Blood in the Water

Last First Day

I woke up to the sound of my alarm and the smell of Connor's cologne.

"Happy last first day," I yelled.

      I sat up and got ready. My eyes stung from how early it was. I wore my cutest outfit, a jean skirt, and a white top. It was a little too cold outside for it, but who cared if it was cute? I did some makeup and curled my hair. I ate a hardy breakfast and grabbed my favorite energy drink, an amino lean berry elixir. Connor and I hopped in the car. This year is going to be the best one yet. I got there and walked my new schedule.

Fortunately, I had Connor in a class, AP government. Lydia and Karly were in my honors English. Lucas and Drew were in my AP bio. I didn't have anyone in my Honors Calculus, which was probably for the best because I needed to focus. I didn't have any with Jackson or Vera which I was bummed about. I got all my credits out of the way so I only had four classes in the day. This year was going to be great. I got a job at a cute boutique near my house, where I will be working after classes. It's called Lovely Lace. I get paid fifteen dollars an hour. I needed to save up if I was going to Bama with Connor.

I was introduced to my new classes with new teachers. I was most excited about AP biology because I got my favorite teacher Mrs. Vartin. I also really want to go into the medical field so it will further my knowledge of the human body. I went from school to work and then home. It was a chill day which meant a chill year. My life was finally all the way together. The accident took everything from me but I have myself back. Senior year was about to be the best year of my life.
