Don't be afraid to try something you never did before, you might end up liking it ~Lyrical

Lyrical's POVWe sat in the car, looking at the massive, spaced out campus that was behind the large building in front. It looked like a regular boarding school area plus an extra extent of a football field and a college campus combined. Oh yeah, it was very very enormous. The width and length of this place was very intimidating.
"What if i get lost?? What if when i'm lost, no one finds me?? what if a creep tries something or bullies attack me??" Question after question was left unanswered as we all ditched the car and approached the large structure, i assumed was the sign in building.
I felt my legs quivering with every step i took and i tried to swallow down the agonizing heart beat that somehow managed it's way into my throat. Once the doors swept open by our gentle push, my eyes nearly popped out of my sockets, looking at the atmosphere in front of me.
There was a numerous splash of pink and blue. Some standing by tall men and women that i'm pretty sure wasn't staff and, most of all, the name of the school that was bolted above the small desk
'CGL Boarding School'.
i read it again and again, standing like a statue while my eyes were glued onto the title. Not noticing the line started moving, my brother nudged me making me lose my balance and i bumped into one of the girls in front of me. She looked back, with a glare and i'm pretty positive, my covered mouthed gasp and apologies wasn't enough to make her forgive me.
I hung my head, stepping back, insecurely. Wow haven't been here three minutes yet and you're already making enemies, i scolded myself. I felt a pat on my shoulder and looked up to meet my mother's smiling face. A small grin then found its way onto my face but quickly escaped when i heard my name being called.
I looked up at my mom and brother for support and gratefully they both gave me a tight hug whispering everything will be alright and that they loved me. Letting go, they gave me a reassuring smile and i picked up my bags, walking over to the front desk as my name was announced once more.
"Yes, that's me" i spoke, lowly. I looked at the lady, clothed in an all red dress in front of me with her hair down in tight curls. Her name tag read, Lola in all caps. She gave a smile and dropped a small packet in front of me. Assuming i was suppose to sign my name, i picked up a pen but Lola had stopped my hand, refusing me to lift it any further.
"That's just a packet for the campus, like the map, activities and such" she laughed
"Heh, right" i tried to play off as i felt a shade of red going across the top of my brown cheeks.
Embarrassed, i quickly made my way out the office and onto campus when she handed me my key card. I stopped, dropping some of my stuff to catch my breathe. running was not my thing, nor anything including exercise. I whipped out my emergency sippy that had apple juice already inside.
Taking gulps of the refreshing beverage, i opened my eyes, nearly spitting it out. Before me was a kind of place i could only dream or fantasize about, a kind of place where i space out in, when i'm in class, the kind of place that my dream heaven would hopefully look like.
I looked at my sippy cup, astonished like something was in my apple juice. This can't be real, this can't be true, this can't be realization right now. I tried to put in my mind. I kept closing my eyes and reopening them, pinching myself to prove that this is no more than a dream. But the longer i kept doing it, the more i realized that this paradise....
Was real
A big smile sketched itself on my face as i stared at the campus.
There were four dorms on each side, the right ones were pink and the left ones were blue with two black ones in the middle.
