Hey guys!

This is my first solo work, wherein I don't edit the grammar or spacing out of someone elses work. This may still contain some errors but meh, I focused on content rather than style.

Please R&R. Feedback is highly appreciated.

Enjoy~

Today was my first day in high school. I was lucky enough to land a scholarship to this place. I walked around in awe and begin to explore this new environment.

Center Parks High School – The most prestigious private high school this side of Colorado. Although it's quite a ways away from South Park and my family isn't exactly earning enough to even afford a decent meal, or 3 square meals a day for that matter, it's always been my dream to attend here.

I looked at the different faces around me. I didn't recognize anyone - but then again, I'm not exactly the most social person nor do I think anyone in my previous school could afford going here. No one would recognize me either. I always wear this orange parka of mine and keep my face and hair covered by the hood. The hood is my identity and my comfort. It hides my beauty and my ugliness.

A bell rang overhead followed by the crackling of a PA system. The sea of noise slowly went silent as a voice started booming from the other end. It sounds like a middle aged man with a speaking disorder.

"ALL STUDENTS, M'KAY, PLEASE PROCEED TO THE AUDITORIUM FOR THE OPENING ASSEMBLY, M'KAY" said the man on the PA.

At once, like a flowing river, the students started moving towards the auditorium and I just let myself get carried along by the crowd.

The auditorium was enormous. It seemed more like an opera house than an auditorium. You could probably fit 1000 people here and still have room for more. Near the entrance was a desk where people were lining up at. I went in line and once it was my turn, I was greeted by a smiling face on the other side.

"Hi! My name is Kelly. I'm here to give you your assigned auditorium seat for the whole year, as well as give you your class schedule. What's your name and grade?" said Kelly.

I replied "Hello. McCormick, Kenny McCormick. I'm a freshman."

"You're a freshie, huh? It's nice to see that you chose to go here." Her smile widened and she began to browse through the pile of papers in front of her.

"I've always dreamed of going here. I was really lucky to be given a scholarship."

"Really? That's great! I'm a scholar too. Don't forget to do your service hours, ok?" she said, still browsing the pile for my name.

She placed her finger on a page and looked up "Here we go. McCormick, Kenny. You're assigned to row 25, seat 30. Here is your class schedule. I hope you enjoy it here at CPHS."

"Thanks" I managed to say before turning away to look for my seat in this colossal room.

I found my seat after 5 minutes. These seats are so comfortable that I could get used to this. I survey the crowd. Even though this place is so goddamn huge, it seems like it's beginning to fill up. I took side glances at my seatmates.

The one on my left is a guy with blond hair. He's wearing some sort of turquoise shirt with some brown pants. He seems rather friendly and seems to smile a lot. He seemed preoccupied with his thoughts and was looking straight at the stage

He noticed me and began to speak "Well hiya fella! I'm Stotch, Leopold Stotch, but you can call me Butters. What's your name?"

"McCormick, Kenny McCormick" I muffled through my parka. This guy is radiating with so much friendliness that it's slightly sickening.

"Well hiya Kenny! I hope they start soon. I'm so excited for classes to start. I have to do well or else my parents say that Santa Clause will take me and sell me as a slave in Africa"

"Oh God" I thought to myself "This is going to be one excruciating assembly. This guy's a tool. He's too gullible. How did this guy survive this long?"

Butters went back to staring straight towards the stage and seemed out of it again. I took this opportunity to glance at whoever was on my right. It was a boring looking guy. He had black hair poking out of his blue chullo, which had a yellow puff on top. He seemed stiff that he could've been a statue were it not for the steady rise and fall of his chest.

"Good Morning, Students" spoke a voice from the speakers. Wow, they have surround-sound.

I looked at the stage and only noticed now that there are big screens on either side of the stage. They showed an old man wearing a blue suit and red tie. He was slightly going bald and already had white hair. He had a liver spot on his neck and a mole on his eyebrow.

"To the returning students, welcome back. For the freshmen and those who are new here, let me introduce myself. I am Principal Tan. Welcome to Center Parks High School" He spoke with a grin on his face

"You all might be wondering why we have assigned seats to you this year. It is because we are trying out a new system of education. The people around you will be the ones that you will see in most of your classes."

"The new system will give each of you a specialization track. It's sort of a preparation for college in a sense that you're already taking some college-level classes. We've pre assigned each of you a specialization but should you wish to change it, you may approach Mr. Mackey before the week is done."

"We have created 4 different specialization tracks – Humanities, Social Science, Management, and Science and Engineering." He pointed to the left screen, which now showed fancy logos for each track.

"If you'd like to know which track you've been placed in, just check your class schedules. It should be indicated on the upper right hand corner." He concluded as the sound of shuffling paper now filled the room.

I looked at my schedule and sure enough, on the upper right hand corner in neatly printed words it said: Science and Engineering track. I also took the time to look at what my classes were - there was English Honors 12, Literature 13, Spanish 12, Math 18, P.E., and CS 11.

"Wow" I thought. "I actually made it to an honors class? This is going to be a great year."

"Although you may have different tracks," Principal Tan continued. "You will all still be following the same core subjects as any other school."

"To the upper classmen, you are dismissed. Please proceed to your respective classes. We shall now have an Orientation seminar for the freshmen."

Past this point, I lost interest in what the principal was saying. I was too excited to see what classes here had in store for me. Little did I know that what would happen in the next few months would be a roller coaster of fun.

Yay for first chapter!

I'll try to upload at least every other day, so good luck to me. T_T
