It is the first semester of university and I'm going to moved into Furnald Hall. The night before the previous day, I have packed my suitcase with all I need and also not to forget, my laptop in case there is a need for it.

Dad waited for me outside the house and before leaving, Mom kissed my forehead and said, "Do enjoy your university life, remember to call us if you need anything or just a quick update." "I will and I promised to enjoy myself, goodbye Mom", I said excitedly but inside my heart was filled with sadness as I was going to leave home.

Once Dad drove and reached Columbia University, I kissed him and walked towards the campus. The university was huge that and I could see Morningside Heights which I admired so much. I immediately went to Furnald Hall and while on my way, I saw someone who has caught my eyes. It was Percy, Percy Jackson and he was walking with a friend to Carman Hall. I wasn't expecting to see him in Columbia University and probably this might be a chance for me to talked to him.

I checked into my room, 526 and unpacked my stuff. It was only the first day and I liked this place which made my option on my form worth it. Initially, Dad wanted Carman Hall since it was the most common option for first year students but looking through every options, we decided that Furnald Hall was better. After unpacking my stuff, I went out of the hall and went to Carman Hall to looked for Percy. One of his friends told me that he was in room 805 and I thanked him before rushing up. Finally, I'm right outside Percy's room. I calmed myself down and knocked the door.

"Why the hell will someone look for me on the first day!", Percy shouted while opening the door. "Annabeth? Why come on in and it's good to see you", he said. I entered the room and to my surprise, it was filled with posters, mostly on warriors and dragons. While Percy and I sat the bed, we had a conversation.

"How did you find me, Annabeth?"

"I asked your friends and plus, I saw you walking towards Carman Hall, seaweed brain (it has been a long time since I used this word)."

"Oh really? Haha, I didn't know that and sorry for being rude just now", Percy said embarrassly.

"It's okay, Per, I know you didn't mean it."

"That's great! You are of course taking Architecture right?"

"That's right! Yours?"

"I'm taking Visual Arts."

"Seriously? Since when did you have interest in that?"

"After the last time we both met."

When the conservation ended, Percy said that he had to go off soon for classes and that was where I started to see a new side of him. He wasn't the boy that I last met years ago.

After the class was ended, I had my lunch at Ferris Booth and went straight back to my room. My first day was good after all and at the lounge, I made a new friend, Dawn. Dawn was a friendly active girl who has auburn hair and a small star tattoo at the left side which was a few inches below her armpit. Someday, I might want to get a tattoo but let me put that aside since I do not have a reason to do so.

Back in the room, I procrastinated about Percy, class and Dawn that I almost forgot to call Mom and reported her on life in Columbia University. Right after calling, I took a shower, did my report and off to dreamland. This was the most tiring day I ever had.
