It was a new term and on every first

It was the first day of my new life‚ the life that I was going to spend buried in books‚ cramming to meet deadlines and running to class‚ late as ever.

I felt excited for the same reasons‚ my family. I can earn my degree and get a better paying job than my current EMS job.

The first day is always the hardest. You go from being the leaders of the school‚ to the babies of the school. It was the first day and everybody was full of both excitement and fear. I looked around‚ I saw a bunch of crowded newbies all around me‚ anxiously awaiting the bell‚ at the start the only person I could recognise was Chiara. Chiara is one of my best friends; we went through primary school together. Gradually more and more people showed up‚ until I could barely move. A few of them
