What an exciting day! The day before school begins. The last day to play all day. The last day to be wild and silly with my friends. The day I get to meet the teacher and see my classroom. The day I get to see my school supplies and pack them into my backpack. This is the longest day ever!
Time drags on, I'm too excited. I guess I should get my supplies ready for school. I looked at the list checking off my supplies. I sharpened my number two pencils and put it into my supply box. I packed everything I had into my backpack. It was almost too tight. I could barely zip it. That only took a minute or two.
I guess I could pick out what to wear on my first day. Should I make an impression wearing something nice or should I just wear play clothes and plan to get dirty? Will the other kids make fun of me if I dress nice or silly? My mom insists I should wear something nice. She wants to take pictures on my first day. She picks out my school clothes and hangs them on the back of my bedroom door. A brand new outfit she picked just for school. Too bad I didn't get brand new shoes to go with it.
A restless night lies ahead of me as the thrilling dreams play in my head. I'm terrified yet excited. I have a million questions. Will I know what to do or where to go? Will I like my teacher? Will my teacher like me? Will I make new friends? Will I find my old friends in my classroom again? What is for lunch? When is recess?
Yawn... I'm tired but I cannot sleep. If I sleep the night will go faster and the first day of school will be here. Yawn... I close my eyes tight but questions keep coming. Will I get to go to the library? What about P.E.? Oh I wonder if I have music this year! How do I make my mind quit talking! Maybe I should count until I fall asleep. 1... 2... Yawn... 3... 4... 5...Yawn... 6...ZZzzzzz
