Today was the first day of school. I was half-sleeping and half bouncing off the walls. I didn't get any sleep but the nerves and excitment of seeing my friends again got me up.

The schedules have changed so much from last year's, but I guess it kinda takes some stress away from all the different classes we had before. I don't have home ec, art, or woods anymore. 7th graders have woods. Unless they're in band. 8th graders have metals, unless they're in band. If you're in orchestra, you don't get art or home ec. This insures that everyone gets study hall at least once this year.

But this time I don't have to run from one end of the building to the other in 3 mins in crowded halls. All my classes execpt Orch, metals, and gym are in the south hall. That makes everything alot easier. But the poor 7th graders still have alot of running to do.

But I made new friends! The 7th and 8th grades eat together now, instead of being separated. The lunch line was alot longer, but me and Britt met some 7th graders in line and told they'll be our new friends. We don't know they're names, but they're expressions were funny.
