Akil diligently paced himself around the gym, admiring the school and looking over to see the students. A few of them were looking at him as well and he just smiled back to them. He was growing a bit nervous as he thought about what the future might hold. What kind of friends would he be making? What his roommates were like? And what sort of wondrous, new, and exciting things he would learn and experience at his stay here? As he contemplated these thoughts he lost track of how many laps he did. He was certain he did at least one. So he decided to do four more just to be on the safe side, but this time keep track.
