It was August 17 and my parents and I just moved to a new place, because our apartment was small and my old school ended in 4th grade. So when we moved to our new house I was scared because I didn’t know whether I had to change schools or not. The week went very fast, I got used to the house, neighbors and landmarks. During this week, my parents informed me that I was going to a new school. This made me happy and scared. I was happy because I was going to a new school and going to make new friends, yet I was scared because I was afraid I was going to be an outsider in middle school, and no one would want to be my friends. It was my first time in middle school. As I entered I felt as if I was one fish in an ocean, this made me suddenly shy.

  • Personal Narrative: Going Back To School

    611 Words  | 2 Pages

    Going back to school after summer was something I looked forward to. Seeing the friends I missed over the summer was something very cool. This past summer was by far my favorite. There was a party literally every night, I went to Florida to check out my future college, we went to Minnetonka on a friend's boat and much more. My favorite was going to the lake with everyone. We stayed out there all day and just hung out. Coming back to school was a huge transition. I had to change my sleep schedule from sleeping in until 11:30 AM to waking up at 6:00 AM. That was my toughest challenge excluding the need to begin a study habit during the weekdays. Studying is honestly my least favorite thing to do when there are so many other things I could be doing other than that. Overall the return to school was exciting for me considering it is Senior year, and we only have two semesters of school left! Time flies in High School and I never thought I would be here today!

  • Personal Narrative: My Transition To College

    My transition to college was successful, but it was nonetheless one of the most stressful times in my life. Unlike many of my peers at Saint Louis University, my rural high school experience did not truly prepare me for the academic rigors of college. Despite extensive preparation, I performed rather poorly on the first round of exams. While I didn’t fail any particular exam, my performance was seriously lacking. I knew that getting C’s on exams would not serve me well in the pursuit of my dream of becoming a physician. I remember feeling, for the first time in my life, that I was unintelligent and incompetent. I was also heavily fatigued from the excessive hours of studying, which I felt were necessary to reconcile the problem. I managed to

    It was a rainy first day of school. I had an uneasy feeling the night prior, and didn’t get much sleep. My body felt sluggish, and I looked like a train wreck. It was early still, so I sat on the couch waiting patiently. Everything was silent; the only sound I heard was the ticking of the clock. As I sat there, I expressed unhappy feelings about the move. I thought about how I didn’t say goodbye to a lot of my close friends. Staring back at the clock, it was 8:05 am, I was late. Hastily grabbing my backpack I bolted out of the front door. The heavy rain had died down slightly, but the winds were still raging on. As I turned the corner, I saw the school bus leaving. I stopped briefly, panting with my hands on my knees. I decided to walk to school, which was forty-five minutes away. Walking towards this huge daunting building, I felt overwhelmed. Everything felt so foreign, and I had no idea what uncharted

    I had never cried or not wanted to go to school. In the beginning, I was very shy and used to whisper everything in the teacher’s (Rosa) ears. I was very particular about keeping my footwear clean, while polishing shoes, I polished underneath too. My friends were artistic and were interested in art and music. In middle school, I had an amazing teacher. She was very friendly and helpful to all of us. My friends were really fun to hang out with and we clicked since the beginning. They shared the same interests with me like reading books, dancing, writing, etc. We used to bunk our art classes and play games in the class. I still talk to most of them, thanks to technology. The school once took us on a 5-day camping trip nearby and it was the best part of middle school. I loved the time spent with my friends, we shared so many secrets with each other.
