Artist Statement: 

I recently moved from Elementary School to Junior High. The majority of my friends from class last year went to different schools. I was really worried. Would I make any friends? I imagined walking the halls and eating lunch alone. To my surprise, I made more friends in the first week alone than I had at my previous school and found Junior High to be better than I expected. This composition starts hesitant and becomes confident, like my experience at Junior High. I am hopeful because I have awesome friends and now I know that expectations aren't always reality.
