Sage's POV**

Everything's going smoothly when it comes to getting this apartment and now I hope everything else goes as planned today. I get dressed In sweat pants and a t-shirt to go to school . The last week of school is all the seniors taking finals so that we can graduate. I drive off in my cute little SUV and make my way to school. I walk into the office and talk to my principal about sending my transcript to Nashville. He gives me the all clear and writes me a pass to class. The only final I have to take is anatomy and then I don't have school anymore. After all of that, I decide to go to the mall.

It's only 10:00 in the morning so not many people are here. The first place I go is Café Seattle and I order an oreo frappe with tapioca bubbles. This place charges $4.25 for a medium sized drink, yet I keep coming here. The cashier hands me my drink with a wide green straw. The drink is quite expensive but the taste is so worth it.

Sipping my drink I go my favorite store in the entire world, FOREVER 21! They have all the cute stuff in here and since my style is totally hipster, it's easy to find stuff. I pick up a few sweaters, scarves, dresses, leggings, shirts and skirts. I then pick out a cute green two piece bathing suit with palm trees on it. After paying my bill and using almost all of the coupons they have, I make my way to Hollister.

I buy 8 pairs of jeans and buy another two piece bathing suit that is yellow. This store is crazy expensive too, but they have the best jeans and I have the money, so I guess I shouldn't complain; but if you ask me, I like free stuff.

I make another stop to Journey's to buy two more pairs of Converse and a pair of Sperry's. Since I already have the white converse so I decided to get a black pair and a pair of Sanuks. I stroll into Charlotte Russe really quick to buy some sandals for my dresses and I decide I am done.

It's now 2:00 and I am exhausted. Here I am hungry and tired carrying all these heavy ass bags halfway around the globe. Even though I am only going to the food court, it feels like I'm walking 40 miles because my arms and fingers are hurting from the bags. I feel great though, I love to shop but I usually only buy a few items so it felt pretty fantastic to splurge a little. I only spent about 500 on all the stuff I bought because of my handy dandy coupons and because God blessed these stores with clearance racks.

Finally making it to the food court I put my bags at a table where I can see them. I go to the Japanese place to order some teriyaki chicken with white rice and cabbage. I'm not one for fast food but it's convenient. I try not to eat junk because I weigh around 175 even though I go to the gym and play soccer. It's probably genetic or something. I'll never be skinny but at least I can be sort of fit. Although I'm pretty self confident most of the time, I still have my insecurities. I'm a thick and solid kind of girl who's thighs rub together, and belly sort of pokes out, and who's arms are kind of meaty but at the end of the day I'm still great.

On my way home I stop by the book store and pick up a few books. I love reading, and since I don't really go out, it's all I do. I pay my fees and drive home. Once I reach my destination, I hop out of the car and lug all of my bags to the front door. I unlock the door and proceed to make my grand but clumsy entrance. I shuffle through the door and walk to the living room to see my dear sister Melissa eating out of the container of cheese balls like a dog, and watching The Foster's.

"WHAT UP BITCH! Guess who's sexy ass just went shopping!" I yell knowing she'd get mad.

She looks up at me slowly. "YOU DO THIS EVERY FUCKING TIME! YOU KNOW THAT EVERY SINGLE MONDAY THE FOSTERS COMES ON, AND YET YOU STILL DECIDE TO BOTHER ME!"

"Melissa shut the fuck up. You and I both know damn well you have all of these episodes recorded."

"And? Maybe I like to watch it while it's showing on tv because it seems more real."

I stare blankly at her then blink a few times to make sure I hear her correctly . "If you don't shut your annoying lips." Mel's ugly self doesn't have a comeback so she sticks her tongue out at me and does a hideous neck roll.

"Very mature Melissa dearest. Now look at all the stuff I got!"

"Jesus girlie! How much did you spend?"

"Only like $500. You know I got them coupons and you know I go straight to the back to them clearance racks!" I say in my fake ghetto voice.

"Yeah no. Ghetto does not sound good coming out of your face. First your voice is way high pitched and you talk way too properly to be ghetto."

"Asshole. My voice is not high pitched." Yes it is. "And I talk proper because I have a fantastic education thank you very much."

"And there's no problem with that either. I'm gonna go raid your closet before you pack all of your stuff up."

"Go ahead. Are we getting furniture tomorrow?" I asked.

"Yeah but we're gonna bring it back here. I think we should go to your apartment and sanitize everything first. We have to make sure there's no bugs."

"Okay, sounds like a plan."

Melissa goes back to watching tv and I lug all of my clothes upstairs. I don't know what to do so I just slip into some pajamas and decide to watch my collection of Disney movies until I fall asleep.
