its hard being 20

Me Just Being Me

Me and Nicole walk into the conference room and see the other students there waiting. "I guess it was the conference room huh." Says Nicole "see I told you we would find it." I responded. We both find seats near the front of the room so we can get the full experience of the class. Just like the first time we hear clacking in the hall way and the Ms. Macintire walks through the door this time wearing black slacks and a bright yellow blouse. I think to myself how gorgeous she is everytime I see her. "okay class, today were gunna see what talent you guys are best at. Who here is good at drawing designs?" About 8 out of 15 people raise their hands and the other half kind of look around like oops "okay who here is good at sewing and putting together an outfit." About 4 of the other people and 6 of the drawing people raised their hands, thankfully for me I know how to do both. "okay it looks like we have enough people that know what they're doing to pair everyone up, the people that know what they're ding pair up with the girls that don't know that way everyone can learn more than they know." I look over at Nicole and give her a smile and she kind of looks at me like I'm sorry I don't know anything. "so, I know how to draw and put everything together but I'm not good at thinking of something to base it off of, if you think of an idea I'll show you how to do everything else and we can learn together? Okay?" "okay yea that sounds good let's do that." So as everyone gets started Ms. Macintire walks around looking at everyone and making a comment every now and again. As she came by our table she looked at it, looked at us both and said, "wow that design is really impressive, good job girls." As class wound down she stepped to the front of class and said "okay class tomorrow when we come in were going to present our designs to each other a describe why we drew what we drew and I will choose the best 2 and we will split in half and put it together in life, and now the most important thing. This class is 2 weeks long and I will slowly ask some people to leave after every class. If you don't get an email from me congrats your coming to the next class. I will see everyone tomorrow and if you're not finished trade numbers with your partner and get everything worked out and you'll have 10 mins tomorrow to get everything together, see you later," she finished with a smile and walked out. "wow" I say to Nicole "this class was really fun and we got everything done maybe just finish a little tomorrow but were good." "yea, I'm just nervous that I'm going to be the one leaving and I don't want to leave yet I want to prove that I can be better than anyone else in here. Except maybe you." Nicole said with a small laugh. Now that it was time to leave I was reminded that I have to go home to a lonely apartment and make myself dinner, maybe I'll order Chinese. As everyone is walking out I wave to Nicole and tell her ill see her tomorrow and get on the bus. I order my food on the way home so it's there soon after I get home. I don't think I'm ready to sleep in the bed alone so before I even get home I decide that I'll sleep on the couch. Hopefully it'll get easier tomorrow...
