Where Does The Time Go?
As I awoke to sound of my alarm, I realized today is the start of a whole new beginning. I lie in my bed for a few more moments hopping to soon realize that I was dreaming but I finally got up ready to face reality. I dressed myself about 20 times and did my hair God knows how many times before I was ready to go. ” Oh wait,” I thought to myself I need to eat. I wandered into the kitchen and rummaged through the kitchen pantry. I quickly grabbed a cereal bar and my tote bag.
“Kyllllaaa” I turned just before I stepped out the door and a bright light filled the room. Of course being the women that my mother is, she had to take a picture. “Goodbye mom” I said as she kissed me on the forehead. When I arrived to the bus stop I saw about 12 other kids there and none of them looked familiar. I was wishing for the bus to come and as it pulled up, my heart started racing as if I had just ran a mile. I stepped on the bus and I thought I dare try and look for a seat.
So I sat in the first available seat I was thinking to myself as the bus came near Stevenson, “it only seems like it was just yesterday that I was starting first grade.” We pulled up to Stevenson and the stranger next to me got up as I did. I hopped of the bus and my heart sank to my stomach like an anchor in an ocean. I walked up to Stevenson and as I entered the side I said to myself; “wow, where does the time go?”
