7:00 the alarm by my bed read. It was early but first impressions are always the last impressions. I didn't want to make it to school late after all it was my first day. Mum and Dad had to move to New York after dad got promoted so, I had to tag along. I've always wanted to come to New York but now since I'm here, I'm feel so nervous.

I got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom. I had picked my outfit yesterday and I was really excited to put it on! I walked towards the bath tub and removed my pyjamas, I started the shower and made the water warm. I stepped inside and let the warm water soothe my nerves. It was my first day at school in New York, I kept thinking about it, hoping that I won't mess it up. The water flowed through my hair and down my skin. My morning shower was the only place I could ever think. I got out of the shower and dried myself. I grabbed the hair dryer from the cupboard and dried my hair.

Once I was completely dry, I put on my skinny jeans and my lace top. I felt so comfortable in this outfit and I knew that this was the perfect thing to wear today. I walked over the the full length mirror in my room and picked up my phone. I took a picture of my outfit in the mirror and Snapchatted it to my best friend back home, Savannah. She replied within a second saying, " You look gorgeous babe! Have a great first day at school!" She's always been that one person I knew I could talk to when I felt down or anxious. I rolled my hair up into a bun and curled the loose strands.

I walked downstairs but I guess I was too late. Mum and Dad had already left for work. Sometimes I wondered whether they forgot that I existed but looking at the bright side, I had all the privacy I ever needed. I poured myself a glass of orange juice from the fridge and made myself a Nutella sandwich, My Favourite!

It was 7:45 and I knew I had to hurry up! School starts at 8:00 and the bus would be here soon. I finished my breakfast and grabbed my bag from the floor. Before leaving, I checked myself in the mirror by the door and realised that I'd forgotten to put on mascara and lip gloss! I quickly swiped on some mascara and applied some lip gloss. I picked up the keys from the plate under the mirror and made my way to the door. This is it, I realised. My first day in school in NYC!

The bus ride was silent. People were too busy to realise that a new girl had joined or maybe they were used to it. Once I got to school, I went straight to the office to fill up my form and get help to find my class. On the way to class, I got a few smiles, people here seemed really friendly!

Our classroom was pretty big, the floor was carpeted and there were desks arranged neatly across the room. People were still piling into class making it so noisy.

Around 15 minutes later, our teacher walked into class and introduced herself as Mrs. Miller. She spoke to the class and eventually noticed me. She made me come up and introduce myself. I slowly walked over to her in the front and was about to begin introducing myself and when I looked up, nothing came out of my mouth. He sat there, in the last row. His eyes were mysterious and his hair, it was the most lovely shade of brown. He was talking to another boy who was sitting next to him. I guess he realised that I was standing in front about to say something because he looked up at me and I froze. Our eyes met and I couldn't tear them away from him. He smiled and I melted.
