1L Student
Saruh
She remembered her first year at DuBois like it was yesterday. As she sat there and let it process for a second, it was kind of almost like it was yesterday. She entered DuBois two years ago at the age of 19 ahead of most students as she had an associate degree. She was already a practicing paralegal before most students her age even took the SAT. After that, she already had most of her general credits she needed and loaded up on her psychology requirements.
In two years, she was done and entering Law school. So despite all of the work and accomplishments she had put in that took most people four years, it wasn’t really that long of a time.
She watched as the Freshmen began to pour into the basketball Arena in their Olive Branch t-shirts. She chuckled as she noticed that just like her first year, the girls had jazzed up their t-shirts to make them “cute”. The DJ was spinning music as if it was a club and not a giant mixer for the Freshmen. That was an HBCU for you though.
Carnival games spread across the (covered) arena floor. There was the tank dunk game, dart throwing game, and more all with winnable prizes. The prizes were just mainly school paraphernalia, stuffed animals, or just extra tickets to get food. Each student was given two food tickets, presumably one for one food item and one for a drink. So there was plenty of incentive for winning games, especially for a hungry college student.
The stage was built on the eastern side of the gym, towards the area where the tunnels are. Soon, local acts would start hitting the stage and then the headliner SahBabii.
She felt proud of herself as she held her clipboard and readjusted her suspenders. She looked around for Onyx, who was helping her with everything that was going on with Olive Branch. She just mainly was there so Saruh wouldn’t get bored, but officially she had her there checking in on the food stations making sure there were enough food to match the tickets as the vendors had promised.
There was a minute where she looked to her phone to check if her boyfriend had messaged her, and shrugged her shoulders when she noticed he hadn’t. He was probably busy and that was fine, he had the right to be.
She waved to a couple of students who had come in who had spoke to her and laughed. She wasn’t sure which students were genuinely being nice to her and which were being nice because of her multiple positions. She was not only the daughter of a elite lawyers, an excellent law student, and the Dean of Pledges. Getting in good with her was a shoe into multiple aspects of life.
When she spotted Onyx she moved towards her to see how everything was going. Onyx was one of her favorite people on campus. She met through her little brother back in Texas and she’s been something like a little sister to her since, though there wasn’t a huge gap in their ages.
"Hey Ony! How is it looking?"
