First day of high school is always an eventful one.
Getting lost among all the amazons that roam the hallways to getting yelled at on the first day for being late- it gets a tad bit stressful I must admit. I entered knowing it wasn't going to be a piece of cake, but I got assigned a regent and a paper all due tomorrow (that I finished already, mind you). School hasn't even "officially" started yet and I'm breaking out already!
I guess this is what turning your brain completely off for 2 months does to a person.
I talked to a couple of people that were no longer STAC noobies and they told me that once 6th period ends, school essentially ends too. Academically, at least. I must say, I agree with them!
Watched an episode of Star Trek today and the message that it conveyed was something that I was totally not expecting. I've never seen the show, so I didn't really know what to expect anyway. It spoke about homosexuality and I think it's a very interesting topic, because it's not one that's often touched upon in school and I'm just really glad that it's so openly discussed and talked about in STAC.
Even though this is my first year, and even how perpetually lost I will probably be, I have a good feeling there's a lot in store when it comes to STAC.
I look forward to spending more time and getting to know everyone better!
I love the phrase "Amazons of the hallway." That is how it feels - physically smaller than all these bigger kids.
ReplyDeleteWhat is also very bizarre, is that my first reaction to the word "Amazon" is no longer to think of the mythical women warriors. I know think of Amazon the entity that ships me books and tools and whatnot, all purchased on line. So, for a moment, the Amazons of the hallway were websites for me!
