"Are you serious? Music college? Oh my god I love you dad!"
I squealed and jumped into my dad's arms. He just got me and my band into a music college. Best dad ever. I called the rest of the band. They all screamed and squealed.
"Meet me at my house, 7 o'clock. K?" I texted the band. If you're wondering what my band is like, here you go: I'm the lead guitarist, Nina is the lead singer, Kevin is the bassist and Jeff is the drummer. We're a pop-punk band. We're not famous or anything, but we're working on getting a record deal or something. By the way, we're called the step-up. Lame, I know."Tessa!" Somebody squealed from behind me. I turned around and blue eyes slipped into vision. Nina's.
"omg I love you! Music college! Aaahhh!" She yelled and hugged me.
"I know!" I smiled.
"Oh and, who let you in? You scared the shit out of me."
"Your dad."
I nodded. After a few minutes, Jeff and Kevin came in. We talked and screamed for hours. Yeah, we scream a lot. When it got 11 we decided to call it a night and they got back to their houses.
I laid in my bed that night, thinking about all the adventures I'll have in college.-1 month later-
October 2009
I woke up to the -beautiful- sound of rain. Slowly, I got off of bed and headed downstairs. My dad and my big brother were already sitting on the counter having breakfast, fully dressed. Huh. Weird.
"Why aren't you dressed yet?" My brother yelled. "Don't tell me you forgot..."
"Forgot what?" I asked, confused.
"Oh god"
What was happening.
I looked at my phone. Then it hit me.
Oh my god...oh my god! How could I possibly forget! Today was the first day of college! I ran to my room and changed into some skinny jeans, a green day sweater, and docs. 50% of my clothes were band merch.
I threw my bag on my shoulders and went downstairs to have breakfast.
"I'll miss you so much" I hugged my brother and he hugged me back.
I went to the car and sat in the passenger seat. My eyes got watery but this was no time to cry.
The road to college was long, and I kept glancing back to the town. God I'll miss it. I glanced back on last time. The more we drove the more the buildings got smaller. Then... Poof. It disappeared.
"Nervous?" Dad chuckled. I wasn't exactly nervous, since my bestfriends were there with me.
I shook my head no.
In about an hour we got there. The building was so beautiful. "I love you dad" I smiled and hugged him.
"I love you too, princess" he kissed the top of my head. I grabbed my suitcases and jogged to the front door. There was so many kids, oh god. Some of them were hugging and kissing eachother, the others looked nervous and lost. I tried to find Nina when I saw the rest of the band waving at me. I smiled and ran to them, giving each one a big hug.
We were talking and then some lady interrupted us by speaking in the microphone :"Bands, please head to the right building, the other please head to the left building. Have a good day."
Bands had a building for themselves? Awesome! We checked in and me and Nina went to our dorm room. It wasn't small, and it wasn't big, with two beds, two desks and two wardrobes. I tidied my side of the room and Nina did the same. After half and hour, everything was perfect. We had posters on the wall and everything. When the boys finished their room, we all went out for a walk. There were little groups everywhere; band, most probably. They were all different genres; emo, pop, country, punk, rock...
Oh my god. I love this place.
We sat by the pool. It was pretty awesome that they had a pool. Not that people are gonna use it, it's always cold. Meh, still awesome. On the other side of it there was four good looking boys. One of them had a nirvana shirt on. He looked cute, I guess. We made eye contact and that was where I realized I was staring at him. Shit.
I immediately broke out of it and joined the conversation that the others were having.
We stayed there till 11 then a guard told us that it's time to get in the building. Ruuuuude.------
I collapsed on my bed. Ugh, I just wanna sleep forever.
"What do you wanna do now?" Nina asked.
"Sleep" I turned on my side and put a pillow over my head.
"NEVER" she threw a pillow at me. Idiot. "Show me your schedule"
I handed to her. "WOOO! We have the same schedule!"
I rolled my eyes and changed into my pj's.
