In fact, the joys and freedom that were a dream in School became a reality in college. This pleasant chance had a pleasant effect on me. have never been able to forget my first day at college. My emotions were like A New Place and a New Life with a New Lifestyle

I still remember the day when after the announcement of our Matriculation result, I was planning to get admission to a college. Many excited and heated discussions took place on the choice of subjects and college. My first choice was Govt. College. It was the best College of not only our city but also the province and the Country. It was the most historical college. So, my family decided for it. applied for admission to Govt. College.

After a few days, the list of successful candidates was posted on notice board of College and I was among those candidates who were granted admission. I was allotted Roll number and I was proud of being the student of Govt. College.

My first day at college was a blend of joy, excitement, fear and surprise. got up early in the morning. offered my Fajr prayer and recited the verses of the Holy Quran. I took breakfast, wore the college uniform and got ready to go to the college, my father dropped me at the College gate. When entered the college gate on my first day at college. I had mixed feelings of fear and joy. I could not believe that it was my first day at college. I could not believe that the hard school life was over. It was like a dream.

I will always be thankful to Allah Almighty that I got admission to a grand college like Govt. College. It was indeed a completely new world for me. The college had a wonderful building, lovely playgrounds and devoted Professors. The grand traditions, good mannerism, and liberal atmosphere made a great difference to my life. My first-day entry in college always fascinates me. My first day was an unforgettable experience of my educational life.

The moment stepped into the College an exciting environment attracted me. there were great hustle and bustle in the college. I found myself among smart and active boys. They were the Senior students who had arrived early to make first years tools of the new students. Most of us got nervous. They greeted the newcomers with funny remarks. It was a special way of welcoming the new students to the college. The same had happened to them on their first day at College. The first-day fooling was done in a mannered way. The new students were asked to sing songs, dance in front of the seniors, share jokes, told some senior students posed to be teachers, sent to washroom instead of classrooms and asked to perform funny things. All in all it was an enjoyable action-packed day.

One of the most impressive traditions of the College was to arrange a welcome party for the new students. There was grand Welcome party. We had been invited by our Worthy Principal. It was very emotional gathering. Our Professor of English who is a poet read a beautiful poem. Or Principal also addressed us. He gave very useful guidance for the successful practical life. In the end, we were served refreshment and had an official photograph with the Worthy Principal and Our Professors.

We attended some classes on the first day. In most of the classes, the teacher-student introduction activity took place. We were guided by books and other matters. We realized that the college had very learned, experienced and devoted Professors. It proved true during my stay in college. Gradually, nervousness and shyness decreased. I will never forget the experience of my first meeting with new friends and teachers of the college. It was indeed an opening to a new life of freedom and pleasure.

At the end of the first day, I returned home. When I was returning home, all the memories of my first day at College came to my mind. It was like a film. It had fun and fear. I remembered all the happenings and reached home with a smile. I had entered the college to gain knowledge and wisdom and to become a good citizen. Thanks, Almighty Allah I got what I wished. I wrote my memories in a special notebook.

In the end, I can say that college life is a beautiful blend of joys and memories. Right from my first day, every day spent in College was full of colorful events. Surely, College life is an ideal part of student life.

My impressions of the first day at college are still fresh in my memory. It seems impossible to erase those Sweet memories.
