Today was our first day and I was more than excited to finally attend and see what's all the fuss was about. Why everyone was looking forward to go to college.
"Henry! Hurry up! I need to pee!" I knocked harder on the door, he was closer to the bathroom and I tried my best to run as fast as I can to try and get there first but he beat me to it.
"I'm almost done!" He yelled from the other side of the door, I waited for about five more minutes before knocking again. Henry finally opened. the door and I rushed inside slamming the door behind me to get some relief.
I showered and cleaned myself before going up to my room to start getting ready. Finally I got rid of that stupid school uniform and I'm able to wear whatever I want.
"What should I wear?" I asked myself, this was art/music school after all. All the students were gonna be looking like supermodels, I needed to wear something nice and presentable for my first day.
I chose a black crop top and a very short white skirt, I grabbed my black platform boots from the closet and put them next to the bed, I put on a light makeup and made sure my hair was presentable and pretty before running downstairs with my boots in my hands.
Henry was putting his shoes on so I started doing the same, he had on white pants and a simple dark green polo shirt.
"I wanted to match the car" he said with a proud smile, I rolled my eyes at his silliness and we both grabbed our stuff and headed out. We agreed that the first three days of the week I'll drive us to school and three days after those he will and since it was Monday, it was my turn.
The course that I chose was a (BFA) a Bachelor of Fine Arts, it's an undergraduate degree where, we, students learn about the history, skills, methodology and industries associated with our artistic field of choice. Mine obviously was music, but there were other fields such as theater, arts, dance, film and photography.
I stopped my car in the parking lot, I saw about a hundred cars parked and still had empty space. I was starting to feel a little bit anxious, but I knew as soon as I find my classroom I'll calm down and feel better..
"I'll see you when you're done" Henry gave me a side hug when we got out of the car, I waved him goodbye and put my apartment and car keys inside my bag.
I made my way inside the building and I was glad I wasn't under dressed, people here looked so pretty and appealing to look at. All dressed to impress.
Some smiled at me and I smiled back, I looked at the schedule on my phone and the map that was sent with it so I can find the classroom or the amphitheater I'm looking for.
The good thing is I only had two subjects a day, which was amazing, I'll have time to rest and do homework and maybe go out.
"Composition: 20th-century innovations" was the first subject, I reached the amphi and the door was already open, a few students were inside but it was empty. I quietly made my way to the middle row and sat down.
Fours hours of this, then an hour break, then four hours of a different subject "Creative software skills"
A few minutes later, more students started to walk inside to fill up almost half of the empty seats. Everyone looked so young, apart from two guys sitting at the very front, they looked a bit older.
"Good morning everyone, my name is Mr Johnson and I'll be your Composition 20th-century innovations professor, you can call me Mr J or Dr J whatever you feel comfortable with." An old man with long white hair said with a smile on his face, he looked so welcoming and I was sure I was going to love his class.

"I'm not even lying Henry, he didn't breathe, he didn't blink, he didn't even sit down for the whole four hours." I whined, Henry chuckled and took a bite of his apple as he listened to me complain.
"And that's not even the worse part, he didn't let anyone participate. He said first day is always for the professor, like what is that even supposed to mean?!" I put my head down on the table in frustration,
"And you know I love history but the way he made it sound so boring is frustrating me" I didn't even look up at Henry at this point, I was too tired and too frustrated. I never knew my first day and my first subject were going to gothis way.
"You'll get used to it Sam, it's uni not highschool things are much harder and boring here" Henry said and got up to throw the trash,
"What about you? How was your first class?" I asked leaning on my palm, he sat down and took a sip of his water.
"It was boring, so much math. I like math though" I don't like science, maths, physics, anything that's related to calculation and numbers makes me sick. I did get good grades on the subjects I just hated them and wished we didn't have to study them.
"Ew"
"I know" he said with a chuckle, my phone alarm starting going off. I put an alarm to remind me when was my next class.
"Well, I'll see you in the parking lot at 5" I waved at Henry and walked away from the shared cafeteria we had on campus.
On my way to my class, I decided to check what I had tomorrow.
Morning: "Folk music studies: resources and research materials".
Afternoon: "Performance studies. (Shared with art major)
What is that supposed to mean? We have a shared subject with art students? I don't know how to feel about it, I mean it's great because I get to meet more people from different majors but what if art majors are stuck up assholes, that's what Henry told me the other day.
Someone told him when he went to give his documents that art and fashion students are the most hated here because they were too full of themselves. But I can't judge until I meet them tomorrow.
Surprisingly, the afternoon went smoothly and pretty quick as well. Because we got to use our computers, and softwares that are related to music. It was much more interesting than what I had in the morning, and the teacher was a young man and not an old guy who wouldn't even stop to breathe.
"Did you know, there are clubs we could join" Henry stated, we were back at the apartment having dinner. Tonight he made some spaghetti with tomato sauce, I offered to cook but he declined my offer.
"Like what?"
"Well, I didn't find any of them interesting. But I think you'd love to join the music club" I took a sip of the drink I had, Henry was in his beach shorts devouring the spaghetti he made like he haven't ate in days.
"Hmm I don't think so, too much for my brain, I don't want to overload it. Before, during and after? I'll go crazy." I am a crazy musician but I still have some respect for my brain, or I'm gonna end up saturating the damn thing.
After eating and cleaning the kitchen, Henry decided to go for a swim to try out the pool, he asked me to join but I declined, I didn't have a swimming suit and I was sleepy from my very tiring first day at university.
Perhaps tomorrow will be a better day.
