Peyton walked up the hallway. Up the hallway a few doors up you will see your room. She replayed what the office had told her. She walked up the hallway and on the right there was her dorm number. Peyton smiled as she slipped the key in and opened the door. She stuck the key into her pocket. Blue and green walls greeted her surrounded with horse posters. She pulled her stuff into the room and set it on her unfinished bed. She pulled out her bedspread out of the duffle bag that sat on the floor. She set it onto the bed and made sure it was on right. She looked around her room. She didnt feel like unpacking everything. She looked down to see a box full of frames and pictures that she had brought from home. Some were of her and her horses and some were with friends having a crazy time. One was her in Italy with some of her Italy friends. She set some on the dresser and some on the desk. Even two on the bedside table. There now its a little bit like normal. Peyton laughed lightly. She never really had a home with being booked off to boarding school after boarding school.
Peyton looked out the window. She couldnt see the ocean, which in a way made her sad but she would be ok. She hadnt met many people yet at Canterbury. Better start unpacking. Peyton thought to herself. She put the clothes in the drawers and her shoes in the closet. She put everything else away and set her horse stuff by the door. She would take it down to the barn later when she went to visit May. She had a pink halter that set by a lime green one. Peyton liked the bright colors so she brought a long many with her. People liked to say she had a Pocket full of sunshine because she was so happy. Peyton wasnt always happy she always felt like she was being used sometime. She was always confused about guys but she tried to live her life to the fullest anyway. Her parents didnt make her feel much better while sending her off to different schools every semester. She grabbed her cell phone which started to play I dont wanna be in love. She was getting a text message from her friend from Italy. She grabbed the phone and read the text. It said "Hope your liking your new school" She quickly typed in a message.
She typed in another phone number. She typed "how you liking Canterbury cuz?" Levi her cousin went to school here but she found out about it a few days ago. He lived in Colorado. They had never met before but maybe would be the time to meet for the first time. She knew he liked sports and riding. Another text came into her phone. "You will never believe what happened?" Peyton sighed. She wished she could be back in her hometown with her family gossiping with her friends. She had gone to the public school up until the 6th grade. She had made great friends and they all couldnt wait to go to jr. high together but that would soon change. Peyton plopped down on her bed and looked at her journal. She had been keeping one for a few years now. She read her first day in Italy entry and just kept reading. It was something she liked to read to remind her how lucky she was to be traveling the world even though she didnt feel like that a lot of the time.
