At the end of July‚ I considered giving up on writing again. With all the hours I poured into my last essay‚ it felt like a slap in the face that they didn’t even send a “thank you for trying” letter. I spent the announcement day sitting on my in-law’s porch sipping coffee with Baileys and stewing over yet another essay contest loss. Lacking in ideas of where I went wrong‚ I tried imitating old photos of authors again for inspiration. Leaning on the arm of the wicker chair with my chin resting on

I was panting‚ really hard‚ from running for so long. And now there’s a strange blue and black-haired girl who is currently yelling at me‚ telling me that I should come with her‚ from the other side of the diner. I duck as someone throws a water jug at my face‚ most probably thinking that I’m a flesh demon. Which I am most definitely not. Seeing it unfit to fight back‚ because I was heavily outnumbered‚ I quickly pulled my black hoodie down onto my face and swung myself from underneath the table

I walked out of my class feeling like complete trash. I mean‚ I was but I usually like to imagine I’m more than that. Collage sucks. Don’t go. My freshman year was great‚ I had the perfect first time freshman experience‚ partying‚ drinking‚ not really doing anything. That’s UCSan Diego for ya.

My first writing assignment was a literacy narrative. I had no knowledge of this topic. Once the professor explained to the class what a literacy narrative was‚ I started to think about what I could possible write about.
