I have been excited about this camping ever since it was announced on our flag ceremony last week. Freshmen like me will be partnered with seniors. They will serve as our guide since they already experienced this back when they were freshmen like us. It has been two months since I started high school but I haven't gain many friends. I can talk to my classmates to ask for assignments or to be pairs with me on a project, but I never really get to open up to anyone. In order to do that, we need common ground first. We need to establish our friendship through mutual like over a thing and develop that fondness into something deeper. I haven't found anyone in my class who likes the songs I listen to or takes pictures of landscapes on their free time.

I did, however, found one from the seniors.

His name is Im Jaebum, the president of the student council. Everyone knows him not only for that fact but also because he is fiercely sexy. He doesn't spare a gaze to anyone he doesn't know, not unless you're going to be punished for breaking a school rule. By then, you'll have to pray to the gods for the president not to be as ruthless as the rumours make him out to be. And that prayer won't work. He was able to have six students kicked out for various reasons, all in two months time. The school has been peaceful ever since.

Because of this, it's hard to believe that President Im actually has a soft side. Well, it isn't really much of a soft side but rather a side that can appreciate things. They think he sees the world in black and white, threatening or outright punishing anyone that goes against what's right. But no. One day, when I was sitting at the corner most part of the library, I saw him outside through the window. He was holding a camera and capturing the clouds above. I can't forget his smile when he checks out the picture. He seems to be fond of calm colours and I think it's because he himself has a calm soul, despite the otherwise appearance.

Also, during the flag ceremony when my class is assigned to lead, I was the one manning the sound system. We couldn't find the CD with the hymn we must sing that day. He showed up upon hearing our dilemma and told us to use his phone because he has the hymn downloaded there. I had to look for the specific file so I browsed his phone, expecting that it will be full of graduation marches or anything that you wouldn't normally find on a high schooler's phone. But then I read some of the songs names and couldn't help but feel amazed when I found familiar ones. He's the only one I know who has as much RnB songs as I do. It made me feel like we have some sort of connection.

Now, don't think I'm expecting anything to happen between me and President Im during the camping. I just want to give myself the chance to interact with different people. Maybe I will find someone in the seniors who likes the same things as me. It's impossible to befriend President Im so I can try on that person instead. We will be travelling in cars so I'll start with talking to whoever will become my seatmate.


Aside from being late because I stayed up until morning trying to pack up the whole house and didn't hear my alarm, I also didn't expect that it will rain. Way to start such an exciting day. I was already halfway to school when the clouds suddenly pour. I just walk to school and never learned to bring an umbrella so I'm thankful to have my hoodie as I ran the other half. I can see some students along with a few teachers waiting by the shed in front of our school. Everyone else is getting in the cars lined up in front of the shed so I quickly go to the nearest teacher.

"Oh, why didn't you use an umbrella?" she asks when I stopped in front of her. She probably saw me running from afar. I know her as Miss Cherry, the Home Economics teacher and facilitator of the camping.

"I don't have an umbrella," I answer while shrugging my hoodie off me. It's drenched but it was thick enough not to let my uniform get wet too. "Can I know which car I'm assigned to ride?"
