My long wavy hair swayed on the wind. I looked up to my new school. I like it better than my previous school, sorry. Nagsimula na akong maglakad papasok.
On my way, I counted how many buildings they have. I was almost amazed at how great the landscape is.
Students here are mostly from famous and elite families, like a typical cliche from a fiction book, but the foundation firmly address that this school have students that came from all walks of life.
Well, maybe yes but only those who are worthy and great were accepted as scholars.
"Porter!"
Napalingon ako sa pinanggalingan ng tinig na iyon. I saw my long time and childhood friend Zanyea, smiling and waving at me. Napangiti ako at lumapit siya.
"I'm so happy! Finally, after millions of decades, magkasama na ulit tayo sa iisang school!" she's exaggerating again.
"Hmm, yeah, gusto na rin kasi ni Mama na lumipat na ako ng school."
"Si tita lang ang may gusto? So napilitan ka lang?" her eyes squinted at me.
Natawa ako sa biro niya.
"Tara na, ilibot mo na muna ako."
"Demanding," she whispered jokingly.
I laughed at her cheerfulness.
"Let's go to the bulletin first to see what section you are in. It's on the main building."
I nodded.
"The main building is on the center of these five buildings. That's where school officials held their meetings. The faculty, auditorium and our biggest library is also there."
I nodded again.
"The next one on the right is called the center building-"
"Ironic how it's not on the center," I commented.
"I was just about to say that," Zanyea smirked at me and I smirked back. "Back to the topic. The center building is made for leisure while learning. Thus, it is the home of our club rooms, gymnasium, theater and music and arts room. Most events are also held at the center building."
Inilibot ko ang mata ko sa paligid.
"That building at the back of the main building ranked as the most hated building of the students every school year survey," Zanyea pointed the building that can be seen at the side from the main building.
Kung tao lang ang mga building na ito ay mukhang batang nagtatago sa likod ng kanyang ina ngunit sumisilip pa rin ang building na ito. Lumapit kami doon ni Zanyea para makita ang buong disenyo ng building.
I can say that this building is even taller and wider than the main building. I guess, they put it a little bit at the back of the main building para hindi ito masyadong umangat kaysa sa main building. Pero malawak pa rin ito kaya naman makikita mo talaga mula sa gate palang na lima ang building dito.
"Why?"
"Because we spend most if our time there since most of our classes are located there. Ugh."
Seems like Zanyea is one of those students who voted for this most hated building.
"It's called the Astirel building."
"Makes sense."
She shrugged. Itinuro niya naman ang susunod na building.
"Next to the Astirel building is our dormitory. Although pwede namang umuwi, most students and scholars doesn't like going home and wanted to focus on studying. And if you plan to stay in Astirel dormitory, prepare yourself because people might assume that you're competitive at studying," she wrinkled her nose.
