Something New
By: Hailey Bauman

Have you ever been new at anything? School or new team? I have, when it was my first year at Live Oak .Doesn’t the first day of school make you have a strange feeling in your stomach ?All you need to do is be yourself .That always works.
On my first day at Live Oak I was very nervous. I was nervous because it was my first day at a new school that I never heard of before. I was also afraid if I would see any old friends or relatives. That was my biggest concern. I was also excited because I enjoy school and learning new things. I always had different feelings on the first day of school.
I bet you now want to know how others treated me. There were some friendly people, nice people, and very mean people. The friendly ones, I think they just want to be friendly. I was comfortable around them. But the nice ones were different. I think they just wanted to impress the teachers. They didn’t do very well. On the other hand, the mean ones were just ungraceful. They wanted to be the class clown. People treated me differently.
There were some people I knew there. My stepsister , Kara, was there. But she wasn’t new, so she helped me to the classes and introduced me to people there. She was a little help because she was in a different grade than me, but I was still appreciated her. My friend Anya helped me a lot. I never knew her before, but she was nice. She helped me the most because was in my grade and around my age group. My teacher Ms. Jenkins also helped. She was really nice and helped me through the year. I had some weight lifted of my back because I knew some people there.
I hope you enjoyed the experience of how I felt, my concerns, on my first day at Live Oak. I had a different experience than I thought I would have had.
