Freshmeat Everybody goes through things in life that they don't forget, even if it's good or bad. One of those memories is the first day of high school. I don't remember it vividly, but I do remember all the nervousness and not knowing where to go. The night before school started, I was just worried about what to wear, if a had everything I needed, and well scared to see if I would sleep through my alarm. Over the summer I stayed up all night and slept through most of the day. Let's just say my sleeping schedule is still messed up till this day. For the most part I didn't sleep through my alarm because I was up all night worrying about the good and bad things. I woke up like 3 hours early, hyped but still nervous.

I remembered having to straighten my hair from the shower I took the night before. My hair is very wavy, so straightening my hair is a must for me. After that I brushed my teeth and continued getting ready. I remember sitting on the stairs with my siblings because we had like 45 minutes till we had to go our separate ways.

Sure enough, I was getting on the bus heading first to the sixth grade to drop off the new and old middle schoolers as well as the first timers for the sixth grade. And well, picking up the rest of the “freshmeat” that waited with nervousness and tried to hide.

My English teacher senior year was a great person, but did not necessarily teach us a lot about proper styles of writing papers. Coming into college English, I did not feel well prepared with what to expect for a college level writing class.…
