My first 3 days of school

Have you ever been somewhere and thought to yourself, I can't believe I'm here. I can't believe this is happening to me. Am I dreaming?

That's how I felt for the entire first day of class. Every time a new educator would come into the room they would look around and ask, is everyone excited to be here? And every single time I would have to control myself from jumping up, waving my arms in the air and screaming, YES! YES I AM!!! Instead I would meekly answer back, yes with the rest of the room. I figured if I planned on even making one friend then I should keep my ass in my seat.

The first 3 days were orientation where they went over the rules. And there were a lot of damn rules. Although it was nothing I can't adhere to and I kind of prefer rules, at least you know where they stand. There is a great mix of people in my class. I was assuming there would be a lot of people fresh out of high school but we had people of all age ranges with everyone having a common reason for being there.

Everyone said they were going to school/back to school to pursue their dreams. That going to cosmetology school was something they have always wanted to do. So I felt like I was in the right place. And I was just beyond excited to finally be there.
