Alex Smith is starting his first day at a new college. He is shy and depressed due to his parents recently splitting up. At the reception desk, Alex collects his planner and timetable from the receptionist. His first class is maths in the D block. The receptionist directs Alex to continue down the corridor and out the left door, where the D block building will be in front of him. Alex smiles and hurries off to class, not wanting to be late on his first day.
