As the alarm sound pierced through the silence of the room, she groggily reached over to silence it. Her eyes squinted, fighting against the brightness of the morning sun streaming through the curtains. The weight of exhaustion tried to pull her back into the warm embrace of the bed, but determination pushed through.

With a deep breath, she swung her legs over the edge and planted her feet on the floor. The initial shock of cold tiles sent shivers up her spine, but she welcomed the sensation. Standing up, she claimed victory over the temptation of comfort, ready to face whatever the day had in store.

As Y/n stepped onto the university grounds, she was immediately met with a familiar voice calling out her name. Sasha, her eccentric and vivacious friend, bounded over with contagious energy, her enthusiasm shining through her wide smile.

"You look HOT today!" Sasha exclaimed, her eyes filled with admiration.

Y/n couldn't help but chuckle, appreciating Sasha's unfiltered compliments. "Hot? Only because you're around, Sasha. You make everything look hotter by simply being here."

Just as Y/n replied, Mikasa, her level-headed and ever-stylish friend, joined the conversation. Her quiet confidence was evident in her serene expression as she nodded at Y/n's attire.

"Great taste in fashion," Mikasa commented, a touch of admiration lacing her words.

Grinning mischievously, Y/n couldn't resist a playful response. "Oh Mikasa, you have an eye for fashion and charm. If you think I look hot today, just wait until you see what I have planned for tomorrow. I'll make sure to leave you speechless."

Sasha burst into laughter, her infectious joy filling the air. Mikasa just smiled. Y/n noticed something happened.

As our trio, consisting of myself (Y/n), Sasha, and Mikasa, strutted confidently to our morning class, the campus hummed with youthful anticipation. The sun painted a golden hue on our path, and I couldn't help but be curious about our plans for the day.

With a raised eyebrow and a sly smile, I inquired, "So, ladies, spill the tea—what's the agenda?"

Sasha, the ultimate foodie always in the know, grinned mischievously. "Guess who just discovered this trendy new bakery that opened up downtown? Their donuts are like edible works of art, and we simply cannot miss indulging ourselves in a sweet symphony of flavors!"

Mikasa, the effortlessly cool and focused member of our squad, leaned in, her voice carrying a hint of excitement. "After class, there's this rad vintage pop-up shop that just opened in the area. I've been dying to check it out and snag some unique finds. Trust me, it's going to be a treasure trove of style and nostalgia."

A grin spread across my face as inspiration struck. "Ladies, let's take it to the next level. We'll kick off the day with a afternoon snack at the bakery, then hit up the pop-up shop to revamp our wardrobes with retro vibes. And to top it off, we'll finish with a late afternoon picnic in the park, complete with fancy sandwiches and chilled drinks. Our Instagram game will be on fire!"

As we trudged our way to our morning classes, a collective sigh escaped our lips. The once vibrant campus seemed to have lost its luster, casting a dull and monotonous aura over our surroundings.

With a feigned enthusiasm, I grumbled, "Ugh, can you believe we have to endure another mind-numbing lecture on calculus? It's like watching paint dry..."

Sasha gave a half-hearted nod, her eyes glazed over. "Tell me about it. I'd trade this class for a never-ending buffet any day. At least that would be entertaining."
