Students back earlier

One noticeable change from last week
is
the number of young people in the city

University starts tomorrow,
and students are coming back to the city

Walking on the street,
the atmosphere feels a bit different

"Fresh"
"Future"
"Energetic" — all these notions related to young people seem imbued in the air, at least from my eyes

Something peculiar this year is
they have come back earlier

1 years ago & 2 years ago, I was here
I didn’t feel this change at the end of September

I felt it only when October started, when the new semester began

It’s easier to point out university students

Their fashion is no longer baggy trousers & baggy hoodies & childish backpacks & sneakers, like teenagers

Yet, their fashion is not as practical, as conventional, as dull as office workers’. Not yet

Uni students don’t have much money to buy clothes, but they have enough freedom & curiosity for experiments,
and enough motivation to show their existence to the opposite sex & to the world
