"Wow, grade 12 already!" Amber's mom nudged her elbow as they sat in their silver mini-van headed to Amber's first day of school.
"Yeah, I hope I can make some friends" Amber turned her head to look at the towering buildings of Toronto.
"As pretty as you are, you should have tons of friends before the first period is through!" Amber's mom laughed.
"I doubt it, Alan and Brent are going to Eastdale too."
"Oh Amber, this is high school, you don't have to worry about petty little comments that happened in that old school of yours!" Amber's mom just finished her sentence as she pulled into the high school' sparking lot. "Here we are! All set?" Amber stepped out of the car and nodded.
Amber turned around as her mom pulled out of the drive. She looked up at the building, unaware of the swarm of people filing into the front entrance to register. Amber pulled her lavender Jansport backpack up on her shoulder as she walked towards the entrance. "Well, here we go."
