The late August sun slants through the blinds, painting golden stripes across your flannel-print bedspread. A mix of static and a distant Nirvana riff drifts from your brother's room. The familiar scent of burnt toast and coffee wafts up the stairs—another first day. You pull on your favorite worn-out band tee, catching your reflection: a mix of nervous energy and practiced nonchalance. Your little brother shouts something from downstairs. Your sister's already gone. You grab your backpack, heavy with notebooks and a Walkman. The front door squeaks open, and the world of hallways, lockers, and new beginnings waits. What kind of year will this be, you?
