I looked around the school. I never knew schools in Italy could be so huge! I glanced at my schedule again. My first period was English with Mr. Martelli. I tried to ask people to show me where the room is, but they all passed me, going to their lockers. I sighed and sat down on a bench.

This is gonna be a tough year, I thought.

"Chow!" a voice exclaimed, making me jump.

I looked up at a girl, who I didn't even notice that she was standing over me. She had long, black hair and olive skin.

"Um, chow?" I said.

"It means 'hi' or 'hello' in Italian," she told me. "You must be from America." She then started to examine my face. Then her face lit up Spencer's lit-up socks. "Oh, my gosh! You're Carly from the web show, iCarly!"

I nodded. "Yep, that's me."

She then frowned. "Where are Sam and Freddie?"

"They're back in Seattle. I had to move to Italy with my father."

"Oh," she said. "Well, I'm Marcia! Need help finding your class?"

"Yeah," I said as I stood up. I looked down at my schedule one more time. "Mr. Martelli?"

"Oh, I'll walk you there." She grabbed my arm and dragged me through other Italians who didn't bother to help me out. We finally got to the classroom that I was supposed to be in.

"Mr. Martelli?" Marcia said.

A balding man looked over at us, giving us dirty looks.

What's his problem? I thought to myself.

"This is Carly Shay. She's new here."

Everyone looked up and gasped as they saw me.

I smiled at them nervously. "Um, hi," I said.

A few of them whispered to each other excitedly in Italian.

"Have a seat, Miss Shay," Mr. Martelli said as the mean scowl remained on his face.

I looked for an empty seat and found one next to a super cute Italian guy. I fluffed my dark, long hair, making sure it doesn't look like a train wreck, and then turned to the boy.

"Um, hi," I greeted. "I'm Carly."

The guy gave me a confused look.

"I had my own webshow. It was called iCarly. Have you heard of it?"

The confused expression remained on his super attractive face. Then, he turned back to the teacher.

I sighed.

Like I said earlier, this is gonna be a tough year.
