Chapter 1- Getting There
Hi I'm Hannah and I just moved to Havenberk Wood just outside
of chicago, I'm in high school and today is my first day, I
would't think that many people move to here it's seems like
it's more like the place that people move from. So I best tell
you why me and my mom moved here then, well...
...My mom and Dad just got a divorce and it was pretty rough
I'm not going to lie. Me and my Mom thought that we needed to
get a fresh start,so what can I say that's how we got this far.
Now it's 7AM and school starts in 1hour and 30 minuites ,so I
have 1 hour to get ready for my first day of school and 30
minuites to actually get to school I wouldn't want to be late
for my first day of school now would I ?
Not that being new wasn't hard enough ,let alone I'm joining
in the middle of the semester,but also I dont really make
friends very easilly.
But then again there's a first time for everything. Isn't
there?
So i've just got out of the shower and now i need to brush my
hair and straghten it mabey , I dont want to look like a tramp
I already feel like an outcast I mean I just moved from
texas I have a weird accent to them the worst thing about it
is that my mom dosen't have the same accent as me because
she's not from Texas she's origonaly from New York City ,
thats where she grew it's 7:50 AM already I need to get
a piece of fruit and leave for school so that im not late.
"Mom is all we have apples ?"I shouted up to my mom (Dianna)
"Yes Hannah I told you that yesterday when you asked me the
exact same question as you do every week!"
So I grabbed a piece of fruit and went out the door it's now 8
AM so I have exactly 30 minuites to get to school on time.
"bye mom"
"bye sweetheart love you "
"Love you too mom"
So I finally got out of the house to notice a big gang of boys
they looked about the same age as me I just hoped that they
wouldn't talk to me or about me and that they wouldn't come
over to me or anything , and luckily they didn't and I got
into the school gates with perfect timing I walked through the
school gates and about 2 or 3 minuites later the bell rang for
regestation , but I didn't know where to go so I asked a
teacher where the reception was and they pointed me in the
right so far this school seemedpretty nice and
not too shabby.
So when I got to the eception there was quite a big line of
people their I'm thinking that they all must have been late to
school.
So I finally got to the front of the line and it seemed as if
it had been ages when the truth was it had only actually been
about 2 or 3 minuites so I asked the lady at the desk.
"Exscuse me I'm new and I dont know where to go can you help
me please , myname is Hannah Siden Wood ."
"Oh yes Hannah I have your schedual here and when you get to
your form room just say sorry your late and give your teacher
this note from me explaining why you are late to class .
