My Story.
Chapter 1
A New School.
Hi, my name is Emma Laurence. This whole thing started when I had to go to a new school when my mom got a new job in Vancouver.
“Mom?” “Mm?” she replied “We’ve been driving for hours. Are we almost there?” “We’ve been driving for five minutes, Emma.”she said. I look out the window at A ginormous building with a sign on it that said, “ “Why did you stop here?” I asked. “This is your new school.” What. “No way.... This place is WAY to big mom! I'll NEVER find my way around! You said it would be easier to get around in this new school! DON'T MAKE ME GOOO!!” I pleaded, “Stop being a drama queen, This is the only school that I liked. Your going here. Now quickly, get your stuff and get out of my car, I'll be later for work!” Fine. I crawled out of the car.
“Bye sweetie! Have a nice day!” She yelled through her window. Oh, God. Please tell me she did NOT just do that... Pleeease... I felt about a million eyeballs looking in my direction.
I ran as fast as I could to the school to avoid embarrassment. Man. It looked even BIGGER on the inside. Now I know what it's like to be a Polly Pocket.
I saw a bunch of kids knowing what they were doing... Maybe it would be cool once in a while not to be the new kid
“Hey you!” I heard from behind me, I turned around and there was a tall girl with dark brown hair looking at me, “You Emma?” “Uh... Yeah. I'm new around here...” I said. “I know how it feels, I remember being the new girl.” she said, walking closer. “I'm Lindsey.” Awesome! Someone who could be my friend and help me around this giant maze.
“Yeah, I might need some help getting around the school... and I need to get my class schedule. Can you help?” “Yep!, follow meeeee!” she said skipping away. Definitely my kind of person. I followed skipping behind Lindsey.
We skipped into a small room. Lindsay went over to a table with a bunch of papers on them. She picked up one that had my name on it,
“Here you go! I guess you signed up for the gymnastics team. see you at practice, bye Emma!” she said as she left the room. .My mom signed me up because of the gymnastics team! Thank god I'll be able to do something here that I like.
I probably didn't tell you this before but I'm VERY good at gymnastics.
When I was little my mom signed me up for gymnastics cause I would run around the house like a lunatic, doing cartwheels and flips.
Anyway I was in English class today the teacher was late so the class room was a complete madhouse. There was spitballs on the walls, there was homework EVERYWERE, and there was even a turkey sandwich stuck to the wall. The only person (other than me ) that wasn't spazing, was Lindsey she was sitting quietly by herself, she motioned me to a seat next to her .About two second after I sat down, I felt a pencil eraser jab between my shoulder blades, I looked behind me and I could not believe my eyes, it was Bella! Bella was my best friend in till she moved. I completely forgot she moved to Vancouver! I was about to jump up and start to scream, but just then the teacher walked in. “We'll talk after class!” I said to her, giggling. The minute the teacher walked in it was like everyone just walked in. Almost like nothing ever happened.
All of the homework was stuffed in backpacks, everything was cleaned, excepted the sandwich. “That was my sandwich.” Lindsey told me.
After English we had about three minutes to talk, first we exchanged emails, then phone numbers, then addresses, then we split up onto our classes. But right before the bell rang, we made a plan to walk home together, because we realized that we live right across the street from eachother. Next class, ART, WHOHO! I ?LOVE? ART! Its my best subject (Next to P.E, that is). First I met this girl named Sofia, I swear If I didn't know better, she could be my twin. Not exactly tall or short, thick longish brown hair, we even had pretty much the same schedule, but she did french instead of English. Grrr. So, it's my first day and I met two new friends (Lindsay and Sofia, In case you FORGOT...). And found my old one (BELLA!) so my first day went pretty well...
