Descriptive Essay: The First Day Of School

1205 Words5 Pages

The first day of school is supposed to be exciting, you should be a little bit nervous, but that 's normal. Butterflies flutter in your stomach, and what you 're going to wear is key. That 's what it 's supposed to be like. That 's if you 've gone to school with the kids in your district since preschool, or the school is so big that it doesn 't even matter. But when you 're a new kid in a small district, everyone notices. You might as well be wearing a sign, screaming "HEY I AM NEW HERE", plastered to your shirt.

    At 5:45 AM the alarm on my phone blared some generic default tone that I had never gotten around to changing. This was probably the earliest I’ve ever gotten up in my entire life. I groggily removed myself from the pile of blankets on the floor that I had been sleeping in and headed for the shower, brushed my teeth, washed my face and searched my near empty closet for something to wear on my first day of school. Although I was absolutely exhausted and there was yet to be any furniture in my room, I was thrilled to be transferring to Pattonville High School in midst of my junior year and living in a bigger house in a better community.

    I woke up early and put on the clothes that I had laid out from the night before. I went to the kitchen grabbed a Poptart and headed out the door to find the bus coming up my street. Walking onto the bus gave me a whiff of Expo Markers and and an overload of Axe cologne that I’m guessing an awkward teenage boy showered in. I sat on the hard, poorly cushioned seat next to a small girl with pigtails and a Doc Mcstuffins backpack. Man, this is my first day of being in the Middle School; first day of sixth grade, I thought to myself.

Even if teenagers go to bed earlier, their school start times are becoming more early as they advance through grades
