The schoolmates seemed to regard me as a fool, and they were probably right.Despite(尽管) my fears, after the first week I finally had my schedule(时刻表、进度表) figured out. Except falling up and down the stairs a couple of times and getting laughed at, high school was turning out(证明是) to be not so bad. It was actually much better than middle s chool and much more challenging.Since then, I've been elected(选举) vice monitor of my class, which wasn't much of a victory si nce only three people ran for(参加...竞选) the four positions.It is normal to be scared(害怕) about a new school.
