Only In Your Dreams - Flowers from 1970 (concept idea)

Safe.

I was Soon greeted by a boy named Coy, "hello! how may I help you?" he asked. "hello, I'd like--" my eyes skimmed the menu briefly again as I nearly forgot to look at it with all the random thoughts that pondered my mind. "Pancakes with some syrup if thats alright" I added. "no problem! anything else to drink?" he asked. "waters fine thank you." I said. As he left I saw someone who looked strangly familiar.. But I couldn't place my tounge on who it could be, I eyed them for a while until Coy returned with my pancakes. I ate them up pretty fast, I was starving.

after the restaurant I headed back to campus. It was now 10 am, as I came back. I heard there was a football (soccer) game tonight and thought about asking Isabelle later to come with me, I wanted to live the full college experience while I'm here instead of just wasting away time. getting involved with things like I never did in high school.

I was headed toward the library to get some extra studying in, as I entered I didn't really know where to sit I barley knew any of these people and I felt like i was a kid in freshman year of high school all over again. I still felt like a kid, and I'm not sure why. even though I know I've grown so much at 22 since I was 14 of course some things never change and I got that feeling of deja vu.

I decided to sit at this table that had a couple other people at it but I didn't seem like I was interuptting a friend groups conversation or anything, it still felt awkward but come on what else are you going to do when there are no empty tables? I was mainly studying for a huge exam we had coming up in my history class, which fun fact I'm a history major! Kind of ironic isn't it? I bet you aren't very surprised are you.

it was specifically on the political state of the laissez faire government and the exploitation in the work force during the industrial revolution which took place in the late 1800s, and early 1900s.

I found that topic specifically very interesting. studying for it wasn't so hard because even though it was a rough time it was one of my favorites, the progressive era in which the muckrackers helped shape the horrible life they were living into the economic boom of the 1920s. I don't know why but it always facinated me; the girl across from me at the table spoke, "hi!" she greeted me. "hello" I waved looking up from my textbook, i smiled. "hey!" said the boy beside me. "hey" i laughed. it was weird how so many people were so friendly here, "I hope you don't mind me asking but are you not from here? I noticed you have an American accent." I asked the boy next to me. "Nope! I'm from Ohio, but I just moved here this semester." he replied. "I'm assuming your a freshman too?" i asked. "mhm" he responded. "same, I'm from Florida" i added. "I'm Noah, what's your name?" he asked me. "I'm Dre-- Clay." I mumbled. I was always so used to being called dream by sap and George, i was a bit hesitant about telling him my nickname dream.. I mean what if he found me weird? "Pardon?" he said. "Clay." I repeated. "Nice to meet you Clay. This is my friend Tina, She's from America too." Noah introduced the girl across from me, Tina. "Wow I didn't realize so many people here were from America." I said. "I'm actually from Korea but I moved to America as a kid. I've been feeling kind of homesick lately but it really is lovely here in London you know?" Tina said. "yeah so far its been really great here, I love it." I replied. "what do you guys major in?" I asked. Noah smirked, "I major in sports, specfically football, aka soccer. I minor in track." Noah said. "i major in biology, minor in art" Tina added. "That's great, are you going to be in the football game tonight?" I asked Noah. "of course! are you coming?" he asked. "I was considering it." I said. "if you want you can come with us, Noah is going to be in it but me and my friend Isabelle are going" Tina added. "Isabelle.." I mumbled just under my breath. "do you know her?"  Tina asked. "yeah" I laughed. "were friends." I added. "that's great! it starts at 2 pm. you want to go right?" Tina asked. "for sure" I said. "well I geuss we'll see you there" she said with a smile. "of course." I said with a reassuring nod. "oh I forgot to ask you what's your major?" Tina said "I'm majoring in history" I replied. "That's so cool! i love history" she said. Noah tapped on her shoulder and whispered in her ear, "we better get going Noah has to go to practice and i promised i would help one of my friends out in her dorm" Tina added. "alright. ill see you later" i said.
