Personal Narrative: Christian Boarding School

For the next three days, I had managed to pretty much cover myself and stay out of any sort of trouble. I didn 't bother in talking with Justin either, I decided to give him his space and spent most of my time with either Vic or his group of friends. The thought of living here for however long was starting to settle in, but there was one thing I still hadn 't got on board with.

Sunday; worship day they call it.

I assumed it was basically the same thing as church, so I instantly began dreading all of it. I dropped my religious beliefs a long time ago, and I didn 't appreciate people trying to brainwash me back into believing in a God. Then again, I guess I should 've suspected this to happen. I am, after all, in a Christian boarding school.

We went up the half steps towards the railing, stopping right before that. I noticed two large doors, similar to the ones outside. They opened as Vic and I walked inside. My eyes widened at what was before me.

Aisles and aisles on pews filled the mesmerizing room. I hadn 't seen such a massive room in my entire life. At the front of all the pews stood a large stage which had a slim hallway to the right of it which led to the restrooms and most likely the room Mike had spoken about. An altar was in the middle of the stage as a piano sat on the left side and a large projector screen hung on the wall.

Vic led me through a small crowd of people before making me sit in one of the very back pews. I watched as Vic put his feet on the back of the pew in front of us, making me smile slyly. Mike, Jaime, and Tony came barging in about ten minutes later, squeezing in with us. I watched as more and more people crowded in, taking seats in various places. A long red headed girl walked past us, smiling at Vic brightly who smirked at her. I noticed her cheeks go a light shade of pink as she continued up the aisle to a spot with a

"Anyway, guys," Mike started up again, catching all of our attention. "I was thinking we could all walk there to go to the bathroom, but not literally. One by one, we could go up there and meet on the other side of the door. I 'll go first, then Jaime, Tony, Vic, and then you Kellin." He explained thoroughly as all of us listened intently. We all nodded in agreement before I heard the piano being played. As the piano player slowed down, I noticed a minister enter the somewhat church, standing in front of a stand. Two teachers appeared, one of them walking towards the boys side of the room while the other went to the girls. This must be attendance.

Sure enough, it was just that. I listened as both of the teachers called out student 's names. Everyone was shouting present so loudly I felt as if I was about to get a headache. I spoke as well when my name was called, just not quite as loud as everyone else. Eventually the list ended and the piano picked up again.

I chuckled as everyone stood up, looking at the minister who smiled. Vic sighed and rolled his eyes, obviously already bored. Everyone sat down again, and Mike wasted no time squeezing past us.

"Count a minute before leaving," He spoke to Jaime. "After that, Tony, count to two minutes, and Vic to three. Kellin, count only one minute." Mike continued very quickly, not giving me any time to catch up to his words. All of us nodded, and Mike was off. We watched which door had been opened and nodded to one
