New School Problems

         Ugh! First day at my new school rush this morning. To make matters worse. I was late to class!

         First let me explain. My names Samantha. I just moved to Texas leaving all my friends in Louisiana. Anyway I walk in very nervous, with sweaty hands and jelly legs. I wobble in 15 minutes late, with my mom by my side. Just her standing there makes me more embarrassed. Before I spoke I wait until the teacher is done introducing me. I look around at the groups of kids at the tables. There’s a group that’s mostly girls wearing pretty clothes. Then I see normal kids I think of sitting with. Then there’s a girl sitting at a table all alone 

In the middle of my thoughts I get interrupted by the teacher. She made me say hi and choose a seat. I choose the one next to the girl all alone, even though a girl at the other table made a gesture for me to sit with her.

            The girl I sat with has black hair and black rim glasses. She looks very sweet and kind.

Her and i don’t look too different but we don’t look too similar either. I have brown hair and wearing glasses. She looks like she studies every night and will become class president. I lean over and quietly ask for her name. She finishes writing her paper before she answers,”My name is Karrie.”

she says. One of the girls from the other table walks over and looks at me sweetly but turns stern when she looks at Karrie.

              Then she says “Hello my name is Kennedy.” “Oh hi!” I reply. Kennedy has blonde hair and is wearing a pretty sundress. A few times she tries to get me to sit with her. “Karrie you know the rules!” she says meanly. Still I decline. Her attitude towards me changes and she stomps away like a little girl. Suddenly she comes back is being rude to me but I didn’t listen. She goes back to her table again and I assume they were talking about me as they were laughing and pointing.
               I ignored it and talked to Karrie more. We have a lot in common actually and I ended up having a great first day at my new school.
