Today is the day my life changes. It’s my first day of senior year at my new high school. My family and I moved to get a new start after my mom died. So we left our home in Nashville, Tennessee and moved all the way out to Los Angeles California.
Right now it is 7:00 am. I rolled out of bed and go to the bathroom adjacent to my room. I take a quick shower ad start getting dressed. I do my hair and do some light makeup. I eat my breakfast and lock up the house. I get in the car and try to start it. It wouldnt start my brother already left for his first day of work. It looks like I have to walk. I start walking in the direction of the school. I arrive at school and it is now 8:30. I finally locate the registrar, she is already talking to someone so I take a seat in one of the chairs. Once they finally finished talking it’s already 8:55. I walk up to her and get my class schedule and a map of the campus.
I quickly start walking towards my first period, since class already started. My first class is math, so I started walking towards the ath wing. As I was walking I started getting turned around in the halls and eventually ended up lost. Since everyone was in class there was no one to ask for directions.

He said yes he would because we have the same class. We got to class with only five minutes left. Jonathan explained that I was knew, and I got lost and he was showing me where to go. The teacher accepted our excuses and told us that he would catch us up with the rest of the class tomorrow.
After that we make our way to our next four classes. Then we have lunch, I meet Jonathan’s friends. “Hey guys meet Madison.” Jonathan told the guys. “Hi I am Jack Gilinsky and this Jack Johnson.” said a boy with an amazing smile, as he points to a blonde boy wearing basketball shorts and vans. The boy looks up from his phone and waves. “Hey guys nice to meet yall” I say with a smile as put my lunch tray down. As I sit down a boy with a guitar case slung across his shoulder came up to us. “ Guys sorry I am late. I had a good idea for some great lyrics.” said the boy. “Oh hey this is Shawn Mendes one of our closest friends” sad Johnson. “Hi my name is Madison Taylor.” I introduce myself for what feels like the hundredth time today. For the rest of lunch Shawn told us about his new song.
Soon it was time to go back to class. We ended
