I turned eighteen years old. I was finally an adult so I decided to throw a big party for all my friends and my mother. But I had to do a lot of things before I could give a party. First I needed a location. I looked online and I found the perfect place: Night Light. Then I needed an outfit that was #OnFleek, because I am #OnFleek. The location and outfit were complete and the only thing I had to do was to buy a lot of snacks and a lot of coke and make sure that I had the music that everybody likes. Now I was ready to throw my birthday party. Everybody I knew came and we had such an amazing time. We played games like Never have I ever, Truth or Dare and Spin the Bottle. We've played for hours and hours and went home at 4 o'clock in the morning. When I was home I slept until 2 PM. I woke up and I felt like I was drunk. I took a shower and the feeling went away. By the time that I was all dressed up it was already 5 PM and I started cooking, because mom wasn't home yet. Mom came home, dinner was ready and we watched a movie. The next day I started to look for houses and I found one that I immediately fell in love with. I looked at the price and saw that I couldn't afford it so I started to save money until I finally had enough to buy the house. Months went by and I finally had enough to buy the house and so I did. I was so happy that I lived in the house of my dreams. I immediately went to WILD Furniture to buy furniture for my house. It was a whole process of moving in and decorate it and I was lucky enough that my mom was there to help me, because I had no idea what colours go well together (and I still don't). Once my house was completely finished decorating, I decided to get a dog. I wanted a dog for so long and the time had come for me to get one. I looked for dogs that I can adopt and I visited a lot of places to find one, but no one had a dog that I felt a connection with. After a two weeks a friend of mine came up to me and asked: "You're looking for a dog, right?" and I said yes. He showed me a picture of a cute puppy. He told me that if no one adopted him, he would be killed. I was shocked and I said that I want to meet the puppy. He made an appointment and the next day I got to meet him. The first time I saw him I immediately felt a special connection with him and I proudly said: "I'll take him." I adopted him and he was just the cutest and sweetest little puppy that I've ever met. I took him home and he immediately felt at home. I looked at him and he looked at me in the eyes and I knew what to name him. I named him Blue. My life was almost complete. I had great friends, the best mom ever, my new puppy Blue, but I missed something in my life. Someone. Someone who can be with me, who can love me. I wanted a boyfriend.
