wouldn’t fall for any of their crap
again.
I slowed my walking so that I would not be early. The less
time I had to sit alone at my desk, the better. Being not
exactly outgoing and purposefully placing myself in a class
where I knew no one had not been my wisest move. However, in
the amazing prospect of learning to drive, I had not thought
about that at all. So here I was, inching my way to the
beginning of a long two week session of class.
Suddenly my thoughts changed direction. What had Jean meant
by carpool? Surely I would have remembered if mother had
told me about a carpool, right? I asked myself. I
certainly couldn’t remember it. Then again, as I looked
down at myself, I couldn’t even remember how I had come
to be in these clothes this morning. I was in my oldest pair
of jean shorts, which had over time grown tighter and shorter
any of my other pairs, and my sister’s thin grey
t-shirt (with the word “whatever” written on it
in large bold letters) over a white lace tank top I had
received from my friend Emmy for my last birthday. I could
care less about my reputation this year.
Lost in thought, I hardly noticed that I had reached my
classroom. I hardly noticed that I pulled the door open and
was fully aware of where I was when I found myself standing
in front of a nearly filled classroom. Most unfortunately,
most eyes were on me.
