new environment, new faces.
in approximately 11 hours from now, id be on NIE campus, looking like.. well idk what id look like but i know id feel a little confused, a little awkward, a little alone, a lot of scared, and maybe but hopefully not, a little lost. :/
the last time i found myself in a similar situation-stepping into junior college- was a good 3 years ago. at least then i had a bunch of people from hai sing to make it seem less intimidating if anything. it's important to note that then i was rather skeptical about making friends during my 2 years there. reckon it's not too good a thought to have in my head just when im starting school huh.
but here i am, well, there id be tomorrow, surrounded by people ive never interacted with in my life, ever. not a single soul. and that freaks me the hell out. on top of that, ive never once set foot on the NIE campus, it's so far from where i lived all my life and i dont know how to get there or get out of there. all these uncertainties and strangeness just makes me very, very, very uneasy.
so here's my plan for tomorrow..
dad's fetching me to school early morning thank god. *daddy's girl* i am so spoilt yes i know. peace. i shall walk around, assuming im early [i will be] and calm my nerves before the bulk of the others appear, assuming they dont have the same plan as i! i will attend the briefing like an anti-social, register for FOC, collect my matric card, collect my orientation pack.. then go home after. i will try to appear less of a freak when people talk to me. oh, and smile to get through everything else.
sounds relatively easy.
now deep breath gloria, deep breath.
