New York City. The place to be on New Year's Eve. My best friends, Rose and Alice, and I are here in New York to watch the ball drop, and, of course to find someone to kiss at midnight. Alice says that we are going to find our perfect guys tomorrow night. Of course, Alice is always right, so I'm gonna trust her judgement.
"Bella!" Alice banged on the bathroom door that I'm currently using. I grabbed my toiletries bag, and finished fixing my hair. Alice is one of my best friends and has been since elementary school. She's under five feet, and has black spiky hair. If you didn't know her you'd probably mistake her as a pixie.
"It's all yours." I said, as I unlocked the door and let her in. She started fluffing her spiky black hair in the mirror. I left the bathroom, and slumped down on my bed. Alice and I shared a bed and Rose got the other one. It wasn't weird to us, since we've been roommates through four years of college. The only reason Rose is the one with her own bed is because she steals all the covers. Alice and I can't stand it, so that's why we share a bed.
Rose was flipping through the channels on our TV and finally settled on the news. Nothing interesting.
"Did you finish up all your resolutions for this year? You're gonna have to start another one." Rose asked, obviously getting bored with the news. Rose was probably the prettiest girl in our sorority. She had super blonde hair, and big blue eyes. She was tall and thin, and curves in the right places.
"Most of them. I just have to visit the Statue of Liberty and I'm all set." I said, looking at my list that I wrote exactly one year ago on this day. I've started my list for next year, but I'm not done yet.
"Well, lucky you, because today's our 'Finish our resolutions' day.'" She smiled at me.
"Ha. Ha." I faked laughing. "What do you have left?" I ran through my list one more time just to make sure I didn't forget anything. This years list consisted of stupid things like, learn how to play guitar, travel, try sushi, go to the gym more, and go to the Statue of Liberty. I finished most of these things in the first few months. Except the Statue of Liberty one.
"Find a boyfriend who's not a dick." She joked. Alice came skipping out of the bathroom, with her skinny jeans and leather jacket on. I was wearing yoga pants and an old sweatshirt from high school without the hood. Rose was wearing a pair of skinny jeans and an old long sleeve shirt.
"We better get going. We have a full day to finish our resolutions, and to get all of our 2011 gear." She grabbed her Coach purse that was sitting on an ugly chair in the corner with the weird patterns on it. I've always hated those hotel rooms that smell like smoke and have the weirdly patterned furniture. And that's exactly the place we had to stay, because we couldn't afford anything else.
Rose and I grabbed our bags and we left to go finish her list. One of Alice's was try New York Cheesecake, which I probably would've put that down if I'd actually thought of it. Rose had nothing left and I just had the one thing.
The first thing we went to do is to the restaurant down the street to grab a slice of cheesecake. Alice ordered the original cheesecake and Rose and I picked the chocolate truffle cheesecake. And it really is the best cheesecake in the country. It's moist and creamy, kind of like whipped cream but better.
After that, we went down to south side of Manhattan and took a boat to the statue, and boy was it cold. The waters were rough and the wind was whipping our hair back and forth. We got off at the island, and quickly took a few pictures then left.
Now it's time to write my new list.
The next day we slept in until ten and grabbed a quick breakfast before we headed to Times Square. I took a coffee, because I knew I was gonna need it.
We took a taxi, but the people here drive crazy compared to Forks, my hometown.
We made it to Times Square and I payed the driver, since Alice and Rose payed for the breakfast. Alice wasn't quite ready to go wait in a crowd, so we did a little shopping. We shopped at random stores for a couple hours, but I didn't find anything. Plus, I would have to carry it around with me. Once we finished we grabbed a quick bite around three.
Before we joined the crowd, we bought our 2011 gear. At around four thirty we made it to the front of the crowd, by the silver fences. Since there was around seven and a half hours left I decided to start on my list. I finally thought of one after fifteen minutes and wrote it down. 'Learn How to Play Piano'.
"What are you writing?" I looked up, and there he was.
Okay so I know it's super duper short but I just want to know if you guys like it. Thanks! Review!
