SALMA's POV

Woken up by the sound of an alarm clock going off. The last term of being a senior, I was a little bit excited, I had a good feeling about this term. Unfortunately in dubai we have to wear uniforms. So I didn't have to take time to choose my outfit. I put my wavy light brown hair down as it reached mid back and applied some mascara, eyeliner and a little lipgloss.
Rushed downstairs and grabbed a cereal bar and headed off to my Car and went to pick up my friends Hannah and Charlotte
Hannah has a mixture of cultures, she's half Egyptian half British.
Charlotte is British and well, I'm Egyptian. I was born in egypt and moved to dubai when I was 9
Spent 8 years of my life in Dubai.
I was finally about to leave this place and go wild.
Don't get me wrong Dubai is awesome, but it would be nice to live somewhere else or go to places I've never been before!

My thoughts were interrupted by the sound of my car door being shut.
I looked to my right to see Hannah and Charlotte entering the Car with a goofy smile on her face.
"Hey there" Hannah greeted, more like sang. I laughed at how perky she seems all the time. " Hey to you to" I chimed trying to sound like her.
"Hey Lotty" I greeted. "haven't seen you in ages" we all broke out into laughter and started to sing along to the songs on the radio.

Walking into school Hannah had her nose shoved in her phone. "you seem over excited for the first day of the term?" I questioned as I raised my eyebrows at her.
"I've got an audition today" she replied quickly. We both started squealing in the middle of the hallway as we received stares from people around us. Hannah was talented at singing and getting an opportunity like this would mean she can finally make her dreams come true, and I was happy for her. Hannah and I walked into our first class and Charlotte went to her's.

After the first few classes we all sat in the falcon center. It's actually a place in the school that's only for seniors, it's a lot better than the cafeteria. Hannah told us that she would be moving to LA in the summer if she got a record deal after her auditions today. I was pretty excited for her but I was a little upset that she would leave me since we are really close.
After a long tiring day at school and dropping Hannah and Charlotte home before I headed off to my house. I lived in a pent house with my family that consisted of two brothers and a sister all younger than I am. Two of my siblings are about 13 years younger. I'm not as close with them as I am with my brother Omar.
Everyone at home seemed to be still at school or work, I've decided to search for houses in LA as i wanted to live there for so long. Since my family was rich they didn't want me to live in a trashy place. I found an apartment that was pretty big with a pool in the huge balcony. I immediately fell in love with the house and decided to buy it with the money my dad has saved for me to buy a house. After a few hours of doing homework and catching up with my family I decided to head off to bed.
