It’s That Time AGAIN! Twenty after six. Ten more minutes and I’ll get up. I can’t wait to get to school and see everyone again. I wonder how their summers were. Well, time to get up and see what’s in the kitchen to eat. Oh no! It’s getting late and I still haven’t decided what to wear or how to do my hair! I can’t be late on the first day. That darn alarm clock — only 6:35. Hey, I'm really not in the mood to get up now. School, well, it shouldn't be that bad. Maybe I'll meet some nice girls, but anything will be better than this soggy cereal. There! At least this shirt looks good with these jeans. Now, what shoes should I wear? These spikes are going to kill me by third period so I guess I’ll wear these low ones. Yuch! What am I going to do with this hair? What a mess! Finally, now it looks half- way decent. One last thing to do — my makeup. Okay — finished seven fifteen — I’ve got five minutes to get to the bus-stop. Better get going. At least I don't have to rush for the bus. Driving is really good; there are no more hassles for rides at all. Well, I guess I should get dressed and out of here. Here comes the bus already. I can’t believe how nice everyone looks today, but I guess tomorrow we’ll be back to normal. There will be a lot of new kids at school, now that we have both ninth and tenth graders. But no matter what, I'll just have to make the most of it. Well, this place doesn’t look any different except for some new paint here and there. There’s Mary and Tommy — I guess they’re still going out. There’s the gang, and Frank is with them, too. Wow, did he change! Oh no, there goes the bell for homeroom. I guess I’ll have to see them later. Hey, look at what we have here. Laura really looks great! I wonder what she did this summer. She definitely had to spend most of her time at the beach. What a tan! Here comes trouble — my schedule. I don’t believe this! I got the same social studies teacher again. But at least I got the English teacher I wanted. I guess the rest of the teachers are okay, too. I even got eighth perioa free. These teachers are pretty much what I expected, but the free periods just aren't good. Who'll be free second and eighth? No one, that's for sure. I didn’t think that the halls would be this crowded. I don't like it too much. Today, we have that regular first day stuff — notebooks to get and routines to learn. Thank goodness! It’s almost two o’clock already. There’s Frank; he’s got eighth free, too. I might as well go over and talk to him. Hello Laura! It's great to see you. How was your sum- mer? Okay, how was yours? I see you have eighth free, too. How are your teachers? Mine are all right. Oh, the bell. Too bad we didn't see each other earlier. Are you going home now? Yeah, I have to go buy notebooks and stuff. I guess I’ll see you tomorrow. Okay, see you then! Bye! Bye!
