First Day of School
so today was the first day of school. but it was kind of fake school i guess because it was only the freshmen and juniors, and it was a weird schedule, and a 1:20 dismissal. but still, first day back in those hallways, first time back in that blue skirt and heavy knee socks. I really don't feel at home anywhere else more than at Holy Angels. Sure, I don't have a whole lot of friends, and I'm not that social. Sure, the work sucks, and the teachers can get so condescending and unfair, and the girls can be so bitchy, but i just don't feel like I'm doing anything with my life unless I'm at school. I guess it's partly because i don't really know what to do, or what to be, so i have to just learn what I'm supposed to be. And if I'm not doing anything important with my life, i might as well learn. And it isn't just that i love to learn. I'm not that much of a dork. It's just everything about the school year. There's lunch time and frees with your friends. Plays and choirs, and Latin grammar. There's dances and parties Friday nights. And aside from school related things, theres everything that happens in those 10 months. Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Years. Not to mention hoodie weather. And snow. I love snow. I really do. Its one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
Fall is most definitely my favorite holidays. I'm telling you, the year starts in september, not january. I really want to go to ramapo mountain this fall. cindy said it's so pretty with the leaves changing colors. I've really only been there in the summer.
But anyway, the most magical part of the first week of school? The perfect blend of newness and familiarity. Almost like going to the past, and having a change to start over. And I've decided that this year is going to be different from last year. Or at least try to stay positive as long as possible. Last year doesn't matter. I'm starting all over. New locker, new homeroom, new books, new year. Another change around. I'm going to have fun. I'm going to laugh, and run, and smile, and read, and be.
