Bridget's POV

It's the end of the long summer holidays and it's back to school from tomorrow.  Yes! Finally I will be in high school!! I've been waiting for this since like forever  (which was 2 months ago). This will be my first time attending a private school, not just any private school but a Catholic high school. St Therese College. Never heard of it so I don't know what to expect. It was sad saying goodbye to all of my primary school friends. We all parted ways. Anyway new year, new me,new beginnings.

*sigh * I'm packing my school bag and I feel as if I'm forgetting something.  Pencil case check. Books check. Files check. Tomorrow is a big day and I don't want to forget anything. My uniform is already ironed. Red skirt, white blouse and a black blazer. Then a dreaded thought entered my mind. What if I don't fit in? I've heard a lot of scary stories about high school. It's either you are the bullyer or the bullyee (I doubt those are even real words). Nonetheless I get a sick feeling in my tummy. How am I going to face school time? My thoughts are interrupted by my mother calling me, it's time for dinner.

I leave my room and run down the stairs. Everyone is already at the dinner table. My parents, little sister and brother and mu two older brothers. We say grace and everyone digs in. My mum makes the best food ever,even though we have our differences I have to give her credit for making such a delicious meal. As always I'm the one who does all the washing. It's annoying being the middle child, sometimes you get neglected and other times you get  blamed for everything  (which happens a lot).

Once I was done with the washing I head up to my room. It's not exactly my room alone because I share it with my younger sister Danielle. She does get on my nerves sometime but she has her moments when she's a sweetheart. I lay on my bed and my mind drifts far away. I think of tomorrow and what to expect. Is high school really for me? Will I still be a straight A student? Will i even survive day one? But more importantly will I make friends? With all those thoughts in my head I end up falling asleep...
