after a full week (and more) of orientation week and a weekend of high fevers (38ish to 39.1), phlegm-ignited coughs and running dripping sniffles, i managed to get myself to my first lecture today.
it was a two-hour lecture (no doubt i was late, while assessing how well i am to be at school), that had a hall packed to the brim with other undergrads. by the time it ended, my hair hadn't even dried from the morning wash that i rushed out with.
sure, i met some friends from camp, dave (whom i plonked myself next to; thanks!) and ivy (who has given me quite a scare on how much i do not know) - which made the day a little less boring.
but it really felt odd, and a little strange.
i'm not really ready for school. (okay, for any nation-serving males reading this, i get you're gonna lash me for saying this)
i'm not on the ball, i'm not in touch, i havent gotten my groove. things are moving, people are talking and time is ticking but yet i'm still at my moment.
maybe it's cos it's just a two-hour lecture, and really, today came and went like any normal day. without much of an impact.
i need to get out of it soon. in fact, i need to get moving.
