It was my first day

It was my first day at college. I was nervous. I was intimidated, but above all I felt insignificant and tiny-speck-like. My university was located in a small town which is not used to seeing college girls and boys. Grooming was a luxury and when people wear shoes that costs two month's rent of my house it bothered me a little and when I heard and learnt that it is normal to wear shoes of that cost, it bothered me a lot. I said to myself: Let it go man, you are poor! 

I was strolling the grounds with my dad and my friend, Hash from school who had also joined in my university and happened to take all the same classes as mine. It was the first time he was meeting my dad and was trying to talk to him a little. Isn't that every little boy's dream? to impress an adult, specially a parent. we then got sorted into different classes and we got our schedules for the semester. I let my dad go home and went on to my classroom. It was on the first floor and at the end of the hallway. I was as usual sitting neither in the last nor in the first row. I paid attention to all the various rules and regulations as well as the system of grading followed in college. This was new as we don't have a similar system in schools. 

After meeting every professor, we came to the end of the day and I started noticing the people with whom I'm going to spend the next four years of my life. It was scary at first as I realized all these people looked either like cannibals or like chauffeurs. After the classes were done, I met up with hash again and learnt that the same happened in his class as well and started home. Over all my first day in college didn't disappoint.
