It's strange, really, how the campus feels both like home and like a place where I still don't quite belong. I spend my days walking through crowds of people, exchanging half-hearted smiles with classmates, all while feeling like I'm watching myself from a distance. It's a strange kind of isolation, knowing so many people but being so disconnected from them.
My time here has been a blur of lectures, late-night study sessions, and occasional attempts to make friends. Some days, I wonder if I'll ever truly find my place. But, every now and then, there's a moment-something small, like a conversation after class or an unexpected encounter-that makes it all feel worth it.
Little do I know, everything is about to change. The quiet, uneventful life I've been living? It's not going to stay that way for long.
