WHAT WOULDN'T I GIVE FOR LOVE

"Are you ready Tracey?" Grandma asked I smiled and said "yes" but deep down I knew I wasn't. I was going to a boarding school across town, it wasn't far from home but still I feared the thought of a new environment. After an hour we finally reached campus, I was so nervous. I looked around and the school looked so beautiful, it was covered with beautiful flowers and nice infrastructure. The students were smartly dressed and everything looked so organized. Grandma held my hand as walked inside the administration office, she helped with the documentation and registration. After we were done with everything I was assigned to a class and hostel. It was time for my grandma to leave even though I knew she was going to leave eventually I couldn't help but drop a few tears. The principal called one of the pupils to help me carry my luggage and give me a tour of the school. Since it was a Friday I was told to settle in and report to class on Monday, I was down with the idea because I would have enough time to get to know some people and to get familiar with the environment. Next morning the seniors woke all the tenth graders up for what they called orientation. When I woke up I thought it was something official but instead they made us stand naked at the centre of the hostels and sing the national anthem while pouring cold water on us. What started off as torture ended up to be fun. During the weekend I met other tenth graders and I made a few friends. Jude, Lily, Christie and Purity were in the same hostel as me and I spent the most of time with them. All of them were already familiar with school because the were returning students. I was slowly starting to like the place and I was missing home lesser than I expected. Monday morning, we all got ready and headed for class. Luckily Christie and Lily were assigned to the same class as me. we were all majoring in business studies. growing up I've always had a passion for business administration. When we went to class the first thing the class teacher said was selection of class representatives. Purity thought if I was to become class rep it would help with my social anxiety so she nominated name and surprisingly everyone else was all in with me as their female class rep. That's how I met Joseph, Joseph was a very handsome, smart and fashionable boy or as some would say the hottest boy in teeth great. He was elected as male class rep.
