many teenagers look forward to as a chance to begin a new chapter of their lives. I looked at it as an escape from hell. In high school I was a different person‚ an angry person‚ who struggled so much I was sent to a resource room where I would get extra help on tests and homework.

As I scroll through the unknown hallways of high school for the first time‚ anxious and worried of the unexpected I was about to anticipate‚ my palms start the tip of shaking heavily and sweating uncontrollably.
