I was talking to a friend earlier from where I used to live. She asked me if I'd met anyone down in Georgia yet. Sadly, I haven't. Between the cold and the rain we keep getting, I don't blame people for staying inside where it's warm. She assured me that when school started, I'd do fine.
I'd been thinking the same thing. I mean, at first, I was absolutely terrified. Now, with no set schedule, I don't know what to do with myself around the house, and there's nothing I can go out and do. I got over my nervousness though, by thinking like a teen, and trying to take a perspective from all sides.
1. I'm a brand new student that's suddenly in class. That's going to be noted.
2. I'm pretty, so guys will notice, and girls will, too.
3. Since I'm new, I'm like fresh meat. My newness makes me interesting.
4. And I'm from Tennessee. Tennessee is a cool place!
So of course, I'm not going to walk in unnoticed. It might take a few days, but I'll make friends, no problem. I haven't fully convinced myself, but there could be a chance that I'll be asked to prom. I mean, maybe, right?
So that's my entering the new school confident theory. It'll still be a good end to my sophomore year.
Tennssee is an awful place. you lie.
ReplyDeleteTennessee can be cool.... Murfreesboro definitely isn't as pretty as Buford is, though. Not by a long shot.
