When it Rains it Pours
No seriously, pouring rain isn’t fun ESPECIALLY on your first day of college.

This was the theme of the day, a pure and positive attitude kept me cool, calm and collected. Despite having to journey my campus in soggy shoes and with wet hair my day turned out pretty perfect. The worst part of my day was concurring my fear of driving over the highway for the first time. I consider this a huge victory because although I was very worried about doing this I was worried about other parts of the day a lot more. Lo and behold everything turned out fine, as usual. I did get lost, as I had feared I got lost plenty of times but eventually, I found my way. Now, I feel like I know the 4 buildings I traveled through like the back of my hand. The class I dreaded the most, math class, actually turned out to be extremely fun, and even better I’m confident that I will find enjoyment in the entire course as a whole. Lastly, the teacher I dreaded meeting the most turned out to be the sweetest, most wholesome teacher I have ever met despite all the bad reviews she has on “ rate my professor.”
Indeed, if anyone comes and tries to tell you that all you have to do is be positive to get through the day the natural response is to reply “ easier said than done.” This however did not apply to me today, I sincerely don’t know where it came from but I couldn’t help but smile no matter what happened to me. Someone must have prayed a whole lot today for me because God certainly didn’t disappoint. Despite having been alone the majority of the day I never felt alone it was like my optimism was incarnate and walking right beside me holding my hand.
Overall, I’m just here to document my first day of college, a day I worried so much about but ended up enjoying ten times more. I hope to try to keep every day like this day. Although that’s not entirely possible, there is no damage done in trying. College is going to be… interesting. Stay with me as I learn how to navigate its variety of twists and turns.
