Today is the day! First day of college. I've been looking forward to this day since I started high school. Let me introduce myself. I'm Jade Butterfield, just graduated and I'm 18 years old. I'm a New York girl and I'm proud. I've always had good grades and I want to keep it that way. I never had any interest interest in boys because they'd never want to date a nerd like me. In high school I had terrible acne and braces. I also have my glasses but I got a lot of comments on them so I got contacts. You can say I changed really well this summer. My long golden locks were almost always in a bun or a ponytail but from now on not anymore. I'm ready to enjoy life. While I was introducing myself I forgot to mention I arrived at my dorm. I'm ready for my new life. When I entered my dorm I saw a nice looking girl around my age. She has midlong black hair and blue eyes. I said a briefly hello and she replied with a friendly smile. Guess I won't get a lot of words from her.. She putted some nice music on trough speakers so we could both enjoy. She had a great taste in music actually. I started to pack my stuff out and get it organized and nice looking. I hung my pictures with my friends back home on my wall. I cought my roommate looking at them. 'They look nice huh?' She looked surprised because I was talking to her. 'Yeah they do, I'm Sofie.' Well I'm happy she has a name. 'My name is Jade, it's my first year here and I'm really excited.' 'Well since I am doing my freshman year again maybe we have some classes together?' She took her schedule and so did I. To my surprise we had 4 classes together. I saw I am starting my day tomorrow with literature. My class starts at 9 'o clock so I set my alarm at 7:30am. So I have time to take a shower and dress me up nicely. It's now 6pm so I can take a look around if I want. 'Hey Sofie, do you want to go to Starbucks together?' 'Yeah sure.' We left right away. While we were walking we talked about some random stuff. We got to know eachother while we drank our hot coffee. Sofie her hometown is LA, lucky her. Always good weather and beach. She had a lot of friends there but when she started college, two years ago, they all left her alone. It's pretty sad. By time we looked at our watch we saw it was already 8:30pm, looks like we talked really long. We went back to our dorm and got ready for bed. The lights went off and I drifted in to a deep sleep. I hope tomorrow goes well.
