Senior year of high school rolled around. It was finally time to start going back to school. For some reason it decided to start on a Thursday. As I showed up to school I knew only one thing. I had to go to my first period class that I had last year in order to get my new schedule. Wondering the halls I tried to remember which one I had first. As I walked past my crush my brain stopped working for a second. Once I was past him my brain got to work again. Ah ha, JROTC. Now in the JROTC class room I asked Chief for my schedule. He told me we actually didn’t get it today, and that we’d get it tomorrow. “Ok, that’s weird?” I thought. Turning around I went and sat down with some of my JRTOC friends at this Staff only table that got installed in the back. Let’s just say everything that happened at the table was weird too. People who didn’t belong at it, were sitting at it. This confused me so much. Moving on. Next thing ya know I hear word of a pep rally that’s gonna be held. I also heard there’s gonna be another on Friday as well. Now I’m not a pep rally kind of person, so when the period ended and I was dismissed to go to it, I decide to go to the bathroom first. After meeting up with my friend, Jazmine, we went go to hide. As we walked in though we saw so many people with the same idea. It wasn’t even just girls, there were boys too. However, they welcomed us in and waved us over. We all conversed for a minute before one guy, Yash, decided to take a photo and put in on Snap Chat. I looked cute so I didn’t care. When we were done some of us actually decided to go to the pep rally. I mean, it’s weird to be late irl, but I guess that didn’t matter in my dream. So, once we sat down in the gym—which seemed to be outdoors now—we listened to see what Mrs. Gershbach had to say. As she went on I heard one thing which was “rolled coaster”. Next thing ya know I’m on one going around our school. It’s wooden, but it’s wicked too. It was honestly kinda fun. Flash forward to Thursday. I’m walking through the halls again to JRTOC. All of a sudden I noticed this one guy I use to crush on from another school, and he was walking to class with my crush. Now I was freaked out. Anyways, now instead of going to JRTOC I went to my XC coach. He had fish in his room now despite being a history teacher. In my dazed state I asked him if he had my schedule. He said no, but he did tell me he had the shell of a horseshoe crab. He showed it to me. I just waved it off cause I’ve seen them so many times before. Next thing ya know I get back on track and go to JROTC. Once in there I went to talk to Chief again. Walking up to his desk I asked for my schedule. Since I was late he had to take a second to look for my paper. As he did I noticed all the new kids in JRTOC. They were all so small. Ah, freshmen. With that being said Chief finally gave me my schedule. I didn’t bother to look at it though cause I knew I didn’t need to. I had that pep-rally again. Walking into it I initially sat down with my friend Adam. He shouldn’t have been there though cause he switched schools. Oh well, it’s nice to see the boy. Either way though, he actually got up and went off to sit with someone else. Looking around I noticed my friend Nerfrye. She came right down the steps to sit with me. We conversed until the pep rally-started.
