(Leave comments and tell me what you think and how I can improve the story! I plan on writing all week and then posting on Fridays or Saturdays. Let me know if that is a good idea! :)

As I sit on my bed and think about what has happened, My roommate comes up to me and asks if there is anything that I wanted to do with her. I told her I was really tired and I needed to get some school supplies for and things like that.

After what felt like forever, she finally leaves me alone and I pull my planner out. I start to organize my classes and make sure everything is where it is supposed to be. I ran over my classes to make sure they were right, and then I left.

I went to the nearest Staples and got a ton of notebooks and things for school. I really need to look for a job to get money because right now, I barely have any. I am going off of my graduation money.

When I got back to the dorm, my roommate is sitting on the bed, texting I assume. I am not really a technology person, and I don't like to use my phone a lot.

"Hey girl! What's up. I want to get to know you." She moves on her bed to make a spot on her bed for me. I nod and sit next to her.

"What's your name?" I ask her.

"Kim. You? Oh yea, I already asked you that!" She seems like a really nice person.

"So what are you into, besides boys?" She asks me.

"Um I really like to go shopping, and I like to do girl things." I say back not realizing how stupid I sound right now.

"Thats so cool! I love to do those things too!" Now its my turn to ask a question.

"So do you have a boyfriend?" I really don't know why I just asked that, but it happened.

"Yea he should be here any minute actually, how funny!" Her saying that makes me want John to be here. A knock at the door wakes me from my thoughts. It's probably her boyfriend. When she opens the door, I see a man with dark hair, and blue eyes. Gosh, he is handsome. I wish he was my boyfriend.

Its getting pretty late now, and I should get some sleep before the next day. I am really excited. My first day of college! I change into my pajamas and decide to watch an episode on Netflix before I go to bed. I check my phone to see if anyone called me and then I am asleep.

The next day came really fast. It is 6 am and my roommate is already up. I am still really tired and I want to be anywhere but here.

"Hey sleepyhead!" Kim says.

"Hey, what time did you wake up?" I ask.

"5:30 so I could get a jump on the day." Wow, I could never do that.

By the time I get to the showers, it is almost 8, so I have to hurry up. The hot water is soothing my muscles, making me feel nice and relaxed. After I get put of the shower, I decide on what to wear. Today, it only took me 30 minutes to decide, and I am out the door. I stop by a coffee shop so I can get a little boost of energy before I arrive at the campus. Dang, it is packed. I look all around, and see only people. There are so many people who go to this school. More than I thought. After getting lost a couple of times, I arrive to my class, and I am the second one there. The other person there is a boy with dark hair. He is really cute. Anyway, I sit in the row ahead of him. I like to sit in the front because I miss anything important. As time goes on, more students trickle in and Kim is in this class! She comes up to me and sits next to me.

"Hey girly, whats going on? Are you excited for this class?" She asks. Why does she call me weird names like that and ask so many questions?

"Yes I love math so much, I would marry it." I say as sarcastically as possible.

"Haha, you are so funny!" She punches me in the arm. Ouch.

"Okay class, welcome. I am your professor. We are going to be learning about math." That comment earned a lot of groans from everyone in the classroom.

"Take out your notebooks and lets take notes on what I expect from you." Again, more groans.

"Okay please stop groaning. I know the first day sucks, but it will get better, I promise." He says. The rest of class goes by so slowly. I have taken close to 4 pages of notes. Welcome to college, I guess.

My next class is Swimming. I love to swim. I don' t find myself becoming a national swimmer, but I like to do it in my free time. I have to walk almost a mile to get to the building, and when I get there, I am lost. There are so many rooms to go into, so I pick one and hope it is the right one.

Turns out it was, I get in there and the professor is sitting by the pool, waiting for students. He notices me and doesn't say anything. That is weird. I check to make sure I have my swim suit and towel. I try to kill time and check my phone.

I have a message from my dad, I really wish he wasn't so busy with work.

*Hey honey! How's college so far? Do you like your roommate? Call me when you get out so we can talk about your first day!*

I decide not to respond, and put my phone in my swim bag because more kids are coming in. I will have to call him later though. When the starts, we don't actually get in the water, we just go over rules, how fun.

After class, I change into regular clothes, and try to brush my hair again. It is really crowded in the locker room, again more people than I thought.

When I walk out, I see the boy from math sitting on a bench. When I come out, he sees me and walks towards me.

"Hey there good looking, want to grab something to eat?" He asks.

"Um, I can't, I have to go to my next class." Is all I can manage to get out.

" Right now is the hour break, so come with me." He tells me.

"I have a boyfriend,"

"He won't know about this, trust me."

"No really please leave me alone." As if on cue, Kim walks towards me. Thank god.

"Hey do you want to go get lunch?" She asks.

"Yea sure, where do you want to go?" I as her. I really need to start making new friends. I know its only the first day, but still.

I pull out my phone and tap on the Yelp app. Since we are both new to he area, we don't know what to eat. I see a lot of options, so I just hand her my phone to look.

"Yes, lets to go Panera!" She decides.
