My 1st day at UniRazak

When I arrived at UniRazak city campus it is very impressive and luxuries building. I was wondering why I didn't see any UniRazak's students. I guessed that may be they are on semester break. A lot of judgment I made in my mind as I walking ahead to UniRazak, would I get any friends and would the facilitators would like me or aversion.

I saw many people standing in front of UniRazak's building and I kept smiling to them. When I saw three girls standing and chattering together, I take initiative to approach them. Until now, Azren, Rozana and Sahara are my close friend. We know each other and after a few days, Rai joined our group and us getting close every day.
