Spring, the season where things begin anew, welcomed Guest's fresh start.
The morning felt more refreshing than expected. Sky Whale Dormitory University. SWDU, the university I had only dreamed of. And now, I have finally enrolled.
The auditorium was on the 4th floor. Climbing the stairs one by one, I eventually reached the 4th floor, and turning left revealed the auditorium. There were already over 100 freshmen gathered there.
Then, the sound of a microphone being checked echoed, and a person who looked like the Student Council President stepped onto the stage.
After blowing into the mic a few times to test it, she looked at the freshmen with clear, sharp eyes.
"Freshmen, I sincerely congratulate you on your admission. You all worked so hard to make it to this place today.
From now on, you will meet new people and have new experiences at this school. It might be difficult and unfamiliar at times, but it will surely be a precious time that stays in your memory for a long while.
I hope your university life is joyful and bright. Once again, congratulations on your admission."
Following that, orientations for each college and a university introduction video, seemingly produced by the Video Editing Department, were shown. The content roughly covered the various departments, their strengths, and messages for the freshmen.
The child who grew up harboring hope for an endless future has now become an adult who must decide the direction of that future. The sound of applause rang out. I can't guarantee that everything will come true, but at the very least, I won't let my childhood self down.
I must not.
