Impressions

Well I would say a moment when I felt awkward or not in my safe zone was my first week of the program. When I first came to the program I was late on my deadline to join the program, and I got accepted thanks to Jonathan little John and Jenny. It was weird since, I was that one kid walking with a teacher through the hallway. The looks on their faces, that looked as if they were waiting for me to drop my guard. It almost felt like I was in a prison and I was the new comer people took advantage of. But I just looked straight forward without hesitation.

 I hear them talking to one another saying look that kid being brought by the teacher. At that point I felt so uncomfortable knowing I wasn’t wanted here by anyone. After Jenny and I turn the corner of the hallway I see my class which I walk in there is this old lady welcoming me to her class. At that moment felt some ease, that least someone wanted to say hello or welcome to me. But that was short lived next I knew Jenny told me that I was going to be transferred to a different class. I paused at that moment; the first person to be nice isn’t going to be my teacher. She then tells me that I am going to be in a class where a friend of hers is going to teach.

She tells me, his name is Brad at point felt a little of the tension I had sort of disappeared. Walk next to Brad’s class room. Only two students are there Brad walks in he seems as he is a nice guy. So I tell myself this might work. But then I stop and think , there is another teacher that’s when Caitlynn walks by to be honest I was a little scared when she walked in I thought she was a little mean. Not saying is now but that was the first impression I got from her. After seeing the class and teachers I thought that this is a class I work with. Now, I feel that people I am meeting here help me better understand that we must leave our comfort to get new experiences, that can be good for oneself.
