School

School
by Jailah

I miss school. School was always busy. I miss the crowded hallways that I would always complain about. This place means a lot to me surprisingly. It taught me a lot, academically and so much life-wise.  When it comes to your so-called “friends,” and even your family outside of school, you learn who’s really there for you and who will push when you need that motivation. 

To others it's a playground, a fashion show. You need it to start the most important chapter of your life called “adulthood”. I don’t really know how this place is managing because all they keep doing is giving us packets after packets. It feels kinda weird to see it empty because I’m used to seeing so many people in the windows coming and leaving school. Now, I see no one. 

It will change a lot because I don’t really have that much time left in school. Everything will start to feel rushed. The clock is ticking and it gets louder the closer the last day comes, when I walk in official adulthood.
