Ashley's example -
At home:
Ashley was sitting alone at her desk. She had pulled back her chestnut brown hair into a loose ponytail, and her brown-purple splotched glasses that framed her brown eyes fell down her nose from staring at a computer screen. Two dogs ran into her room after her first class had finished. One had nudged her hand and left the room, while the other, a young pup, jumped on the bed, sprawling herself out.
At school:
On the weekends, Ashley hid among the grey covers on top of her dorm bed at the comfortable temperature set in the 60s. Sometimes she lost herself in what was on TV, most likely a Harry Potter movie marathon, allowing her mind to draw a blank before falling into long naps. If it was a Sunday, she was in the commons building, doing the laundry. She’d drag her hamper filled to the top — surprising how a week’s worth of clothes for one person could take up so much room — into the laundry room and glare across the room. Usually, over half of the wash machines were occupied and the other half was out of order. She’d wait until someone came along and removed their clothes, complaining to herself about how some people let their laundry sit in the machines past their end time, or turned the room into small hills with heaps of clothes. After she shoved her clothes into a machine and took a seat in the lounge area, pulled her phone from her pocket, and messaged a friend for the umpteenth time on one concern. Ashley: It’s such a mess in the laundry room. Gives me anxiety. Friend: That’s why I moved into an apartment. Ashley: How can someone forget about their clothes? I only brought a limited amount down here. Ashley had known this friend since her first semester at the university, in the spring of 2022. January 2023 would mark their one-year friendship. She arrived in January 2022 after completing four years too long in community college and was ready to get her Bachelor's in English with Creative Writing. Her mother told her that coming in the middle of the school year meant people would have already formed friendships, and it might take a while for her to find new friends. It was a week or two in the new semester before classroom acquaintances became friends, but thanks to the small size of the Creative Writing program, she found herself a group of friends in the Writers Workshop course.
