12、新的開(kāi)始全新的開(kāi)始我第一次開(kāi)始思考我的大學(xué)要做些什么，不管怎樣我的父母把我送到大學(xué)校園便開(kāi)車(chē)離開(kāi)了，我一個(gè)人孤零零地站在停車(chē)場(chǎng)，此時(shí)此刻我只想平安地找到去我宿舍的道路。一個(gè)無(wú)法改變的事實(shí)是無(wú)論我認(rèn)為自己多么成熟，我都覺(jué)得還是有點(diǎn)兒大一新生的稚氣。此外我還有一個(gè)煩惱就是總覺(jué)得大學(xué)里的每一個(gè)人好像都在注意我。我只想張開(kāi)耳朵閉起嘴巴希望這樣就不會(huì)有人注意到我是一個(gè)大一新生?；谶@種想法，我抬起頭，聳聳肩，于是一邊看著手里的校園地圖，一邊朝著宿

13、舍走去。當(dāng)我第一眼看到一個(gè)真正的大學(xué)足球運(yùn)動(dòng)員時(shí)我情不自禁地盯著他看。那是是一個(gè)多么自信，多么淡定，肌肉多么有型的人啊。此時(shí)我只希望能引起他注意的是我的外貌而不是我顫抖的膝蓋。我花了一下午的時(shí)間來(lái)找每一間教室的位置，這樣以后上課時(shí)就可以準(zhǔn)時(shí)趕到，而不用問(wèn)我們教室在哪兒這樣愚蠢的問(wèn)題。第二天的早上我去上第一節(jié)課。然而我剛進(jìn)教室，又遇到了另一件麻煩事。我該坐哪兒呢新生手冊(cè)上說(shuō)我們最好盡量往前坐。這樣就會(huì)給教授留下聰明好學(xué)又精力旺盛的印象。仔

14、細(xì)考慮之后，我選擇了第一排靠邊的一個(gè)位置。雖然我坐在前排，但是沒(méi)有在教授的視線(xiàn)范圍之內(nèi)。我打開(kāi)了我的美國(guó)文學(xué)選集然后在排版整齊的書(shū)上隨便地寫(xiě)上日期。“歡迎來(lái)到101教室的生物課堂，”教授開(kāi)始了他的開(kāi)場(chǎng)白。然而我的脖子后面卻冷汗直冒，我摸到了我的時(shí)間表，然后校對(duì)了一下門(mén)牌號(hào)。我才發(fā)現(xiàn)我進(jìn)對(duì)了教室卻跑錯(cuò)了教學(xué)樓?，F(xiàn)在怎么辦呢上課期間起身離開(kāi)這樣教授難道不會(huì)生氣嗎我知道如果這樣每個(gè)人都會(huì)盯著我看。別胡思亂想了。我坐在椅子上裝成生物專(zhuān)業(yè)的學(xué)生的
