Chapter 6. New Dates and New Friends.
The next afternoon Shelbee and I decided to decorate our dorm and tried to find something to do for the next week considering school didn’t really start till then. Shelbee consistently gave me the run down on One Direction along with Niall. Like I care? Pffft. Not a bit. (So apparently they have a whole CD out, there own book, a movie, and are world’s #1 boy band. Miss much? I think so.)

Me, Alex, and Shelbee, were getting together today at central park. I rose out of bed and reached for a towel in the closet. I turned the light on in the bathroom and was mortified about my appearance. My hair had been in a pony tail all night and it was barley holding any hair back. My face had been splotched with black spots due to yesterday’s make up. I had on blue varsity jack wills sweat pants and a grey t-shirt with some kind of logo on it. Not to mention they were wrinkly from tossing and turning in my dreams. I stripped down and turned the handle of the shower and warm water came spewing out. I love showers, something about them just makes my mind slow down and smell the roses. I washed up quickly and washed the remains of my cherry-Pomegranate scented shampoo out of my hair. I pulled the curtain back and wrapped the pink towel I had set on the granite counter top, around my wet body. I ventured out too my dresser and pulled out my clothes. I looked back at Shelbee’s bed, empty. I assumed she went and got breakfast, only knowing her for about a week, that’s what she did every morning except Saturday mornings because that was her ’Sleep in Day’ . I pulled out my clothes out of the dresser and put together a waist high poke-a-dot skirt, along with a white puffy blouse and of coarse my navy toms. I pulled the towel out of my hair and ran a brush threw it’s baffling mess. I smoothed out my waves and let them air dry along with a defrizzing serum. I stepped into the bathroom to fix my make up. I did more of a natural theme agnowloageing we were only going to the park. I put on minimal mascara and a coat of foundation, lastly I applied on a brush bit of blush. I gave myself a look in the full length mirror and was satisfied. My heels clicked against the bathroom tile as I walked to my blackberry to check my messages.
4 new messages.
1 from Shelbee: Gone to get breakfast for us, be back in a bit.
1 from my mum: Hope all is well Sar! We miss you lots, love you! :)xx.
2 from Alex: Be there at 1!!!!
Alex: Got a new fashion magazine in the mail, WAHOOO!!!! :D
Alex always gets excited over the littlest things in life, thats why I love her. I texted all of them back and just then Shelbee gaited through the door. She was fully dressed and had a box of donuts. “Hey Sorry, I took so long! The shop was crowded!” She said setting all her stuff on her bed.
“No problem” I took the box of donuts and shoved one in my mouth like I haven’t eaten for days, what can I say, I just love donuts. Shelbee had on waist high shorts and a crop top, her aviators set the outfit in place and she sat down and looked past me.
“Yes?” I said at a complete loss.
“Sorry! A letter just popped through the mail slot, that’s strange we usually never get mail this early.” Shelbee went to go get the letter and picked it up.
“Read it out loud please!” I said.
She did so, and proceeded.
“To Ms.Robertson & Ms. Monroe, we are informing you school is starting a few extra days earlier due to construction at the end of the school year. The new start date will be August 31, 2012 and classes start at 8:20 am. We are sorry to inform you on such short notice, thanks for your consideration.
The NYU District Council.
She set the letter down on the table and flopped backwards on her bed. “That’s only 2 days away Sarah, then school freaking starts. This is so retarded”
“This is rubbish. Well lets make the next two days as fun as possible!” I blurted.
“lets do it! But, we have to get out of here before we are going to be late!” she got up, packed up the donuts and cleaned up.
“right, you’ll love Alex, she’s a blast!!” I told her.
Within 5 minutes we locked up the dorm and were on our way to Central Park. We had walked to the park because it was a beautiful day and we had left a tad early for this purpose.
There is just something about New York that I’m in love with. I don’t know what it is, the lights? The people? The fast pace? I have no idea, but I love the atmosphere , it is just amazing. It reminds me that I’m that much closer to my career than I even realize. I am right around the corner to my new permanent life. Women and men chatting away on cell phones and photographers taking a snapshot and freezing that exact memory and moment in time. Mothers clutching onto their children from the hobos against the walls of humongous buildings. Everybody’s on a mission to get where they need to go. Buildings scrapping the sky as clouds gather around them making you loose site of it after attempting to look up for the top of it. Horns honking, people selling, and its all part of this new wonderful place that im willing and glad to call my new home.
We arrived to see Alex sitting on the big fountain right in front of the stairs “Hey stranger!” I called to her.
She looked up from her phone and smiled when she finally found me out of the sea of people.
“Hey!” She yelled back.
“This is Shelbee Monroe, my room mate. Shelbee this is Alex Monnrey my best friend.” I introduced them.
“Hello, its nice to finally meet you! Your Irish too?” She greeted Al with in suprise.
“Yes we are, ha ha. And its nice to meet you too! Your gorgeous by the way!” Alex said, I love it when Alex is nice to people. Sometimes she comes across as a total badass bitch.
“Aw, thank you! Your just as bit of gorgeous too!” Shelbee complimented her grinning from ear to ear.
“Do you guys want to get a boat and go around the lake?” Alex suggested.
“Yeah!” Me and Shelbee harmonized.
“I’ll get in line! Hurry up guys!” Alex shouted to us, and with that we all raced to the boat dock.
**
That whole day was pretty freaking fun if you ask me. We flipped our boat and got kicked out, pigged out on New York style hotdogs and later went to this adorable little boutique. Every bit of that day was filled with laughter and happiness.
