Yesterday I physically went to classes at my uni for the first time since I enrolled last year!
After a year of online classes I finally went to the place I've been hearing a lot about, wondering what it's going to be like. I was mostly anxious about two things - the people and their stares (I'm in a wheelchair at the moment) and whether I was going to get everywhere in time without getting lost or having any, and I mean ANY types of mishaps on the way. Being rather neurotic I could easily think about a million things that could go wrong. And some did? Like the thing with me not having the time to go the the bathroom until my classes ended. But I took care of that, so it's fine. And my last lecture - it turned out that the auditorium where it's held had these 3 steps leading up to the main part of the room. Which is not ideal when you're in a wheelchair? It kinda put me on the spot which I do not like!!! but oh well.
The people in my year are sooo nice tho!!! I'm older than them since I think all of them or most of them graduated highschool just last year? And I... did that 8 years ago 🤣🤣🤣 they were absolutely lovely tho and I'm so happy that I found at least a couple people who weren't afraid of talking to me given my wheelchair. Can you believe people still get uneasy around people in wheelchairs??? Bestie!!! No!!! I'm just a person!!! Talk to me!!!
And it was sooo cute, when I first arrived in the morning before our first class, they were like "oh, are you ___?" And when I was like "yeah!!!" They all went to shaking my hand and introducing themselves one by one, which was sooooo cute babes 🥺🥺🥺🥺
After a couple hours nonstop in a wheelchair my back hurt, but I must say, I really had a wonderful day yesterday!!!
