I threw the letter from Blakely Ridge Boarding High School into my purse. I took one last look at my now empty room and walked down stairs and hopped in the van with my mom and dad for the 5 hour drive to San Fransisco.

"Hon! Wake up! Were about to be on Blakely Ridge campus!" My mom said in a bubbly voice

"Aghdublehfuu" I responded still asleep.

"Oh honey her apartment is on the west side of campus."

"No, Anne. It's on the East!"

"No, James. It's the west!"

My parents disagreement woke me up and I replied, "No, Mom and dad. It's on the South. Look, there is a huge sign right there saying 'Bentin Apartments, South.''' I said pointing out of the window.

They ignored what I said but still followed the way I pointed. Soon, My parents loaded all my stuff out of the van and the U-HAUL.

"Okay guys. You can leave now! The move in-worker-people are going to be here in like 10 minutes."

"Okay honey, be safe, make friends with your roommate, clean up any messes you make, don't cause trouble, and call soon." My mom said

"Mom, Your going to see me in 2 days for parent and student orientation, chill out." And with that, we said our goodbyes. The move in people came and helped me put together my room and everyhting else. The apartment was actually surprisingly big. When you walked in, on your left was the kitchen and straight ahead was the living room which had a huge window which took up most of the wall. To the right was a small laundry room where a washer and dryer were and a shoe closet was next to it. If you walked straight, right before you reached the living room, My room was on the left and my roommates was on the right, I chose the left one because it had a bathroom. there was a small bathroom that didn't have a shower, just a toilet and a sink in my soon to be roommate bedroom. But It's okay, whoever my roommate is, i'll let her use my bathroom.

I stepped into my room and surfed over the channels on the TV nothing interesting was on so I decided to grab my penny board and ride around campus. I checked myself in the mirror, grabbed my phone, the keys to the apartment, a pamphlet that told you what was on campus, and my penny board and left to take a look around. I was rolling down a sidewalk headed towards a coffee shop that was marked on the pamphlet. Using my foot to turn if anyone was walking. I tried to turn, but a boy coming towards me bumped into me making my board flip from under me and the pamphlet fly out of my hands.

"What the fuck is wron with you? Are you fucking retarted! I mean seriously why the fuck didn't you move!" The boy yelled hovering above me as I bent down to get my board and the pamphlet.

"Excuse you. No, I'm not 'fucking retarted' jerk. Accidents happen. I couldn't turn fast enough." I said staring at him as I hopped back on my bored.

He stared at me and scoffed.

"Bitch." He said as I rolled away. I didnt look back but I stuck my hand in the air and flicked him off.

"Hi, can I just have a coffee with 3 creams and 5 sugars, two scones, and a blueberry muffin?" I said to the cashier at the coffee house.

 "Alright that will be $10.23." I gave him the cash and rode back to my apartment.

The door was unlocked but I could have sworn I locked it before I left...? Whatever. I walked to my room and set the food and coffee on the night stand to changed out of the jean shorts and blouse i was in. I picked out some tribal print sweat pants and a sports bra. After changing, I sat on the bed and munched on the scone and scrolled through twitter on my phone. I shoved  he scone in my mouth when I heard the front door open. I rushed to swallow the scone and brushed off my hands to go greet my new roommate. I walked out of my bedroom and immediatly smelled boys cologne. I really hope this girl Isn't a slut who brings a different boy to her bed every night.
