I officially hate high school. My first class of the day was the best class in the world. I absolutely adored my teacher, and she didn't make me fall asleep in class.
Science for me, was already a boring class. Ms. Leear made it even more boring. Even her name was boring, Leear. Who names their kid Leear? God I hated this class, it was the first day and my head already starts to roll back from boredom.
I kept glancing at the rest of the class, seeing who was in my class and if I recognized anyone from middle school.
I didn't know anyone and I didn't sit next to anyone either. I sit all the way in the back corner alone. Everyone knew everyone, I felt like an outsider.
So like the creep I am, I just watched and listened to everyone's conversation.
I waited and waited until second period finally rolled around. Now this was a class I was excited for.
Music class. Something that I was actually good at. I was really excited for music because hey, this was where I excelled.
Music class was, to say the least, crowded. It was filled with all different types of people. There were the two giggly best friends in the corner, the guys who thought they were the shit, the girl who knew she was better than everybody else, and the rest were normal people.
Yeah yeah, I know I'm a judgemental person, but in this society, to judge is integrated into people's minds. I'm not an exception to that. I also knew for a fact that as much as I was judging these people, everytime they looked at me or someone else they'd do the same.
The bell finally rang but students were still bubbling in. The girl who sat next to me, man she had the confidence of a thousand people. I kinda liked it.
"Em! Em! EM! HI!" Before I knew it, I was tackled by a little bundle of human.
" Hey Jess, how're you doing? You seem a little out of breath from running huh?" The poor girl was panting from running to hug me. Man, it was nice to see a familiar face. Jessie was one of my bestest friends ever since I was young, it was nice to see her.
I really liked the teacher too, Mrs. Faire was exactly what you'd expect from a music teacher. She was bubbly and she looked like she was in love with what she was doing.
For our first assignment, the class had been split up into three groups and we were all assigned different musical instruments. Mostly percussion instruments, and the class played a game.
This was my favourite class so far. I know it was only the second period but still, I loved this class. I didn't want it to end.
Lunch was next. I was dreading this, I didn't know where to find Penny and I sure as hell didn't want to see everyone with friends while we ate alone.
"So, how're your classes?" I asked Pen through a mouthful of sandwich. A damn delicious sandwich might I add, my mom had the hands of a goddess, god this sandwich was good.
"I don't know, they were okay."
It was really hard to keep up a conversation with Pen because it was always one sided. She never really asked me anything, but I was used to it. That's just the kind of person Penny was.
"My classes were okay, I really like my music class. Hey did I mention that Jess is in my music class?"
"You mean Jessica from last year?"
"Yea her! The short one, talks a lot, really smart,"
"She goes here? I thought she went somewhere else. What do you have after lunch?"
"I have art anddddddd ew gym," I said while checking my schedule. "Did you make any friends?"
"Yea one girl, her name is Erika. Oh yea, she really wants to hang out with us. I told her about you and I think she likes you."
I stopped mid chew, "You told her about me?" I said with my mouth completely full.
Penny smacked me, " Don't chew with your mouth full, that's gross Em. And yea I told her about you. I just said how you're really nice and stuff and how we've been best friends for so long."
My heart melted with love for Penny, she was so sweet sometimes! I was also excited to meet this Erika girl, I was surprised Penny made a friend so easily. She wasn't really the talkative friend.
" Yea yes shut up Em I know what you're thinking, and yes I can't believe it either, I actually made a friend!"
She was so happy, it made me happy.

Gym class zoomed by, and before I knew it I was walking to art class. The teacher hadn't opened the door yet so everyone gathered outside the door.
I was leaning against the wall when something caught my eye. It was the boy with the green hair. He had this cute maroon backpack on, which mind him was my favorite colour, which made him more appealing to me.
And then that was it. That short glimpse of him was all I had. I know I know I'm being all weird and acting like I'm in a movie. But come on, it couldn't be a coincidence. Noticing him not once but twice in one day? That didn't mean nothing.
Art class was fun, I liked my teacher and I liked my class. It was my second favourite class.
The teacher asked us to sketch something, anything that came to mind. Honestly though, the only thing on my mind was a maroon backpack and I wasn't going to draw that.
I decided to draw a cat because they were just so adorable, but I ended up colouring it red. I'm so crazy, I really can't get this kid out of my mind.
After school, I was telling Penny about him.
"Hey you know that guy from the. Is this morning?"
"You mean the one you were shamelessly staring at with your mouth open? Yea what about him?"
"I keep seeing him everywhere, it's really weird. Did you notice his hair? I really like it, it's so bold you know?"
"Em, you are so so crazy. You really are caught up on this guy huh? Who knows maybe you'll end up his sister in law after I marry him," she said while poking me.
" Shut up you're such a jerk." It secretly scared me. Man if this was how I was gonna be with this boy I've seen twice, how will I act with an actual crush?
I was worried about highschool. I was being a typical teenage girl scared about her love life.
My first day was going somewhat okay, but I was gonna go crazy thinking about maroon backpacks.
Highschool really will end up being the death of me, just like everyone said it would be.
