Well, this is it -- HIGH SCHOOL!
Yes, Jovan started high school this past Wednesday, and on the way there when I asked him how nervous he was, his response was: "I'm not nervous, it's just a regular school like my other school (his previous school) except with regular clothes and different kids! 'Maybe it hasn't dawned on him yet', I thought, as he got out of the car. Because as all of us know, high school is a big deal! Especially after attending the same school from kindergarten to 8th grade.
But hey, you know what they say about firstborns being confident, leaders, etc. -- those traits definitely describe Jovan and radiated from him as he walked into the school, without a care in the world.
That day I couldn't wait to leave work so I could hear all about Jovan's first day, and of course I bombarded him with questions when I got home; "did you make any friends? Did you know anybody? How were your teachers? Who did you sit with in the lunchroom? Did you like your classes?"...until he asked me to stop lol.
After laughing at me for a little bit, he told me his teachers were amazing, he sat with the freshmen football players in the lunchroom -- I guess it helped that he started the football weight training sessions a few weeks before school started :) -- and he did actually have some classes with a few students he knew from his old school.
All in all, it was a good first day. If this is a glimpse into the next three years and ten months, then it'll all be good!
