Ever since we were in middle school, we had a plan. A plan all set out for what we were gonna be. We were small girls with huge dreams. And we finally made it happen. I am here currently standing in OUR apartment writing this. An apartment? Where you might ask? In Las Angeles, California. This is where me and my best friend JJ pictured our selves 6 years ago, sitting in our 7th grade class planning out our lives. And it finally happened.

Me: "I can't believe we're here right now!"

JJ: "Me neither. Gizelle, it's always been us against the world you know this."

Me: "Damn you're gonna make me cry. What the hell."

JJ: "Cry away." She let out a giggle.

Me: "So... What the fuck do we do now?"

JJ: "We..." She didn't even know. "Well, ummm. We unpack?"
There was nothing to unpack into. Our apartment was completely empty. No furniture, no food, just us and our clothes.

Me: "You do realize there's nothing to unpack our clothes into?"

JJ: "Did not realize that until now."

Me: "Well, we do have our mattresses coming in pretty soon, and our couch."

JJ: "When exactly is that gonna be?"

Me: "The mattresses come in a few days and the couch comes in a few weeks." It was in the moment I realized we had nothing to sleep on.

JJ: "How the hell are we supposed to sleep?"

Me: "By laying down and closing our eyes?" I always became sarcastic when I was in a sticky situation. Which as you can tell, we were currently in. "I think we can go to the store and buy some blankets and pillows and make one big mattress on the floor until our mattresses come in?"

JJ: "Holy shit. You were actually helpful." She gets sarcastic too.

Me: "Oh shut up. I didn't see you come up with any idea."

JJ: "Damn."

Me: "Exactly" I joked. We play around way too much.
At the end of the night
JJ and I went out and bought nothing but blankets and food and pillows. That's all we need to survive right now to be honest.
I put food away in the fridge while she set the blankets up on the floor until it felt like we were sitting on clouds. I put so many blankets in the cart at Walmart because I absolutely cannot sleep on hard floors. Unless it has carpet. But in our situation, no carpets were involved.

Me: "You wanna know the best part about being an adult?" I asked her while she was lying on our "mattress"

JJ: "Well There's a lot of things. But what are you thinking of?"

Me: "That we bought nothing but chips, ice cream, and soda to survive off of for the next few days." I let out a laugh and when I made eye contact with her while she was in the living room I began laughing even more. (A/N: This tends to happen in school. Me and her sit all the way across the room from each other and we have our inside jokes. So we look pretty stupid in class laughing while no one understand anything that happens😂) I finished putting all the "food" away and I went to lie down right next to her.

JJ: "I'm hungry."

Me: "Me too."

JJ: "Well we can't eat anything yet, all we bought was junk food."

Me: "Yeah, I know. I want real food."

JJ: "We should've bought food." We both laughed but then instantly stopped as we realized we were starving and had a long day of moving into a new place.

Me: "It's only 10. Maybe we can get some pizza or In n' out?"

JJ: "Oh! In n' out! We've always wanted to try that together!" In our hometown, there was no In n' out, so this was a great opportunity.

Me: "Hell yeah!" I shouted as I got up and put on my shoes. She did the same. We walked outside onto the beautiful boulevard, and walked to the fast food restaurant, as we were about to be fat asses. I don't remember exactly what we got. But all I remember is that we enjoyed our first meal in our first apartment ever as adults.

JJ: "We're making it bestie."

Me: "I know. You and me against the world."
