It was the night before highschool. My mom and i were at Target shopping for new clothes. So far i had a cute highlow dress with pink and white triangle stripes , a pair of brown sandals, and a jean jacket with a boho headband. My mom said,"Well that boho headband would look good since you died your hair ombree." I looked at her and nodded my head.

My cellphone rung and i looked at who was calling. It was my ex boyfriend, Mateo. I told my IPhone to ignore and send him a text saying I'm busy. He quickly replied,"Are you at Target? If you are then i can see you."

I said,"Creepy much...hold on okay?"

He said,"Okay."

Our Convo:

Me: "That's a bit creepy."

Him: "Sorry bout that but I'm here at Target too."

Me: "Oh okay...What are you doing here."

Him: "Late grocery shopping."

Me: "Oh okay. Wanna hang?"

Him: "Yes. Just let me ask my mom okay?"

Me:"Okay..."

Him: "She said Okay."

He walked over to me and i hugged him. He said,"So how much are you excited for highschool tomorrow?"

I said,"Well like i guess i have gotten to the point where i am elated."

He said,"Same here. So do you need help finding clothes you like?"

I said,"Um yes and no."

He said,"Why?"

I said,"Well I'm trying to find clothes that i like and that look good with my hair."

He said,"Okay. By the way i like what you did with your hair. You know...growing it out and dying it ombree."

I said,"Thank you." Then i ran to an outfit that i called gorgeous.

He said,"What if you pair that with this belt." I looked at him with an awkward stare. He said,"I'M NOT GAY!! It was just a light suggestion...Come in give me a break. I'm in the girls section, I'm pretty sure if you were in mine you would do the same."

I said,"Well its different because I'm a girl. I can be a tomboy. You in the girls section...I don't know how to explain it. I guess to me i find it gay."

Mateo looked at me and then used his finger and said,"Shame on you Miya Richey."

I said,"Yeah whatever."

He said,"Now do you see anything else you might like?"

I said,"Yes."

He said,"Okay well i think i found a bag you will fall in love with."

I said,"Okay go get it."

It was hours until i was done. Mateo was gone and it was just me and my mom.

When we were done we went home and i planned my outfit for the next day.

After that i went into the shower and when i got out i brushed my teeth and prepared to go to sleep. I said goodnight to my dogs, Cookie and Jersey. Then i closed my eyes and went to sleep.

Hours later, i woke up in the middle of the night because my body was very excited. I felt the need to text my buddy Sara. But i was to lazy to get my IPhone. I remember like it was just yesterday that me and my friends were making fun of the iPhone. We thought about jokes like the IStab, an iPhone with a knife. We also thought about the i touch. If there were an app that was for kids, it would be the i touch kids app. We laughed about it for hours.

I then noticed that my stomach was growling. Instead of grabbing a light snack, I grabbed my tub of Cookies n' Cream ice cream out of my mini freezer. So obviously it was icy cold.

That's when my dog, Cookie, came in saying,"Roo roo." She was asking if she could have some. I said,"No Cookie, you cant have this but you can have your doggie popsicles from pet co." I gave it to her and she was as happy as a mommy from having her first child.

After being up from 2-3, i decided to go back to sleep. I woke up again at 5:35. My mom told me to get up and get dressed. And that's when Sara texted me saying she has an outfit problem.
