" Your first day of high school can be super cool ... or totally awkward. Don&amp;#039;t worry, for pretty much everyone it&amp;#039;s a combo of both. So if you do any of these things, just know that you&amp;#039;re not alone.  1. You can&amp;#039;t get your locker to open. You tried writing the instructions and combination on your hand, but it got smeared after gym class, and now you don&amp;#039;t know if that&amp;#039;s a two or a three. Not that you have any idea how to open your locker anyway. Who can keep up with &amp;quot;turn it backwards twice then forward once, then go past zero&amp;quot;\u2014too much!  2. You actually bring all of your books to class. Even if you could open your locker, you have no idea where your next class is let alone how to get back to your locker during the couple of minutes between classes, so you break your back carrying around five huge textbooks. With that overstuffed backpack, you might as well have freshman written across your back. 3. You and your friends innocently sit down at a random empty table in the cafeteria. You don&amp;#039;t realize that there&amp;#039;s been an unspoken seating chart in place for years\u2014and that table is for seniors only. #Awkward. 4. Your parents drop you off every day for the first week. Not because you want them to, but because they insist. *Hides behind dashboard* 5. You&amp;#039;re still trying to figure out if #FreshmanFriday is a real thing. You&amp;#039;re so nervous about getting stuffed in a locker or tripped by an upperclassmen and falling on your face that you secretly dread Fridays. 6. You carry your schedule around with you everywhere. And you have it pulled up on your phone and taped inside your notebook (in case your phone dies, or something). You&amp;#039;re doing anything to avoid walking into the wrong class by accident. But you do anyway, because freshman. 7. You have at least two weeks of #OOTDs planned. You cleared out your middle school wardrobe, spent all your summer savings on cool, new &amp;quot;high school&amp;quot; clothes, and you&amp;#039;ve been planning your back-to-school outfits since summer began. 8. Your bag is stocked with extra pens, pencils, notebooks, hair ties...you name it. You&amp;#039;re prepared for everything. Your school supplies may or may not be (definitely are) color-coordinated.  9. You smile at everyone. Until you learn the hard way that NO ONE makes eye contact with *insert scary senior girl&amp;#039;s name* 10. You take your backpack with you to every single class. Because you didn&amp;#039;t go all out on the fiercest backpack in the history of backpacks for it to get dusty in some old locker. At least that&amp;#039;s what you tell yourself after it&amp;#039;s been two weeks, and you STILL can&amp;#039;t open your locker.  11. You wake up early and don&amp;#039;t hit snooze! You wake up EXTRA early because you&amp;#039;re just way too excited about the first day of high school. And you text all your friends to coordinate your arrivals, so you don&amp;#039;t have to walk through those double doors alone.  12. You nervously scan the cafeteria for anyone you know to sit with at lunch. So you didn&amp;#039;t really hang with Emily last year, but you can both sit together at lunch and share how painfully awkward your first day has been.  13. You suck up to upperclassmen. You&amp;#039;re hoping being a kissass will save you come #FreshmanFriday.  14. You&amp;#039;re already scoping out prom dates\u2014and it&amp;#039;s only the first week ... of freshman year. You know that junior prom is still two years away, but you&amp;#039;re so excited that officially being in high school means you&amp;#039;re that much closer to prom. Plus, there are so many more cuties to crush on now! 15. You move in a girl pack. You won&amp;#039;t do anything\u2014enter the school, go to the bathroom, walk to class\u2014without at least two besties with you at all times.
