Chapter 2: August 8th 1996

Today I started school. That is the only reason I'm keeping a record of my life in a journal. Because I think it will be great to come back in the future to see these awesome memories. I want to remember them forever!

So, as I said, today was my first day of school. I've never ever had friends before. It was always just me and dad. But today, I found out how awesome it is to meet other people. I have six awesome new friends. I wonder if I will make more as time passes on? I certainly hope so, because something about life seems way cooler now with these people in it.

When I went into my classroom, I wont lie, I was really nervous. Like I've said, it's always just been me and dad. I was scared of all the strange people around me. You know what was the worst? They were all so... unbalanced! No symmetry to be found! But then some of the other kids came over to talk to me, and I found that with them, symmetry didn't matter anymore!

The first people to talk to me where two girls who looked so much like each other, they had to be twins. They told me their named were Liz and Patty. The only way I can tell them apart is that Patty is way more crazy then her sister. It's actually quite fun just watching her!

After a bit, a very shy girl was tugged over our way by a really loud, very annoying blue haired kid. His name was Black*Star. Apparently one of the teachers was taking care of him because his whole family is gone. He doesn't seem to mind. I can't imagine life without dad. Oh, and the girl's name was Tsubaki. I like that name. She's really nice, and pretty symmetrical too!

We all ended up sitting together in a corner of the classroom chatting, when another kid joined us. He has white messy hair, the most lopsided grin ever, red eyes, and spiky teeth! Some of the kids are scared of him. I bet if they got to know him they would love him. He's really cool, and really funny. He and Black*Star are very similar. Oh, his name is Soul. That's another cool name. I wonder why my name is Kid. That's kind of lame.

As the day went on, and I learned a lot about my new friends, I started to notice that there was a girl in our class who was just sitting by herself in the corner opposite from ours. I felt really really bad, she looked so lonely! And there I was with five people around me, having fun. I left the group for a bit and went over to talk to her. She told me her name was Maka. That's a very pretty name. I really like Maka. She's probably the most interesting friend I made today. I can't wait to see her tomorrow! Sure she's really shy and quiet, but I can tell we have a lot in common and will be great friends.

And that's all that happened today really. We met our teacher too. Mr. Stein. He's really creepy. I'm not the only kid afraid of him either. I mean, the guy has a big nail through his head! Well, dad says it's actually a screw. That doesn't make him any less scary.

Anyway, dad just finished supper, so I guess this the end of this entry. I'll be sure to write in you again when something else amazing happens. Until then!

Kozarr: Thank you for reading. In future chapters, this place will be used to thank people for adds and reviews.

Future chapters will be longer then this. This chapter is only short because Kid is merely five, just starting his school life.
