Well it's my first day of college, Taylor's College, and I woke up feeling excited with adrenaline pumping through my veins. My heart palpitated with rhythms that would put drummers to shame. Brushing my teeth with haste and gargling faithfully with my mouth cleansing Oral-B, I put on my attire for the day and headed off to college. I was ecstastic to say the least because there was this huge opportunity to meet new people, gain new experiences, acquire more knowledge about the world than I could have ever dreamed of. Plus I was going to get my student id, yay!!

Anyway I arrived at around 8.15 and already there were tens of people squished into a narrow balcony, squirming around to find space to breathe. Making my way up the stairs to join the can of sardines, I thought to myself, "This was it. A chance to really branch out and become a different person". Checking the class roster for 2006/2007, I noticed that two people whom I know from CHS was in the same class as me. I was even more ecstastic because at least I would not be completely alone. I waited for 45 minutes before the doors to the hall opened and everyone went in in orderly fashion, or at least as orderly as a crowd could ever get. Two pieces of paper were shoved into my hands and I was ushered into the hall. I admired the beige painted walls of the hall and its lacquered wooden stage. What set it apart from our school hall was:

1. It is fully air-conditioned.
2. It has a really cool-looking balcony on the second level.
3. It has a second level.
4. There are chairs for the students to sit on.
5. The microphones actually work.
6. It has a projector.

The orientation began with 30 minute speeches from 5 different people, each as "inspiring" as the next. Sadly my enthusiasm for college quickly changed into a notion that orientation days are both prosaic and pretty pointless, but what the hell, I am getting my student id soon!! We went to our respective classes at 12 to meet up with our mentor(basically a classier way of saying form teacher. This is college after all.) and got a schedule for the semester. Oh and I also got my student if after that!! Check it out!


i know,they made an effort to make me look ugly XD



my class schedule.packed indeed!


We spent the rest of the orientation meeting the student council committee, but it was pretty boring, too insignificant to bring up. The rest of the day was spent watching One Tree Hill so well, that was it.
