As I walk into my first class, I begin to feel nervous.
Since I'm a huge procrastinator, I waited until the last second to register for my classes, and since I waited until the last second, I didn't have a chance to research my professors.
I take a seat at the nearest empty seat and the professor begins to introduce themself.
"Hello everyone, I am your English 1A teacher!" The Middle aged woman states.
She has a unique accent that I can't put my finger on.
It seems like it could be a mixture of African and maybe French or something like that.
"My name is Professor Carla Lowe."
Carla walks over to her desk and types a few things on her computer.
A slideshow appears on the board behind her and she stands up ready to present her syllabus.
"This class is a very important class because not only will you learn how to improve your writing, each and every one of you need this class to graduate college!" Professor Lowe sends us a warm smile and I find myself smiling back at her.
If the whole class is filled with lectures I'm going to be spaced out most of the time and I'll most likely fail because I won't have any of the materials for class and if I don't have materials for class I'll fall behind and I'll-
Shaking my head from my complicated thoughts, I turn my attention back to class.
"A little background about myself! I am a single mother of three young boys! One of them is a senior in high school, a junior in high school, and a sophomore in high school!"
"Damn, someone was busy." Someone beside me states under their breath.
A few people around him chuckle at his joke but I just scoff and run a hand through my hair.
"At least I get more action than you, Chris! This is your third time in this class! Aren't you getting tired of failing it?" Professor Lowe asked as she chuckles to herself.
The whole class erupts in a surge of laughter and 'Oos' and 'Ahhs' escape their mouths.
The Chris character slouches in his seat.
"Alright, alright, settle down everyone!" Miss Lowe says.
I can hear the hint of amusement in her voice.
Maybe this class won't be so boring after all...
Before I know it, the class is over.
I think me and Audree have a couple of hours before our next class, so I believe we have time to go get lunch and chill for a bit.
