As the gentle light of sunrise enters my room thorough the curtains, I wake up from my sleep, reluctantly letting go of the corforting embrace of my bed while yawning and stretching I greet the new day, feeling excited as I embrace what the day has in store for me.
After a quick cold shower to completely wake me up and bring me to my senses. I make my way to the kitchen to myself some cereal and tea. A student I hardly get time to make English breakfast therefore my breakfast is simple and fair, with a mark of steaming tea in my hand I sit down to review my schedule for the day. Mentally preparing myself for my classes and task that lies ahead.
On my way to campus, the bus is filled with the chatter of fellow students. Arriving on campus I see a lot of different faces everyday. I find it very interesting that I never see the same face twice unless we share a module. Being in an academic place where there is so much diversity will always be my favorite part of being a university student.
Classes on fold like chapters in a book as I learn different things everyday, Each class offering new understanding and perspective of the world around me. From studying about different cultures, how the human mind works, each lesson makes me even more eager to learn more about the world we live in.
During lunch time, I always chill outside with my newly found friends as we enjoy the view of nature and also get a to unwind and connect as friends. Afternoons are usually filled with hectic activities as I always go to the library to catch up on everything I learnt in class. As I try my best to excel in very one of my modules.
As the sun goes down, alerting me that it is the end of another day, I gather my belongings and leave campus to go to my now second home which is my res, for me evenings are a time of relaxation and cooking, I always cherish this moments because I get to unwind and call my family because they help me forget about the pressure and stress that comes with being a student.
As bed time approaches, I reflect on the day's events filled with opportunities and growth, before I sleep I pray and thank God for the experiences that shaped me into the person I am today. As I get inside my covers and close my eyes drifting into a peaceful sleep.
