Personal Narrative: My First Day Of Middle School

Improved Essays
I have always thought to myself “ Wow middle school is going to be so easy”. However, I wasn’t prepared for how frightened and nervous I would actually be on the first day. This story is going to be about my first day of middle school and how nervous, and terrified I was that I wasn’t going to fit in.

It all started one beautiful August morning, the birds were chirping and the sun was shining. Today was going to be a wild day, it was my first day of middle school! My mom dropped me off at the front doors of the school, and said, “Bye Josh have a wonderful first day of middle school, I love you”. I said back, “I love you too”, and begin walking through the front doors.

I finally found my bus, and got on, the bus was hotter than the Sahara desert. When I found a seat, I sat down next to some of the kids I meant earlier in the day. When the bus was finally leaving the bus driver said, “ I only have two rules, treat other like you would want to be treated, and keep your feet out of the aisle”.

The bus ride felt like forever, but it was interesting. At the end of my ride an 8th grader came up to me, and told me what I need to know about middle school. What he told me really changed my point of view on middle school. He explained the good teachers and the more strict teachers. Last but not least, he explained that, 6th grade is good but, 7th and 8th grade is so much better and how much he has changed throughout his years at the school. I thought myself, “Wow this kid is like the Buddha to me”.

When he got off the bus I turned out being the next stop, I got off the bus, and started my walk home. In conclusion that day wasn't nearly as bad as I expected. I guess the book, “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” made me think that my first day was going to be frightening and terrible, but really my first day was amazing, I made a ton of new friends and I wasn't scared, or nervous at

During that time I knew nothing about being in a big school because the biggest school i've been in was yankee ridge. (Which is really small).…

    Alex Wang English 10H Ms. Denchfield 10/13/15 Day 1 Alone, yet encompassed by the masses. Sequoia Middle School. The previous day, I had come and registered at this school, so consequently I had no idea what to expect, where to go, and who I was going to meet, seeing as how I hadn’t gone to orientation and didn’t have any idea about what this school was like. The first person that I happened to converse with was a yard duty of whom I asked for directions. He seemed to be a younger male, average height, somewhat skinny, and overall a nice person.…

    “Don’t forget, the paper is due next Wednesday!” My 8th period teacher, Mrs. Oakford told to my class and I as we streamed out of the cramped classroom on a Friday. We couldn’t wait to bust out of the schools doors and claim our prize of a short freedom for surviving another busy, exhausting, and slow week of middle school.

I tried a lot of new things that year, mainly wrestling.…

    My first day of middle school was hell, I have always been good at school. My grades have never been bad and neither have my actions and or attendance. Probably from having a mom that is also a teacher. I look at that as a good thing though, watching kids just goof off and not come to school then high school rolled around and it was like I got to look down on them because they did not prepare for bigger and better things. School wasn't bad for me because it was hard, it was bad because i was always shy in school.…

    High school is both daunting and menacing. Walking into the school on the first day, most underclassmen are too nervous to look into how teachers act and react to the students. As you go through the year, you start to figure out which teachers like sports, which ones are funny, and which ones do not allow being in the hall without a pass. My first day of seventh grade went as bad as any other middle schooler with the bad luck of going to a junior high attached to the high school.…
