Choose Your Friends (or not)

    It was morning, and I was preparing for my first day of school. This school is meant for acquiring a basic understanding of math and reading. In which I already understood everything and more. Going to school was an opportunity to get acquainted with more humans, right now I only have my parents. It would also probably be a good idea to learn a little more about magic in this world, or just this world in general.

    As I looked back in my database for what to bring to the first day of school, my mother had already pushed me out of the door. Then I realized that because my family was not wealthy or even middle class, actually we were quite poor in terms of wealth. I had to walk to school which was roughly 5km (3mi) away. On my walk to school, I still stared in awe at the simple tricks the street magicians did, like juggling fireballs and making mist out of nothing.

    By the time I got to school most of the kids were already there, I did not understand why they were here before school started. As I pondered the thought, the bell rang signaling all students to come inside the building. While we were walking through the door someone standing beside the door handed out each student a number on a paper ticket. The number represents the locker and classroom we go to. Mine had 13-74 written on it, classroom 13 locker 74. I casually walked into the classroom, and sat in one of the front row seats. When a blond haired kid with nicer looking clothes walked over and said "Who said you could sit in my seat".
