Recommended: Teacher and students relationship

My first 3 months in the community were so boring, because I needed to stay inside our house and take care of my baby sister while my mom and dad were working. Now that the school year was about to start, I felt so excited to have new friends. I hope that this school year would not be bad as I think it would be. It was my first year at Macrovan High School in Smilven, England, a spacious Catholic school. I look around me and I see everyone busy doing something with a purpose. I don’t know anyone, I feel so lost and insignificant. This new school has 3 buildings. All I have right now with me is a timetable to guide me through this massive campus. My first class is in the east wing and I’m near the west wing. I have five minutes to get there. I knew that today would be a nerve-racking day. As I ran through the yard trying not to trip I noticed that a lot of trees surrounded the school, and they almost seemed non-existent to the people shuffling by. As I walked through the corridors, I felt as though I was walking through a maze. The students seemed to be very friendly and cheerful like they almost knew each other. They were like a community and I was an outsider looking in. My name is Lauren De Silva and I just moved here from California with my family three months ago because my dad had a job transfer. This town seems to be bigger than the town I used to live in. Back to my story, many people say that I look prettier with my hair down. But I always loved to tie my hair up because it is pretty long and dark brown hair with some highlights. I’m tall but not too tall, about 5 feet. I wore glasses, which made others perceive me as a geeky student who only cared about grades. All my things with me were pink because it is my favorite co... ... middle of paper ... ...and a knight that evening. A few days later, he asked me out with a beautiful poster. It said "Will you be my girlfriend and stay forever?" The poster also had some heart shaped sticky notes where he wrote everything he liked about me as well as the good things that happened between us. He said that he started writing these sticky notes when we first met each other. It was the sweetest thing anyone had ever done for me and now, our relationship is going strong. We have been dating for three years and we are now engaged. My parents also knew about our relationship and advised us to finish college first before settling together. When I looked back at the past, I never imagined we would end up together. I always used to think that guys like him would never like, or date someone like me, but here I am today, the luckiest girl in the world to have Jonathan Lemuel Garcia.

  • Coming To America

    870 Words  | 2 Pages

    Few weeks after I got here in the United States of America, I finally started my life as an American student. My heart was beating so fast as if it was being played as drums heavily. I was panting quite ponderously, do not know what to expect. I closed my eyes as I carefully stepped outside my car, and then finally opened my eyes. It surprised me how enormous my new high school is. Not to mention, how inappropriate our school building seem to be. The architect of my new high school decided that it would be appropriate to create a phallic shaped school for high school students. Ironic, I thought. I disregarded the fact for a mere second, as I carefully entered my new school. Everything felt weird. People here were so different I thought. I felt as if I was in a box of crayon. Everyone’s color seems to vary from one another. It was such a diverse place. From blonde hair blue eyed people, to black hair slanted eye Asians, to big black afro haired, voluptuous lips Africans. “Interesting”, I whispered. I waltzed in towards my new classroom as I shyly entered...

  • The Vanishing Experience: My First Experience Of College

    790 Words  | 2 Pages

    Seven thirty in the morning, confused, and gazing at my first experience of college I had no idea what this semester would have in store for me. Within the second story of Vawter Hall about fifty to a hundred students are crowding the hall awaiting the arrival of their professors. I was no different; unlike these other chatty energetic individuals I was alone, and desperate to get this first day over with. At eight o’clock bells chime through the building and the students have now dwindled down to those who I will later come to know as classmates and those few who had overslept on the first day. Eight fifteen, the little crowd starts to stir; the professor has still yet to arrive. Around eight twenty a woman with short cut hair arrives in a hurried manner, clearly upset to have arrived after her students. However, to her surprise, and those of her students, the door was

  • Descriptive Essay About My First Kiss

    Then he asked me if I had ever been kissed, this sent me into a near heart attack mode. I admitted that I hadn’t been kissed before. Then boy in front of me, the one who always held confidence, who knew so much of himself so well prior to those who do that are much older than we, blushed and apologized sincerely for not having been a better person to me and not having something to offer me this day. He looked back up at me with confidence and more love in his eyes that I had ever seen at the time. And then, Jordan softly placed his hand behind my neck, not intimately or anything like that, but in a more comforting way, moving my hair behind my shoulder and said, “If I can offer you anything special, a small gift in a small way,” and he kind of laughed at that, his voice softened again and he finished, “If you’ll let me, I’ll give you your first kiss.” The shock in my eyes must have been apparent, of course no one had ever said anything so romantic to me in my whole life (Again, I just turned fourteen), I nodded –a huge blush gracing my face as well as much as
