The heat was already making its appearance, and it was only 7:50 am. ‘Ugh, there goes my hair with the humidity. I bet my ID badge photo is going to look great for the next 4 years. Maybe, I can just wait until winter and claim I lost it and have them retake my photo.’ Tina’s mind was racing with nervous thoughts. ‘Shit, I’ve only got 10 minutes because parking is so screwy here. Definitely one thing I’ll miss about North Carolina. You don’t need to find city parking to go to a Target to buy shampoo. You just park in the parking lot that’s 30 paces to the front door, rather than 30 city blocks. Jesus, Tina, just concentrate on walking.’ Her inner dialogue continues to race as she approaches the front steps and watches the other students filing in. She enters through the double doors and follows the signs in the lobby. The long tables with binders are lining one wall. They appear to be in alphabetical order so she just heads toward the middle assuming hers will be somewhere in the vicinity.
“Finding your binder and name tag ok?” A friendly male voice rattled Tina from her one sided inner conversation.
She scans the table a little farther toward the end, spots her name, and then nervously laughs. “Um, yeah. Glad I’m better at science than spelling. Haha. I swear they really did let me in to this school.” She nervously giggles again.
This time the smiling guy laughs along with her, “It’s ok. We’ve been off all summer, it’s before 8am and I’m guessing you haven’t had any coffee yet. I can’t help with the first two, but there is coffee inside the classroom. I’m Ryan, one of the second years.”
“I’m Tina, obviously one of the newbies. Nice to meet you. Do we have to sign in or anything?” she asks as she pins the name tag on her shirt.
“Nope, just grab your stuff then follow the corridor to the doors on the right and find your seat. Unfortunately, they’re alphabetical again, so you may wanna grab some coffee before you make a second attempt. Just playing!” he joked as he motioned down the hallway toward the classroom.

alone in a big world, well sort of, but college can be that way… I wonder if Alice and Bette are already friends…
