7:15am
buzz, buzz, buzz, b-
i reluctantly got out of bed and grabbed my phone, fumbling to turn my alarm off. i had 45 minutes to get ready before i had to walk to school. that should be long enough.

i unfolded my uniform and as i was just finishing putting on my socks, i looked in the mirror.
"i need to sort my hair out, jeez.." i said quietly to myself, trying not to wake up anyone else in the house.
once i had finished brushing, detangling and curling my hair, i picked up my phone and opened instagram.
"maybe i should post a selfie in my new uniform.."

"new school, new me"

i captioned it.

- i had friends at truham and higgs already, even though i was new. the day higgs was told they were getting a new student, i was easily discovered on instagram. i'm meeting someone named elle halfway there, as we're both new.... shoot, it's 7:25am. i need to go make breakfast. -

7:55am
i had just finished packing my bag, and i received a text from elle

"since school starts at 8:40am and we'll probably get there at 8:20am, do you wanna go to truham first and meet my friends? you can make some of your own too!! :)"

make some of my own? i can barely even start a conversation.. let's just see how this goes. it's not like anyone actually knows me there.

"sure, sounds good! i'm just leaving the house now."

i texted back.
carefully buckling my shoes, i threw my bag on my back and walked out of the house. i locked the door, and started walking.
