I packed my clothes into four shared closets with my group of friends. The schedule said the senior activities would start at six o'clock on the first day, so we all had several hours to freestyle and do whatever we wanted. We gathered in front of the hotel just in time for the time to go.
And the way to make everyone in the room have an agenda is to take a photo and send it on LINE group.
"When you say something like that, do you think that Phi Jeans will let herself lose face?"
Toey asked worriedly, sitting on the bed choosing clothes to wear tonight.
"Maybe she's waiting for another chance to tease you,"
Praewa added.
"I have nothing to lose."
I stopped doing everything and laid down on the soft bed that was next to Bew. One room can accommodate four people.
"Even if I just stay still, that crazy girl will find a way to tease me."
"Then don't cry and runny nose like a kindergartener who gets her candy snatched again."
My best friend's teasing words made the other two friends unable to hold back their laughter. I made a pouty face before Bew made a face like she had remembered something.
"Oh, do you guys remember our plan?"
Then the rest of us smiled. Praewa, the chatty one, was the one who replied,
"I remember. Do you want to go now?"
.

The three of us carried dark colored cloth bags to buy liquor, soda, cigarettes, and took a foam bucket to put ice in to cool the drinks we bought, and after hiding it under my bed and Bew's were ready. The four of us went for a walk along the beach to take some souvenir photos like everyone else.
"Our management star is beautiful,"
Bew said as she leaned back in her reclining chair. Between Praewa and Toey, only I sat down and wrote my name in English on the sand.
"Where's the management star?"
Toey asked, looking around for her.
"Shit, she's not around here. I found her at a convenience store."
"Oh, is that the pretty one who paid at a different counter from us?"
"That's right, but it's strange. She's not a university star. The nursing faculty just took her."
"Her abilities are probably good."
I chose to ignore the two of them talking sideways and instead looked around for any new information. The third-year seniors were starting to form strange faces. It wasn't hard to guess how tired we first-years would be on our first night.
"What should I buy for snacks tonight?"
Bew's question made me pause in my daze.
"Umm... I don't know. Grilled squid would be fine."
Just as she finished speaking, the sound of the announcer over the megaphone called for the younger ones to gather. Under the coconut tree arch, Toey rolled her eyes because she was going to call her boyfriend to report it.
In this situation, we can't disobey orders. I got up and brushed off the sand that was staining my pants and feet before walking to join the group with her friends.
First, we have to divide into groups of 5 people, who can stay in separate rooms. For the remaining three days, we will use this group to do various activities. Of course, the four of us will be together, and the other person who came to ask to join the group, the point is that the woman in his room had to be called to stay with him, but he came straight to me.
