Today was New Years. This whole day I felt nervous. We had nothing to do today, so we stayed home. Nothing special happened today, just me laying on my bed with my phone in hand. I wanted 2017 to be the best year of my life! Probably the whole world was on my side with this. We also wished the same for 2016 but, let's not talk about that. I have a feeling that 2016 was no ones year. Thinking about that sent me shivers through my whole body again. I was scared 2017 was going to be as bad as this year. The nervousness was about to send me crying if they didn't call themselves. Yes, you might say "why are you nervous? It's just another normal day just a new year." Yes! It might be but, I have a feeling at the bottom of my stomach that something great is going to happen, I just don't know what!

I stayed there watching for the count down to start.

1:50 left

I hate my grapes in hand. I couldn't help it but a smile appeared on my face. I had a good feeling that 2017 will be a great year. If it isn't, I will stop anyone who tries to make it worse! Trust me! I will hurt anyone and everyone if they try me... that sounded very cynical. Oh god, that is not okay.

Luckily I had charged my phone before the countdown began. Happily it sat down at a hundred percent next to me. I unlock my phone, go to Snapchat and start recording.

"Happy New Years!" I screamed. We all began hugging each other and congratulating each other. I smiled the nerves finally going away.

On screen they played music and showed things that were live. Couples kissed, while family members or friends cried while hugging each other. Confetti was being strewed everywhere, the same music from last year played and the smiles were shared. Well, let's see if this year is going to be great!

-1 Week Later-

Today was the week I left for the University. I've been waiting ages for this! I'm so excited to go! I didn't want to leave my mom as she could be giving birth any day now. What am I talking about?! The baby's only a month or two. It's not like he's going to pop out any minute like, "surprise mother fucka!" He can't even speak yet.

I already packed my things that I was going to take. At first I was doubtful of the things I was going to take but, then I got more comfortable on them as the University is only 10-15 minutes away from this house. The list I had made was full of purple and blue checks from me checking off the things I really needed everyday like, toothbrush, toothpaste, clothes, etcetera. I smiled at my full suitcase. Suddenly a squeal escaped my mouth. Uncool, I know.

My stomach fluttered at the thought of going to the University. My whole body was shaking from the excitement I was building up. I gathered all my things and my keys. Taking deep breaths, I take my things to my car.

"I guess this is goodbye." I tell my parents. They give me a smile. Why does this feel like kindergarten all over again? It feels weird to be in the same situation again. I don't want to leave my parents but at the same time I'm excited to leave. Only because this is my biggest dream becoming real! I guess 2017 started with a great start... awkward 'cause so did 2016....

💜💜💜

It's finally 2017! And guess what that means? Nothing because we all said 'New Year, New me!' and nothing has changed! But good luck with this year. If you enjoyed this chapter please,
