My First Week In High School
My first week at school in H.P.I.A.M I was nervous because I didn't know what it was going to be like and how the teachers were going to be like. Once my mom dropped me off and saw my friends I was more excited to start and get to see new faces. In mostly all my classes i have someone and all my teachers are nice. I like this school because it is really easy finding your classes you don't get lost but the hallway gets packed of alot of people and then they start pushing and I really don't like that. So far my favorite class is instruments. For 1st period i have english ms. pinto, 2nd i have mew media mr. haymore
