I wake up to the sound of my phone alarm playing a peaceful tune. Normally I would over sleep to the sweet piano melody of my alarm but to be truthfully honest, I've been awake for hours. Today was the first day of my new life at my new school and I was super nervous.
I picked up my phone to turn of my alarm and read the time in my head.

6:00 A.M.

I sat up in my bed trying to wake myself up and take on everything that had happened the past few days. Just two days ago, I was sitting in my grandmothers house in the rural town I once called home. Now I'm in a new city and in a small stuffy apartment. Actually it was kind a cute. It had a kitchen, bathroom, a small living room, and a tiny bedroom. My bedroom was pretty empty besides the un-opened boxes sitting in the corner. All I had was my wooden desk, my bed that had my favorite bunny stuffed animal, and a small night stand that was next to my bed. Of course I had a couple of room accessories but no matter how much I tried to adjust it to look like my room back at home, it wasn't the same.

The light blue curtains had blocked out any light form entering my room but I noticed some sunlight peeked through the curtain that was waiting to be opened. The light hit the foot of my bed and I suddenly felt homesick. Being along in a big city was terrifying to me. I felt like crying remembering my grandma and what made it worse was the photo of my mom which stood next to my bed on the night stand. I sighed and I knew I couldn't stay like this. My mom was the toughest person I knew and she always told me to stay positive.

"Don't worry mom. I'll be okay! It's gonna be a good day"

I said through my glassy eyes trying to convince myself that I wasn't scared. I stood up from my bed and finally got up and headed to the bathroom. I kept watch of the time knowing school started in about an hour. I hopped into the shower and did my face care and brush my teeth. Once I got out, I did the rest of my skin care. You know, the usual moisturizer and sunscreen. After that I put in my contacts. Then I put light make up. I don't normally do a lot but I wanted to look presentable today. I did a light coat of mascara, a bit of concealer, a dab of blush and finally a lip tint that match my natural lip color. I let my hair air dry as I stepped out in my towel and saw my uniform hanging my full size mirror. I dreaded putting it on but it was kind cute. The skirt was a plaid dark forest green color and the top was a regular white button down dress shirt. The sweater was a beige color that I contemplated on wearing since it was late spring. I decided not to tuck it in because I like a oversize look anyways. The last accessory was the green bow tie. I loosely tied it and looked at myself. I didn't look bad, it just wasn't my regular uniform. I let my hair fall into my shoulders. I put a green scrunchie on my wrist, and headed out my room. I walked to front door not even glancing at the kitchen. I was too nervous to eat anyways. But then I remembered yesterday during my trip to the convenience store, I had bought rice balls. I quickly took them out of the fridge and place them in my backpack. put on my black high top converse and grabbed my backpack. I unlocked my front door and opened it ready to head out the door. But before I left, I turn my head to look at my empty living room.

"I'll be back soon okay?"

I spoke softly to myself and smiled as if waiting for a response. Then I remembered I'm on my own now. I then finally walked out and locked my front door and mentally preparing myself for school.

-Time Skip-

I'm not gonna lie, that 20 minute walk to school felt like hours. I had been admiring the scenery all the way here. The busy city and the hundreds of pedestrians walking by. The sound of traffic and cars honking their horns. The best part were the cherry blososms that have been blooming. Their petals flowing everywhere and tangling in my hair. I felt at ease. I mean, I felt okay back at the apartment. I felt pretty composed earlier but standing in front of the school gates made my legs feel like jelly and I felt a chill down my spine. The school was huge! It was simple designed building but it seems to have 4 floor and a separate large building that was disconnected from the main one.
