New rooms, new teachers, different feeling....

This first full-ish day has finally hit me, and being at school has finally started seeming real to me. So I had home room first, and I don't really get he point of it. Most of the time, we just sit in class for half an hour doing nothing at all, but talking. My first class was Socials with Mr. Martin. It went pretty well, we made "appointments" with our clock buddies, and then talked about rights and rules, and responsibilities. Mr. Martin seems like a really cool guy, he's pretty funny, and I bet we'll have an awesome time with him. We had Mr. Olson's class after that, and we just looked over the outline for the year. But we were arranged into our ancient desk settings, and it just brought back memories of that first day in Grade. I had lunch with my sister, Mimi, Leslie and Carina. Taking my sister around the school reminds me of my Grade 8 teachers, which I still miss. I wish we still had Mr. Sale teaching us, he was that awesome. I bet Mr. Martin is going to be just awesome, though! And Ms. Greskiw and Ms. Smedley, they were so nice...At least we still have Mr. Olson! And today in class, when he brought up the subject of Natasha, I was so sad...I really wish she was back in our class, she was such an awesome friend! :(
I had math after lunch with Ms. Knott. She seemed ok, and she gave us a worksheet on Math right after class. Then came French, which I was dreading the whole day. But...it turned out a lot better than I thought! Ms. Todd is actually really, really nice! She's encouraging us to speak French most of the time, but I think I'll get used to it. I think I can actually try to LIKE french this year!
So tomorrow I meet the other Synergy teachers, and then I'll have Band again. Hopefully, there's someone I'll recognize in band, because so far, no one I know is in Intermediate Band. Sigh, I hope it was like last year. There was so much support, because so many Synergy kids were in Intermediate Band, we just encouraged each other. But this year....I don't know, I guess I'll find out tomorrow. Who knows? Maybe it'll turn out just as great as French did!
Hope you had an awesome first day,
