First Day of College

It was the first day of school, and I was really nervous because I had missed orientation and I knew that the school was very strict with their rules. They had all the students gather in the cafeteria in somewhat-alphabetized rows of desks. I sat in front of Lauren because we had our second class together, and both of our last names start with a ‘B.’ Renee and Blake were a few rows away from us, and for some reason, Blane was at the back of my row. The lady running this class, who may have been the AP or something, started taking attendance. She called my name and Lauren’s. When she called Blane’s, he rolled his desk and chair all the way up to the front next to Lauren and I, and he started making jokes. I got really nervous that he was going to get in trouble, but I was mostly embarrassed by it. I turned to Lauren and said “I don’t know why he’s even going to college. He already finished welding school.” After making his jokes, the AP started laughing and told Blane that he’s her new favorite, which really annoyed me. I was walking through the halls to go to class, and when I was walking down some stairs, I realized I was behind Savannah Gray. I knew she was going to want to talk to me, but I was in no mood, so I pretended not to see her until she turned around and saw me.
