The only thing I felt was anxiety.

I look around only to see strangers, looking and pointing to me. The only thing that I felt was embarrassment. Surprisingly I saw an old face, it’s Liz. Hot-faced, I looked down at my feet, using my mum to guide me to the building. Suddenly I heard that familiar voice;

“HI SERENA!”
Her winning english accent, irritated me but my brothers forced me to reply. I didn’t. I looked back down.  Surprisingly, I heard the cold ringing sound of the first bell.

My mum had finally ditched me, only to leave me in a room with strange children and an adult, whose faces I’d never seen before.

A girl called Lei had greeted me with a vibrant warm smile. She helped me settle into a desk next to her and 2 other girls, Alex and Shemaiah. I felt a little better but, I still felt unsure about myself.

After the tall beautiful female adult introduced herself, she warmly invited me to introduce herself. I answered most questions, where’d you come from, what ethnicity are you and other things like that.

Finally the teacher asked me the last question,

“This school is going to be hard and it’s your first day at St.Mary’s are you ready for the school year? Are you ready for the pressure?”

I then looked her straight in the eye and said

“BRING … IT...ON!!”
