"Wake up Poppy!" My mum screamed from down stairs. It had come, a week away from a start college! I live in England and I'm going on my own to America, Arizona to go to collage which is actually my university because in England we have primary school, high school, then college then university's, then u do what u want. Back to the story....
I quickly do my morning routine and I surprisingly packed my suit case the night before. I then get changed and go down stairs while my mum is crying and my dad is rumbling on to her a bout rubbish. "Are we ready to go?" I asked. Then my mum just burst into louder crying. I roll my eyes and give her a hug. I look at the time and shouted that I'm gonna be late!
We all piled into the taxi, and in 15 minutes time we are at the airport.
"Yes got here in time" I sighed with relief.
We then got to the section where only passengers could go.
"So this is it!" I calmly said.
"Oh we are going to miss u dearly, lovely" my mum weeped.
"Have a great time pop-pop!" My dad annoyingly said.
"I will FaceTime u everyday and will ring u as soon as I get there okie?" I reassured my parents ( mostly my mum) I each here them one last hug then left with a gentle wave.
I get on the plane on my own. It's my first time on a plane without my mum. I was a bit frightened!
I was then searching for my row and seat.
"C24, c28, c31, c34! Found it!" I muttered to my self.
There was a man already sat there with a laptop and his headphones. He looked about late 30s.
I sat down and smiled at him politely.
A young girl came 2 minutes after me and seemed really nervier about some thing.
"Hi." I said.
"Hi" she replied. "Wow I'm really nervier, I'm going to university you see.
I nodded and smiling and asked "oh really? Where r u going?" She replies "add in later!" She explained.
"OMG same!" I answered.
" wow weird, so where are..." She said before getting cut off by the speaker form the plane by a air hostess. There was then a example and the plane started to drive, we got faster and faster , we then left the ground.
I asked the girl next to me what her name was she said. "Olympe, what's urs?"
I answer with "Poppy." "Wow ur name is amazing what country is it from?
"France!" she answered.
We then shared stories half the way there and we both fell asleep.Many hours later I git woke up by a new friend.
"WERE HERE!!!" She screamed. The whole plane looked at us. "We're here." She whispered. I laughed. I liked her, she was funny!
We got out the plane together and split the taxi money. We both quickly called our parents and explained to them that we made it and we mad a friend on the plane.
We mad it at the college. Both of our mouths dropped. It was ginormous! We got our suit cases and went to the reception where there was thousands of people in the room waiting. We queued up for half and hour. The lady told us we were roommates and we screamed with excitement. She handed over the key. And told us where to go!We made it to our new home for a couple of years. It was small but homey. We unpacked our stuff and went out to look around. We then had to get books we needed for our classes and we had to split up at one point.
"Yayy! I'm lost I thought to my self.
I managed to get my nape out my bag with a million books in my hand. Then looking at the map, not looking where I'm going I crashed into someone and fell to the ground, they also did.
