Personal Narrative Essay: Lisa's First Day Of School

Improved Essays
Since it was Lisa's first day of school, I wanted to know if she had a good day. She said that she had a good day. Unfortunately, her classroom (located on the fourth floor) did not have air conditioning. As a result, she and her classmates had to figure out ways to cope with the heat.

Next, Lisa told me that junior athletes attend her school. Since her school is located near an ice skating rink. Sometimes, the athletes will miss their classes, go the rink, and practice their skating routines.

We also talked about the latest Olympic coverage. Lisa said that she was proud when she watched a South Korean athlete participate in the taekwondo event, because it is South Korea's traditional sport. This led to a conversation about sportsmanship

    The first thing I noticed when I walked into Jasmine Middle School was how big the eighth graders were. I knew that in middle school the sixth graders would be the babies, but it was still kind of a shock at how big eighth graders really were; well, at least I hoped the kids I was looking at were eighth graders. If the group of kids hanging out by the lockers were seventh graders, then eighth graders must be huge. Luckily, after looking around for a few seconds, I spotted my best friend, Georgina Larson by the water fountain. She’s never hard to find, because her hair is light blonde, and she’s always wearing really flashy outfits.…

    Being a high school student is composed of restless nights, and eight exhausting hours of classes in which you are obligated to stay awake in. A normal school day begins with me snoozing my alarm about ten times before my dad walks into my room telling me the dreaded “time to get up for school” reminder which I just take as a suggestion. Normally I will drag myself into the bathroom about ten minutes later to begin my routine. I spend about 40 minutes in the bathroom preparing myself for school and by the time I am done it is usually time to grab all of my things and barely catch the bus. Now this has to be my least favorite part of the day.…

On the first day of high school, I stepped into a crowd of students, waiting to enter the building that would become my second home for the next four years. I didn’ not know where I would stand among these highly accomplished individuals, or if I would even amount to the standards set before me. Self-doubt began to fester inside of me as soon as I stepped through the front doors. I expected less and less of myself as time went on.…
