This is it, moving day.
It's a bittersweet feeling really. Living with Lizzie was amazing and of course I would miss her, but I can't wait to start this new chapter of my life at NYU.
I pulled in to NYU and registered. This older collage girl showed me to my room and told me who my roommate was.
"You're roommates name is Aidan."
"Thank you...ehh...what's your name?" I muttered.
"Oh, silly me, I'm kayelen."
"I like that name." I awkwardly mumbled.
"Well... If you need me ever here's my number feel free to call." She smiled a smile that said "please don't call, I gave you my number because I have to not because I want to"
"Okay thanks..."
"Bye now." She shouted as she closed my dorm room door
I unzipped my bag lazily and pulled out my bed sheets. I started fumbling with the sheet that conforms to your mattress. After a few minutes of sorting I finally got the sheet on. I finished my bed and was now sitting on it, while charging my phone.
Bang.
What the hell?
I looked up to see the door kicked open. Followed my a pile of mangled fiery red curly hair. She dropped her suit cases and flipped her hair out of her face.
"Hi! I'm Aidan." She laughed extending her hand. I went to shake he hand, but she pulled me in for a hug.
"Umm hi I'm Elena." I chuckled awkwardly.
"I know kayelen told me on the way up." She beamed.
She was really pale with tons of freckles but they worked for her. She had piercing green eyes, and long eyelashes. She was wearing skinny jeans and combat boots with a black flowy tank top on. She was the type of girl who could pull off no makeup, and I could tell she wasn't wearing much if any at all.
"I think we need to figure this closet/dresser thing out." She took her bottom lip between her teeth in thought. I could hear her accent, but I couldn't decipher where it was from. All I could tell was that it was foreign.
As if she read my mind she answered.
"I'm from Ireland just in case you were wondering." She said blankly.
"Oh cool I've been there once when I was a kid to visit my aunt who went to collage at trinity."
"Cool.....okay I'll take this drawer and you take this one and we can split this one." She stated making hand gestures at the drawers.
"Umm ya that works.. And obviously we split the closet fifty/fifty."
"Yeah.. Hey I'm going to get food, don't wait up."
Dang.
She has really bad mood swings.

Much love,
