After leaving the building, I walked to my car and drove back to my dorm. Once in my room, I changed into running clothes and headed out for a jog.
As I was coming back from the run, I noticed people playing on the basketball court again. Among them, I saw that girl—she was Asian, the second Asian girl I had seen at the university. She was medium in height, had untidily cut short black hair that barely reached her ears, and she wore baggy sports clothes
One could almost mistake her for a boy.
It occurred to me that in my previous life, I completely ignored everyone around me.
I had been too focused on trying to learn as much as I could during this time. In class and after class.
I would devour as much knowledge as humanly possible.
...
The next day, I had the first lecture in International Trade and Finance with Professor Sophia Fletcher.
Matt was actually answering some tough questions during the lecture.
