Hi. I'm Brooklyn Bluefield. And this is my story. I rewound the footage, my fingers moving swiftly over my computer keys. I watched some frames for a few more seconds, cutting and adjusting the timing.

Movie making was where I could work my magic here at NYU. My older brother's friend, Luke, had taught me all about film-making when he was hanging out with us one night. Luke, however, had left one month ago for California, to go to a film school. Right now, I was editing the first few seconds for the soon-to-be film about my college life, to send to Luke.

I watched the computer screen, trying to synch out some details. I sighed, and hit the off button on my Mac laptop, gently closing the top shut. I stretched up my arms and glanced at the clock. It was already 2 in the morning? I didn't know being a freshman at NYU meant getting almost 3 hours of sleep at night.

I yawned as I settled into bed, pulling my deep purple comforter up to my chin. I had to move in with a new roommate. She and I both had previous problems with our old roommates, so NYU moved us in together after both of our numerous complaints.

My new roommate's name was Camille. She was fast asleep right now, not making a sound. She was drop-dead gorgeous, and she was a major in Marketing, while I was majoring in Film.

I heard the faint honk of a taxi as I closed my eyes and rolled over. Tomorrow, I was hitting up some place called The Vault for the first time. Luke had invited me there multiple times before he left, but I never had time to visit. Tomorrow, however, I was completely free.

Luke made it seem like that the place was pure fiction. It sounded like a fairytale because of the way he described it. Like only the queens and kings of dance lived there.

I closed my eyes. Maybe tomorrow would be magical.

I stared at my tall, lean body in the mirror. I was wearing very dark-wash, very-skinny skinny jeans, black high top converse, and my old purple and black high school letter jacket (it was only 10 degrees outside!)

Now, I only had to do my makeup.

I decided to go for the natural look today. I only dabbed a bit of foundation of my mostly clear skin, brushed some peach eyeshadow on, and swiped some very black mascara on my long eyelashes.

I smiled one more time in the mirror, grabbed my camera and wallet, and then I was gone.
