Random Impulse: Week 9-1

This is what I wrote for the assignment we did in the quad. It definitely needs some expanding to make it more interesting. But here is what I have so far. 
“Could this day get any worse,” I thought. I should have skipped school today when I spilled hot coffee all over me in the morning. I should have taken that as a sign. My stomach feels all tangled inside. I came outside hoping a breath of fresh air would make me feel better, but it’s not really helping. Maybe it’ll help if I lie down. I remember my mum always said a little bit of sun will turn an upside down day all okay. I miss my mum, I miss my childhood. Life was so easy when I was in junior high, heck it was so much easier when I was in high school as well. Maybe I should have listened to my parents. They didn’t think I was mature enough to move out of home to go to college. They said I should stay with them for at least the first two years and that then I could go to any university I wanted. I had wanted to get out for a long time, and the day I graduated high school, no one was going to hold me back. The first year away was fun; I was a social butterfly, partying all the time while also doing not too badly in my course work. It all changed when I looser of a guy. It’s all his fault, I hate what he’s done to my life. As much as I hate to admit it, I was very naïve. That’s why my parents wanted me to stay at home and go to college. They said I was too naïve, they said I wasn’t ready to face the cruelties of the world. I wanted to prove them wrong, but now I’ve proved them right. I shouldn’t have given him my bank details, but I trusted him and I didn’t want him to suffer. He said he loved me, he said I was the only girl who has ever felt like he could spend the rest of his life. He fooled me, he fooled me right in front my eyes. He took all my money, maxed out my credit cards, and left with no way to track. Now I’m here sitting in this bloody sun. Why is the sun shining, it’s not supposed to shine when my life is falling apart. I need to get out of here, I need to get out of this world.
