Starting something new is always tough. Like the first time you rode a bycicle and you kept falling off. Or when your parents brought you to the pool when your were 5 and you did'nt want to wear flowties anymore, so in the end you needed help to stay aflote. And even on your first day of school EVER, your mom got to stay and hold your hand as long as you wanted her. Now were moving on to some of the most difficult times of our lives and mommy cant be there to hold your hand.
Change... it sucks. Honestly why cant we just stay kids forever like Peter Pan? Then we would'nt have to face these tough times. Tomorow im going to the dreaded HIGH SCHOOL! I'm going to be picked up by my friend Jenni and were are going to ride the terrible minute to school in her mom's Ford Crossover . We made sure this could happen so we did'nt have to arrive alone and be totaly singled out by, well the rest of the school.
Today i checked and double checked my school supplies to make sure i had it all for tomorow. Don't want to look like an idiot in front of your new teacher's, now do we? I even pulled apart my room to find the, Perfect, outfit. Finally after half an hour i settled on some jeans and a long sleeved shirt. What? Its cold up here in Alberta Canada at this time of year. It snows almost every month!
How am I feeling? Well I can narrow it down to well, extreamly scared. Of coarse i could find much better words to decribe how scared i am, but i don't use that kind of language.
But starting my freshman year of high school is'nt the only thing im nervous about. Actually to be honest, i was kind of scared to start this blog too. I know its not hard... now that ive been typing for nearly five minutes. But at first i was'nt sure what i was going to exactly type about, but i think i'm okay now. And I was also nervous about people reading my blog, and what they would think of it. Now? I honestly don't care if people read it or not, this is for me to improve my writing and to express my feeling and to just do whatever i want with it. =]
Ill type some more tomorow. For now, i have to get to bed and see if i can settle some of these nerves. Night!

ah yes the dreaded CHANGE I would like to comfort you and say that as you get older change gets easier... more appreciated.. but the truth is to the this day.. change makes my tummy ache!
ReplyDeleteThe only thing one can do with change and the turmoil that inevitably ensues is to stare it in the face and charge it! So good for you ! You'll do great with your willingness to try despite your fears.
Keep writing... :)
Gabby, I'll be looking forward to reading more about your adventures in H.S. Hard as some things might be, just remember it'll all be over before you know it. Sage words I know but not necessarily helpful when it's happening right now.
