Chapter 300

Despite my nerves, I knew this was an opportunity to showcase myself, and I didn't want to let it slip away. Turning around, I wrote my name on the blackboard. I shared a bit about my hobbies and the areas I was most passionate about, hoping this would help break the ice and make me more approachable. The classroom erupted in applause, and I felt some tension in my shoulders eased. Gabrielle and William quickly introduced themselves as well, and the professor then pointed out our seats. "Your language skills are impressive, but since you're here as short-term exchange students, I'd like to place you in different groups. That way, you can engage in team activities and gain more collaborative experience," the professor said thoughtfully as she divided us. I found myself seated among curious and friendly faces, their warm smiles easing the nervousness that had been building inside me. Trying to blend into the new environment, I struck up a conversation with the students around me.
