My name is Patience but you can call me Pat. Im 16 and me and my mom are new to Detroit. Im originally from Harlem,NY so this is a big move for me. I have carmel skin, hazel eyes and and burgundy (dark red)  hair that stops at me shoulder blades. Im 5'7 (tall right?) I love to sing and dance , im a natural performer. I start school at Cass High school this week and im really nervous. But i am excited for school shopping today!

"Patience!" My mom yells

"Yess" i yell

"You ready to go? "

"Yea" i lied i wasn't even dressed yet so i hurried and just threw on my black  love pink yoga pants with my white NYC hoodie and my black and white retro 4's. I quickly threw my damp curly hair in a messy bun on the top of my head and darted out the front door and into my moms 2014 jeep loredo .

"What took you so long irina" (my middle name)

"I had to pee ma" i lied again

AT THE MALL

We walked into victoria secret i needed some new pantie and bra sets after we left victoria secret my mom saw the spa and went crazy

"Here baby heres my credit card you have 2 hrs" she said and left

I began to walk around. I got on twitter and posted some selfies with the caption

@PatienceCorrect: At The Mall

I walked into forever 21. The bill was $1,375 I'm pretty sure my mom wouldn't mind. I had 1hr & 10 mins left so I decided to just go and get my nails done. As I was walking to the nail shop a group of guys walked by I heard one say " Aye ma what's yo name?"

Patience I said quietly

Well my name is Zay

I guess his friend saw I was getting annoyed and asked me did I want him to leave I noded Yes and laughed

"My name is Lo by the way nice to meet you. Sorry about him. "

"It's cool" I said and began to walk away. As I looked back he waved good bye and I did the same.

I entered the nail shop,signhed in and sat next to this pretty girl she had light skin, stood about 5'4 and had shoulder lenth hair.

"Was Zay out there harassing you" she asked laughing

I began laughing with her

"I little" i said trying not to laugh again.

"He is a mess . My name is Mariya." She put her hand out

I shook it

"Patience ,but you can call me pat if you want."

"Nice to meet you patience. Ive never seen you around her before"

"yeah  new i just moved in last week" i said

"I can tell by you NYC hoodie. Everybody here reps detroit"

"Its that noticible" i laugh

"Yeah" she laughs

"Its diffrent out here than where im from, but im most nervous for school next week"

"What school you goin to?"

"Cass High " I said

"Swear!"

" I go there!" she said excited

"Yay! At least I won't have to go in as a complete stranger"

A lady approached us

"Ready to go riya? We've gotta find the others. "

"Yea hold on mom, let's exchange numbers " we handed eachothers phones I put my contact. Under .Patience

Hers in my phone was. Riya Boo

"I'll facetime you when I get home " she said and waved

"Okay" as I waved back. After I was done getting my nails done I went to the sister and my mom was just waddling out with her shoes in her hand.

"Do you have your permit on you? " she asked

"Yea" I said

"Well you have to drive home I don't want to mess my Mani pedi " she said and we both laughed.

When we arrived home it was only about 9:00 pm I went upstairs and hung up everything I just bought and flopped on my bed. I turned on my radio and got on twitter

@PatienceCorrect: Detroit Isn't That Bad I Guess.

Then I got a Facetime from Mariya.

"What's Up" I said

"What you doing?" Said riya

"Chilling on twitter"

"Me too what's your twitter name?" she said

"PatienceCorrect"

"I followed follow me back"

"I did " I said laughing

We laughed together

"Riya I'll call you back I'm about to shower"

"Alright you better " she giggled

"Alright " I giggled.
