My First Day =)

It was the night before school started. Im sitting by my computer at 1:30 in the morning, restless to sit still, too excited to go to bed, yet too nervous to just watch tv. I kept thinking to myself, "Ahh! tomorrow is the first day of classes!" I think overall, I was just overly excited about everything going on!
After a while, my mom starts yelling at me to go to bed because it's so late and she didnt want me to look like a zombie in school tomorrow haha. So I laid on my bed, and continued talking to my friends on aim from my phone about the next day. I was talking to my friend, Dana about how surreal this all was! We couldnt believe that we were actually COLLEGE STUDENTS! =] Eventually I fell asleep around 2:30 probably?
The next morning, I had class at 12:30. My Gov 101 class. Throughout the whole morning, I just wanted to leave and go to school already! I was sooo excited! But there was still a part of me that was scared to even move... The whole morning, I was afraid of getting lost so I kept looking over the map trying to find my classes, so i could seem like I actually knew where I was going!
By the time it was 11, and I had to take the subway from my parents store... I didnt want to leave. Haha I suddenly became so nervous and I wished that time would just stop because I was just so scared! =( But I did 5 minutes later haha.
The subway ride was quick and when I walked out... As I walked down the street to school, I continued to feel all these mixed feelings. I was nervous and more excited than anything at the same time! I was scared of getting lost, not making friends, and I didnt know anything about my professors. I was a wreckk! haha.
As I approached the front of North Hall, I took a look at the building and thought, this is where I'll be going to school for the next 4 years! I should embrace this opportunity and make the best of it! I walked in and swiped my card for the first time and it all hit me! Wow! Im really in college! As I walked down the lobby, I pretended to act like I knew where I was going when I had no clue! I couldnt even remember the map I studied earlier that day haha =/ I sat down in the lobby, took out my schedule to see the room and just sat there studying the map. Haha i felt a bit out of place because I looked around and there was no one that seemed as lost as me, but eventually... I found the stairs I needed to take and I went there. I finally managed to find my room. I sat down and I started talking to a few people next to me. Then, the professor came in and started talking to us. After the class was over, I took a breath and thought to myself, "that wasnt bad. maybe im going to love college =)"
Coming from Long Island and barely ever going to the city, this was something totalllyy new for me! It was such a big change for me not seeing the same faces in my grade that ive known so well for the last 17 years.
But after these past two weeks, I can honestly say that I love college (IN THE CITY! haha)

Till the next post, take care everyone =)
