When I finally graduated, I was friggin sick of Pennville. Sure, smalltown living has its occasional perk, but there are way more setbacks. I had to get away before it sucked me in. When I got my letter from Madison Lake University, I knew things were about to turn around. Everything was taken care of- classes, books, even a dorm room. And yeah, dormliving might not be glamorous, but it beat the hell out of living in my parents house. At first, I was really excited about getting away and meeting new people, but when I went to claim my room, I was told they’d already given it to someone else. What the hell? Since I couldn’t go home with my tail tucked between my legs, and my scholarship doesn’t cover off campus living, I had to take a job as a housekeeper for this golddigger, who leaves me to babysit her 21 year old charge- a tomboy with zero social skills. She spends her day playing videogames and expects the same from me. . Thanks to some jackass in Scholarships, my entire scholarship has been purged from the system, leaving me to scramble to get things fixed. Guess I'm stuck here until I can find a part time job. This isn’t the direction I thought my life would take, but I can’t go crawling back to Mom and Dad just yet. They'd never let me hear the end of it.
