Chapter one, A new beginning

My alarm is set to go off in 5 minutes. I haven't slept all night, shifting back and forth. Counting the lines in the ceiling, listening to the cars driving in the streets from Northampton.

Tomorrow is the first day of college. I have been waiting for this for ages. I have always wanted this so so badly. And today is the big day. My secondary school friends don't go to the same college as me. But we promised to keep in contact with each other.

All of a sudden my favourite song bursts through my room. It's my alarm. Stockholm Syndrome. I don't know why but I just kinda love that song.

I get out of bed and take a shower. Once I am all dried up and my makeup is done I stand in front of my closet. I can't decide what to wear, since the first impression is the most important. I go for my favourite jeans and my new super dry sweater with my blue Adidas sneakers.

I head downstairs to get something to eat. My mom already made me breakfast and got me some fresh orange juice and an Iced frappuccino to go. Half an hour later I jump on my scooter and head to the college of my dreams, Oxford. I am planning on studying at Oxford for a year before I go to America next year and attend Yale or Brown. I park my scooter and walk to my first class. English literature. I sit next to a girl. "Hey my name is Danielle. what's yours?" The girl asks. "Hey I'm Skylar! Nice to meet you!" I reply, we talk for a few minutes before class starts and I discover that we have two classes together this term.
