Later on, I finally cleared out all those requirements and had to start with my lessons.
It was a hard beginning, though, and I had to gather all the nerves to surpass. I backed out the first day and decided to go home otherwise! (Sounds so unserious of me, right?)
The next day I got the courage and prepared to study and approach my first lesson eventually (sighs). In a new people setting, I had no clue of what room I was to study from (though I recognized the block for law students). On glancing at a fellow Year 1, I coincidentally convened in the admission office. I had to huddle myself up and inquire where room 17 was (My stream). On my way there, gathering confidence climbing the staircase with a million thoughts running in my mind, I eventually surpassed the room…..
I found a lecturer in their and course I was late (something I entirely ceased to refine my whole life, time management), but in my psyche, I was like “I’m not going back, I’m going to study”, quietly reassuring myself towards the entrance, got my mask on to kind of disguise.
I strolled in straight, not looking in anyone’s face, and of course, they were staring at me, but I only beseeched to locate a seat real quick, and yeah, luckily found one! (one that’s still my permanent position) .I had to pick up a book to take notes in the middle of nowhere, not knowing what course unit I was even studying. Making things worse, on searching my bag I had only hauled a pencil instead of a pen!!!!!
And the book I had clogged was one of my brothers in primary school. At this juncture, I was marveling at what sort of Lawyer I could make. Weird! Right, but that’s my way of doing things, and I somehow find myself in such circumstances (no judgments). I also strived to look for a blank page that had no writings, and this also was a ticket of war. The Day was Weird, but I kept steady though everything wasn’t exact.
Something different with University, the hospitality for fresh fellas isn't warming, and I had to strive hard to blend like I was used to. To my rescue came my neighbor to the left, a focused wise, friendly Guy called Vincent. He noticed I was a “new fresher” he had to ratify me through the notes of that exact lecture I found commencing, noticing I was stunned and had no clue on to assure me of how he was ready to pass me through any previous lecture notes I missed t this moment I knew God had sent a guardian angel to my rescue.
Lectures got done, I stayed behind to talk over with Vincent. Everything just got easier with his explanation made this a habit every evening, and it proved beneficial.
Lastly, I recognized this was a new chapter I had to prepare for and adjust to accordingly. Got myself ready with all the required resources, and yes I finally settled.
