That Winter

That Winter 2

I have lived in New York for about 9 years. Now I'm living in a small village called Holmes Chapel. I'm going to enroll in a public high school tomorrow. I'm a little worried about making new friends , since I'm still a little shy I'm not that great with first impressions. Because most people in high school already made their groups of friends they probably won't include anyone else. It's pretty much set in stone or so they say. It is the same everywhere , I really mean everywhere, in churches, schools, college, even in the work force.  

Enough of that .... Let me tell you about myself. My name is Christen Hamins. I have never kissed or had "sex" ( I will wait till I'm married) and never had a boyfriend. I love to read and write any type of genre of story. I love the cold seasons such as fall and winter. My favorite type of candy is twizzlers. (don't make fun of me because I like twizzlers) I also love listening to music , sweet and soft music . Some times pop if I'm in a good mood. I have a younger sister , her name is Ella Hamins but we call her Efy. My father is a doctor and my mother is a business woman and is CEO of her own company.Her company decided to expand in England and are starting here, in Holmes.The company is going to open new frozen yogurt stored and a cafes in Holmes . It's just a mini project to see if it's actually successful so it may take 2 or more years for there to be actual results. My family building a very large house . I don't see why we need to build a 3 stories house when theres only 4 people living in this family? You know moms, they always have to brag and gossip of everything. I think shes only building the house that big to top of her sisters house it's 2 stories high with a garden and a pool in the back .  

School starts the next day.I'll just put on a sweater and a skirt with leggings with some flats or boots. I don't want to look to formal for first day of school. 

Next day. 

Beep! Beep! Beep! 

"Ahhhgrhh!"  

I groaned out loud. I look at the time and it's already 7:30 A.M .  

"Crap!" 

I yelled as I rushed to brush my teeth and wash my face . I pull on my tights and my skirt and pull over my sweater. I quickly do my hair in a Dutch Braid . I run down and quickly scavenge the fridge for the yogurt. Grab that and my bag. 

"I'm going to school! See you Efy! Mom!Dad!Oh! I'm taking the scoter to school ! Bye !"  

I yelled on my way out. Note to self ; be sure to be on time and no in a rush for the first day of school.  

I start up the scoter and ride my way to school. 

Wow, first day of school and I'm already late, it's 8:10 A.M. and I have to be there by 8:00 A.M. Great...... 

It is what it is. 

I drive up to the school and lock my ride in one of the poles for bikes.  

I check the time ! Shit! Its 8:20!  

I enter the office and I'm greeted to a woman that's in her late 30s typing on her keyboard. She doesn't even look up to great my face or to even acknowledge my presences, she just keeps on typing on her keyboard.  

Tap after tap , I had to cough loud enough to get her out of her trance.  

"Excuse me, but I'm the transfer student here and I would like to know what my timetable is?" 

I asked a polity as I could. She looks up at me. (Finally) 

"What's your name?" 

She says but continued to keep typing. 

"Its Christen Hamins......" 

I say as if it were a question. 

"Oh ! Yes, the transfer student! Let me make you a copy of your timetable"
