Everything about the school seemed so difficult. When I got home, my parents said, “Youre nervous and thats okay.Everyone is afraid of high school. ”I denied it. I wanted to be strong, so I refused to let anyone know about my fear, even my closest friends.On the first day I was late for every class and was constantly lost. The school seemed like a puzzle that I couldnt figure out. Was this how the whole year was going to be? I didnt think I could rise to this challenge, especially carrying a huge backpack that I could hardly lift. It was so big that I could knock someone out with it!

With the exception of falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle school and much more challenging.Since then, Ive been elected vice monitor of my class, which wasnt much of a victory since only three people ran for the four positions.It is normal to be scared about a new school.Take a deep breath and relax. High school is something that any student can overcome. Make sure you participate in some outofclass activities because youll find it easier to make friends. Try to do your best, even if it isnt straight As.Most important of all, be who you are, whether youre a “fool”， an athlete, or a lower grader. Dont try to pretend to be someone youre not.
