The First Day of School
By Victoria Phillips

There you stand all alone in the crowded hallway. You look around, and out of all the familiar faces you recognize, no one seems familiar. Everyone you know is gone and all that is left is emptyness and ever since, you've been looking for someone to get to know. Then all of a sudden someone appears from behind, they ask your name and give you theirs. All the while your words almost fail because you're thankful that their is someone who wants to get to know you. You smile as you both talk, and wonder if there is a hidden meaning in their speaking to you. But yet you can only think of how thankful you are, because all you can remember from before the summer is how you knew all of the now unfamiliar faces. And now you don't. And they are yet again a mystery. Even you are a mystery to yourself. But that one stranger who took the time to talk to you, helps you to start to know yourself again. You find yourself and you appreciate that stranger, and wish there was some way you could repay them more for what they have done for you. Yet you are at a loss for words and you just say bye and walk away until next time, for you never know when you're ever going to see that stranger again.

Awesome. Except in my school, No one is friendly. They all have they`re own little friends who they talk to and don`t care about the lonely people.
