Reflection

Chapter 4

7 AM and my phone alarm went off. My first college year start in about five hours... I'm kinda freaking out. Everything is ready though, just have to travel to campus and find Katherine. That's only if she isn't hanging out with her roomates. I haven't met her roomates yet but I sure am interested too. Katherine talked about them yesterday while we ate dinner in the living room. Her mom doesn't seem to fond of her roommate named Emily. I guess Emily has a mind of her own. She jams to punk rock music, has some tattoos, smokes weed and parties too much. But only time will tell what she's really like... I don't judge people by thier looks or hobbies, thier personality is how they are portrayed to me. 

8 AM now and im still casually lying in my bed. I needed some coffee to warm me up and get me moving. As my coffee was being made I went to the bthroom to brush my long mess of hair. I wish I could figure out a way to tame my hair. It was long, wavy and too thick for me. The smell of pumpkin spice filled my apartment as my coffee was done and the timer dinged. I feel lonely, no breakfest was made and I have to do everything on my own now. It's quite here, besides for my stupid neighbors dog. It barks constantly.

I grabbed my phone from the counter and went into the living room to watch some OnDemand. I needed to catch up on my favorite TV show "How To Get Away With Murder". I missed the last couple of episodes because well during the summer I liked to be with friends, go to the beach, or to the movies. Especially since I was moving away, it was like my goodbye to them.

Katherine sent me a SnapChat saying her and the guy Tyler have been talking. I didn't know what to reply. She snapped me again saying he lived close to our campus. We didn't even begin our college year yet and she was already talking to some guy... typical.

My stomach growled loudly for sometime. I decided to make some chocolate chip pancakes. Katherine texted me while I was in the middle of cooking, her text said "HII love, it's the BIG day. Coming over for some breakfest, see you in 10!" with a smiley emoji. I could only wonder what kind of gossip she had for me now that she talking to Tyler. My pancakes were done and I grabbed a plate full of them setting them on the dining room table when I heard a knock.

She gave me a hug and started talking about Tyler right away. I tried to offer some pnacakes but I guess she wanted to get advice first. I hated seeing her go around and round with a bunch of boys breaking thier hearts, kissing and telling. But if she were to find out he was out with another girl all hell would be lose.

She very bluntly put that she wanted to get in a relationship with him soon. He was "her type" he had brown hair with a side quiff, wore leather jackets and high tops. He was 18 and lived with friends, was in a band and really had the hots for Kate. She showed me pictures of him, honestly he looked like a complete douchebag to me... but all of Katherines boyfriends were the same to me. Maybe it was because she did the same thing with eachone. Dated for a little bit and broke-up. They would always fight constantly and make-out (to make-up from fighting) but they never did anything sexual.

I told Kate she needed to talk to him more a figure him out, but I knew that wouldn't happen. In a couple days she would come to me and say she has a boyfriend, later in the month they would brake-up, it was normal for her. After I gave Kate my advice she finally had grabbed some pancakes and juice. We watched some more TV until 11 and ended up getting ready together. She used the bathroom while I got ready at my vanity. I had to choose a outfit from my new clothes, had to look my best on the first day. I picked a military jacket with a cream sweater and some black skinny jeans. I curled my hair and did my natural make-up look.

Mine and Katherines class started at noon and the bus stopped at the corner at 11:45 so we decided to head out there with our backpacks and books in hand. I was used to driving my Jeep around. The bus showed up and it looked empty, thank gosh! Me and Katherine sat together. It only took about five minutes to get there after we picked everyone else up. With ten minutes to spare before class started we figured we needed to find what building and level our classroom was on.

We found Political Science in the North Building: floor 2 room 203. We walked into the room and found seats. It was a pretty full class. We only went over our syllabus and were able to leave after we made our seating chart. Next I had a forty-five minute break before English and so did Katherine. Her next class was Physics.

My stomach was growling again and I could smell some delicious chicken nuggets and fries when I walked into the library lounage area. My mouth watered and I knew I needed food. I got in-line, but someone whispered my name. I turned around to see Katherine behind me ordering her food she wanted. I looked past her and saw a boy, he looked like he was in my Political Science class. Kate had a smirk on her face.
