They were all gathered around, listening to their professor babble about hard work.
It was 7:25, the last class of the day.
Myla was sketching dress ideas for the big DS project.
They all had to make one beautiful piece of clothing, and then present it to the class, explaining what fabric they used, and their inspiration.

They bell rang, and everyone gathered their belongings, and walked out fo the class. Myla walked down the outside school stairs, with her friends, as they were going out for dinner.
"Ah its so pretty today" Elena commented, she had her arms stretched out into the air, and her eyes were closed, taking in the beautiful weather, as it was slowly becoming spring time.

Myla was excited for spring break, she was gonna go visit her Aunt in Niagara falls Ontario. Her and her aunt were very close, as her aunt was laid back, and a bit of a hippie.
They walk into the sushi restaurant, all sitting down. "What are you gonna have myla" Her friend Jacob asked. "Oh i think I'm just gonna have the udon with spring rolls, my favorite" they all nod, placing their orders in.

Myla kept thinking back to that night, when he asked her if she forgave him, she ran off into her apartment.
What was she supposed to say? That she missed him? He humiliated her, and cheated on her, she couldn't forgive him. Her thoughts were broken by someone calling her name. "Myla, hello" her friend Alex, was waving his hands infront of her face.
"Sorry, just thinking about the project" they all nod with understanding.
"Oh yeah, I still don't know what I'm going to do for it" her friend Madeline said.

They continue eating, and sharing stories, until it was 9:12, and they all left. They all say goodbye, and walk off to their homes. Instead of going home, myla walks off to the supermarket. When she walked in, she went to the juice aisle. She picks up a pack of fruit punch, and goes to the register to pay. It came to an even 5 dollars. She pays, and leaves. She opens one of the juice boxes, and drinks it on her way home.

She walks into her apartment, and she sets down her bag and puts the juice in the fridge, and walks into her room, and takes of her clothes to take a shower. She lathers the strawberry conditioner into her hair, and washes it off. The hot water fogs the clear glass door, and she makes a smily face on it. She steps of the shower, drying her self, and blow drying her hair. She does her skincare, and brushes her teeth. She turns the light off, and walks into her room.
She unmakes the sheets, and climbs in, turning on her TV, and putting on "Friends". She feels her eyes get heavy, and she slips into sleep.

It was around 6:30, when her alarm went off, waking her up instantly, as she was a light sleeper. She pulls the white sheets of her body, and walks into the washroom, and did her daily routine. She heads to the kitchen, and grabs a small protein bar, as she's not big on breakfast. She goes back to her room, and picks out a green sweater, and mom jeans, with dark green converse. She locks up her apartment, and walks down the pavement, to her school.

Walking into the workshop, she sits down, and starts working on her piece. The presentation was 3 months away, but she wanted to have enough time. The workshop started filling up with students, all working and talking. She grabs a mannequin, and starts pinning the fabric on. The model she was making, was a beautiful red gown, that had beautiful long sleeves. She was afraid she was gonna mess up, since this is 70 percent of their grade.

"Hey myla" She turns around at the sound of her best friend; keres.
"Hey, where were you yesterday?"
"I was helping amara with her presentation in theater"
Myla nods, and goes back to work.
"So what did you decide on?"
Myla hands keres the sketch of the dress. "Aw i loved the blue one more"
"I know, but it was just too much for me" keres goes to their desk and starts working on sketches.
