PRESENT TIME......
GIANNA AUTUMN'S POV
4:30 Am...
My great alarm clock keeps ringing but I ignored it, then it went automatically to snooze mode and I pulled the covers up to my shoulders and try to go back to sleep.
FEW MINUTES LATER
4:45 Am...
My alarm clock rings again, I get up and go straight to the bathroom to take a shower.
I wear my black skinny jeans, a white collared blouse and my white sneakers. Put a little press powder, apply a little lip balm and blowers my hair in results to having a soft curls and I'm off to breakfast.
I saw my family and greeted them good morning.
"It's your official first day of being the owner of Grey Academic University. Are you nervous?" Dad asked.
"Well, kinda. But I'm thinking that I better face it now than later, besides I have all of you to guide me" I said smiling.
Nanay Fe came with a tray and serve us breakfast and we eat happily.
I need to be early today because I need to talk to Mr Fernandez and the Deans, so Manong Jimmy drove me to the university and Mom to her boutique, because Dad and Kuya Win have a very important meeting to attend to.
AT THE UNIVERSITY
I have a short meeting with the principal and Deans at my own office here in the university.
"Mr. Fernandez, how many 4th year college scholars do we have?" I asked.
"If I'm not mistaken, we have 20 scholars in college. In 4th year college we have 4 scholars" He informs me.
"Can I have a copy of the names of GAU's scholars?" I asked politely.
"Sure Miss Grey, may I know the reason why?" He asked curiously.
"I'm planning on conducting an exchange students program for at least this whole school year" I informed him.
"In what department,Miss Grey?" Mr. Fernandez asked.
"I want to have the names of top 10 students in every departments"
"Sure Miss Grey, I'll get it right away" He complied.
FLASHBACK
"Are you nervous" Dad asked.
"Well, kinda. But I'm thinking that I better face it now than later, besides I have all of you to guide me" I said smiling.
"Any plans?" Dad asked excitedly.
"Well I do, but it'll be a lot of work and decision making" I answered truthfully.
"Is there anything we can do to help?" Mom asked.
"Mom, Dad do you think it's possible to contact any well-known universities in USA for an exchange students program for this whole school year?"
I asked nervously.
"An exchange students program?" Kuya Win asked.
"Well yeah, I'm thinking of letting students to study abroad for at least a month and when they come back, another batch will go, then the next batch, until all the chosen students will get the chance to learn there and come home"
"Wow, that will be amazing!! have you chosen the students for that program?" Mom asked excitedly.
"My plan will start with the scholars, then I will have to asked Mr. Fernandez to collect the names of the top 10 students in each department so we can sort out their monthly schedule for departure" I answered smiling.
