Feeling like A Freshman Again

Today was my first day of school and it was HECTIC! I had to get my classes, find out where to go, and meet all of Allie's friends. My schedule is near perfection. I'm taking 2 classes that I take back home as well as all if the art classes I could cram into my schedule. Us history, AP Lang, chorus, voice class (which is just singing), ceramics,painting and drawing II, as well as a free period and floater class were I can sit in any classes that happen during 6th. I have new friends in every class and lunch with Sarah and Allie along with their hilarious and crazy friends. Because Mr. D and I spent the first 2 classes planning my schedule, I didn't get to go to all of my classes. Today was only arts classes and, honestly, I was really okay with that. Being exhausted and running on first day fumes, I was jittery and nervous and probably couldn't have handled a class anyway. All of the classes that I took today, however, were amazing. Chorus and voice class was just singing and having a good time, my arts classes were just like IFA art except more specialized, and lunch was when I realized that everyone is hilarious and perfect for me. They wore me out, I couldn't stop laughing and we all related really well. My first day couldn't have gone better. After school I took a LONG (and well deserved) nap while Allie ran some errands. At 5:30 (I was still sleeping) Allie busted open my bedroom door, turned on my light, and started jumping on my bed singing, "NOOOO SCHOOOLLL TOMORROWWWW!" Because of Hurricane Sandy and this crazy rain and wind weather we don't have school tomorrow. Sarah came over for dinner and we had a sleep over (which apperently is a totally normal thing to do on a school night due to lack of homework in schools). All night Allie was reading us updates and showing us pictures of flooded New York City. It's absolutely insane. I got a few texts from friends making sure I'm okay but it's just surreal that this is all happening just hours away from me. I hope very one in New York is okay. Keep them in your thoughts. Over all my first day couldn't have gone better and I'm so gratful that I'm fitting in and sticking out just enough to be myself :) tomorrow will be interesting because Allie and Sarah have planned to take me around the area more and go "Hurricane Shopping" which is basically just shopping while its raining and buying things because we assume we're going to die anyway so YOLO! I'm excited (as always).
