First Day

"Today is a new day. I can start my day by forgetting all my troubles and starting over."

That is what I say to myself every morning when I get up. It doesn't help throughout the day, but why not try.

Today is the first day. The first day of my new life. New state, new city, new lifestyle, you could say that I am starting completely over, which I am. Even through all of these changes, there is one thing that followed me from Indiana, the memories. The memories that don't allow me to let go are the same ones that drove me away.

In less than 3 hours, I have my first class at Colombia University. Never once in my life would I have thought I would have ended up here, but now that I got away, I'm not sure I ever want to go back. I got into Colombia to become a surgeon , and I haven't even gotten to the point of applying to medical school yet. It all sounds a bit daunting, but it will be worth it. My first class is biology, followed by chemistry and a much needed nap.
--------------------------
"Good morning class, and welcome to Columbia University. I am Professor Olivia Hastings. As the most basic class, I am assuming you are all freshmen. Well, if that is the case, then we should get down to it." the tall, slim brunette in front of the class said.

The rest of the classes were filled with useless rambling and introductions. Right now, I am sitting next to a red head named Abigail, who I was talking to before class got started. She is from somewhere is Texas, and lives right down the hall. Making friends here won't be as bad as I thought.

I still haven't met my roommate, since she isn't at the dorms, and neither is any of her stuff. I find it kind of strange that she missed the first day of college, but oh well. I decorated my dorm 2 weeks ago when I arrived in town for the first time. There are two beds in the room, so I chose the one by the window. I mainly brought things I had from home, so that includes my old maroon comforter, tree backsplash, white rug, and other random stuff. The dorm room is on the top floor, so you can see the city and the campus really well. The window is a seated one, so I put string lights in the window for cuteness. The room turned out just the way I wanted it, so I hope that makes the move a little bit easier.

Hey guys! Sorry for the short chapter, but things are just getting started. My update schedule is going to be every Saturday, so turn on the notifications! The picture above is Beth's dorm room. Thanks!
