Miss fortune in My New School Story
Misfortune in my new school
Arshia Amali

I woke up by the blue jays singing by the tree beside my bedroom window. I got dressed in my blue jeans and my Adidas sweater. As I went downstairs my mom had a big breakfast set out on the round table. I sat down and as I started gobbling down the pancakes my brother joined us. We cleaned off the table and I took my backpack and put on my jacket to go out for school. My brother ‘Matt’ following right behind me. I and he decided to take the shortcut we found during summer break when we went biking, instead of the actual way through the streets. It had already started to snow in September and the shortcut through the pond was slippery, but we scrambled through it. As we made our way near the school, we saw some of the kids we saw when we went biking hanging out by the timeworn school sign. I guess my brother didn’t really want to enter school with me because he scurried off to a friend he met at a band competition during the break. I didn’t really find any friends during the break, except this kid named Jack who was my neighbour, but the problem with him was that he was one of the fattest kid I have seen, and all he would want to do was stay home and watch this TV show about a loser who always got beaten up. I stayed away from him all summer but I guess I shouldn’t have, because now I have to enter the school all by my self not knowing where to go or not knowing anything about the school. At least the school entrance looked warm hearted. I made way up the aged stairs of the school. I opened the door to the school and felt a warm breeze of air through my body. It didn’t look too bad like I imagined. To my left a bunch of kids were by the classroom talking to one of the teachers and to my right some kids all had their heads in one locker looking at something. I decided to go up to the administration desk and ask for my class list. The women behind the computer gave me the piece of paper with my classroom numbers. Since I

    I dreaded the alarm that woke me up at 6:30 in the morning. It was as loud as a screaming toddler that could be heard for miles. I groggily got out of bed and got ready for my first day of school. It was a weird feeling not putting on a uniform like I had been for the past nine years, but I also enjoyed that freedom. The nervousness became more and more intense as I could closer and closer to campus. When we arrived, I got out of the car, and watched my dad drive off to go take my younger sister to school. There was no going back now; I had no other choice than to walk through those doors. I felt like my throat was in my stomach. I noticed some familiar faces, and I walked towards them. While I was approaching my friends, a senior, facing toward me, walked passed. He must have been at least six feet tall, which was incredibly intimidating for me at just over five feet. I was not used to the fact that I’d potentially have classes with these giants. Additionally, the array of new teachers, and having to learn all of their teaching styles and things they did or did not tolerate was hard in…

    The sky was raining ever so slightly over Canbourne Cove High School. In Canbourne Cove, there was a student named Sam Salvatore. Sam was what every kid would call a nerd. He would complete all his learning tasks to a high standard. He was a typical kid, he had brown eyes, brown hair and wore glasses. He was one of those students who would do their top button up. If he didn’t have it done up he could not continue his day. However, Sam had a sad side. Other students would tease him because of his physical appearance. Especially ‘The Bower brothers.’ Bradley, Barry and Ben. They weren’t really brothers, that’s just what people called them. Sam was a little bit over weight compared to the other students.…

    I'm six years old, and I'm secretly watching the girls in my class loudly chatting in the corner of the classroom. It's 2008, and I'm quietly sitting on my desk, wondering to myself: "Am I not important enough for a simple goodbye?". I nervously shift on the chair, impatiently waiting for the minutes to tick by. My red sweater is itching against my throat. The teacher came in and we begin class as usual. Ms. Claudia is talking about our final reflections…

    The steam from his drink coated his glasses, and behind the mug I could see a toothless smile and a dark shiny grey beard. He gestured for my dad and I to come in. I stepped my way up into the overcrowded room full of mustard yellow couches. Not only did the place looked run down, and about to fall apart but, the place smelled like the worst mixture of rotten foods you could imagine. My dad and I’s facial expressions to each other said it all about this place. Once we had found our way, we filled out some application forms. During the process, I stood beside my dad, searching to find another girl taking the class. I looked forever only to find that there were no other girls…

    I had only gotten six hours of sleep. I didn’t want to get up but today is the day that I get to explore Chicago with my friends! Even though I felt exhausted I pushed myself up and got ready. I didn’t know whether to expect it to be warm like the last few days have been or if it would be cold, so I dressed for both. I pulled my sneakers on and collected my little bag full of snacks and essentials for walking around all day. Getting to school I go sit with my friends outside the gym as we anxiously wait for the bell to ring. We came up with our plan of where we wanted to go as we munched on our little breakfast.…

    Back when I was a littlun, my daddy worked in the meat factory and mama stayed at home cleaning the house and making me my dinner. My parents wanted me to be a smarty, so they made me go to school. They also said I was a good singer, so I decided to join the boys choir. Me and my best bud Charles would go down to the river to skip rocks, but sometimes we would go play chicken on the railroad tracks. Sometimes daddy would say “Stephen, wanna come a huntin with me?” and I would tag along behind him while he hunted for pheasant. I never really listened to daddy’s rules, so he decided to send me off to some fancy boarding school. It was at this point in my life where everything started taking a turn for the worst.…

    It had been a crazy morning as I ran all over my house trying to find my jacket and boots. My mom had been admitted into the hospital that morning for a massive headache and all I could think about was whether or not she would be okay. I took her to the emergency room that day before so going to class was the last thing on my mind. My father and sister had agreed to stay with her till I ended class so I was more at ease knowing she wouldn’t be alone. After running all over my house looking for my things I quickly gathered myself to make my train. I finally got to Penn Station with four minutes to spare. I quickly walked to where the rest of my class was as we waited for instructions to where we would…

    “Hello,” said a kind face to me as I entered my first eighth-grade class at a new school. “Hello,” I said back, not knowing how to take the gesture. I walked into a classroom full of new faces. Everyone was gawking at the new kid. I thought to myself, “is it what I’m wearing? Do I look weird? Should I say something?” I did nothing but go to my assigned seat, and sat quietly just like I did on the bus months prior. As I sat in silence, I listened intently as the teacher floated across the room while calling roll. When I heard my name called, I tried to muster up the courage to address myself in a casual way, but I’m sure that it came out as a nervous “here.” As she finished roll call, each student was handed a mountain of forms and papers. Then the class slowly transformed into a parade of shouts and laughter. Everyone was welcoming each other back, except for me. I sat there in silence examining everyone.…

Since I was the last one to leave my teacher Mrs.Trovato said “did you enjoy watching the video?”I quietly respond yes and start wondering about how people survived back then. When I came back from school I changed my skinny jeans and blouse in to my sweats and tank top. Quickly I get in to my bed and snuggled in with my electric blanket.…

    The smell of strawberry tingles my nose. The coldness of the surrounding makes me feels like I am flying. It's cold… Really cold… cold… Am I dead?! I force my eyes to open and fell down face to face on the floor. 'Ouch…' I growled with a painful voice. I carefully touch my face with one hand and the other touching the cold floor, ouch… it hurts… As I tried to stand up, I accidentally stand on my long dark brown hair and slip, consciously, again, the floor kissed my face. 'OUCH!!' I cried out loud. I looked up to the clock which was hung on the wall, 7.40a.m. Suddenly, it struck me, 'SCHOOL STARTS AT 7.45!!! I am going to be late!!!' I quickly rush to get myself ready and rush down the stairs. I glance at the clock on the kitchen, it shows 7.43. OH NO!!! I quickly ran out the apartment and ran to school, I am going to be late!!! School takes about 10 minutes walk and about 5 minutes if I run. I quickly ran and ran. I reached the gate by 7.49 as I glance at my watch. I quickly ran to my classroom and sneaks in the classroom. 'Going anywhere? Ms. Late Princess Lacie Klein,' my homeroom teacher, Ms. Layla called out to me. I sweat drop a little,…

    It was a cold morning, I remember because I was wearing a brand new coat my parents had bought for me, and we all were walking in line from the cafeteria to the classroom. We were all excited because on this day, Mr. Forster was going to teach us how to bake a pumpkin pie from scratch. He was carrying a huge pumpkin which we were going to carve to use for the pie. When we got to our classroom it was noisier than ever; everyone was filled with excitement. Before we could start doing the fun part, we had to take a spelling test. We had begged him to give us the test later that afternoon, but he did not budge. “Clear your desk, and take out your notebook and your pencils” he said. Those were his last words before collapsing to the floor unresponsive. The classroom went completely silent for what seemed to be many hours, but in all…

    When I reached school, my suspicion was confirmed. The school was terribly abnormal. Many students were wearing jackets while others huddled close together. Their teeth were chattering due to the cold. Some kind students shared their jackets by wrapping them around those who had none. It was pure lucky that I bought along a warm and cozy woolly jacket. As the school bell rang loudly, each of us trotted into the classroom. We sat together in groups. We did not seem to be in the mood to study. Many…

    The office began calling students and teachers down to the office one after the other. I had no idea what was going on. All I knew was that I had hoped that they would call me down so I would have an excuse to get out of class. The bell rang and second period was over. My friends and I got up and walked out of class only to notice a bunch of frantic looks on everyone’s face. Everywhere I looked, teachers and students wore a face of worry and fear. As I walked further down the hallway all I could hear was cries of fear and disbelief. My friends and I still had no idea what was going on. Curiosity grew for all of us. We asked our peers what was going everyone…

    Childhood Days

    I spent six long yet tender years in (school name) and that is definitely the best part of my life. It taught me to love, laugh, cry, share, live and let live. Recently, I visited my school after a long gap. The pathways to the school building now have shady trees which we had once planted as part of our extracurricular activity…but somewhere deep within, I had a doubt whether the trees still remembered me now? As we were having a small GT (get-together), there were no classes. The campus was virtually empty and quiet. I saw the walls that we had decorated with all sorts of posters and graffitis. I asked…the kabaddi, kho-kho, basketball grounds…the slipper…the empty class rooms, the benches but all remained silent…amused…I grasped…life at that time was so simple……
