New Day
birds are chirping, mr sun is rising, flowers are wonderfully swaying as the wind is gently howling.
A fresh new day indeed, I checked my phone for some important emails from the company and got up from my bed and went directly to the bathroom.
Its quite funny to think that an Umbridge freshmen is already working in a prestigious company.
This is not my dream but I have to, I don't like the idea of owning a company at the age of 18. I love my family so I must take responsibility.
I still have months left before I officially own Export Corp, one of the biggest exportation company in the world.
Sometimes we really need to disregard the things we loved to do for the things that we must do.
As the eldest of our family, I hold the biggest responsibility and that is to preserve our businesses and to bring and continue our family's legacy.
Today is my first day as a college student taking Business Administration course major in Marketing at Umbridge University.
I am not new to this field, I undergone a lot of trainings since I was high school. I just have to get my college degree.
I'm almost done taking shower, I took one last deep breath and said.
"You can do this, Alicia Selene Peters."
I went straightly to my walk in closet and decided to wear some navy blue cropped top polo and highwaisted black pants paired with white sneakers.
After dressing up, inactivate ko muna ang room ko.
"Andrea, activate. give me the summary of my schedule"
"Goodmorning miss Selene. Today's schedule is;

"Thank you, ben & ben playlist activate please."
Few more seconds and the music starts playing. My usual daily routine habang nag aayos sa sarili.
It is indeed a long day ahead. Sanay narin ako sa ganito, everyday is a work day for me. Mas naging hectic nga lang this time kasi may school na naman, pero nung summer whole day akong nasa company at marami rami narin akong nadaluhan na business parties and meetings. Way back in my highschool years, sa company lang talaga ako learning and growing at this summer lang ako inallow ni daddy to attend business meetings to seek for business partners at luckily walang party ang hindi ko nakukuhanan ng business partner that's why dad is pleased to knew about this milestone.
Kaya in return he gave me choices where to study, Harrison University or Umbridge University. Well basically both schools are great or should I say excellent and the most known schools for business. Pero mas pinili ko ang Umbridge dahil wala kaming legacy sa school na ito, both my parents graduated in Harrison and parehos silang kilala sa skwelahang iyon at ayoko namang pumasok at makilala ng walang kahirap hirap. Well, I need to prove myself that I can also be like them.
I stared blankly at the mirror looking my bare face while drying my hair.
I am praying that this day would be great, puro motivations lang ang iniisip ko habang inuna kong ayusin ang aking buhok.
After such, I applied light natural makeup, only concealer, and compact powder sa base, brushed my brows and applied a little eyebrow powder to fill, mascara for the eyes, and my all time favorite tony moly liptint.
Nagsuot narin ako ng silver Philip Stein ko na watch with black strap, some earrings na maliit, and a gold necklace with A pendant on it. Regalo kasi ito ni mom last Christmas. At sinuot narin ang eyeglasses ko, ayoko kasing mag contacts sa school.
Few more touches, setting sprays, vanilla scented perfume. And I'm done.
Checked the time and I have an hour left to eat my breakfast before my class starts.
