are everything...
Her eyes flickered to the calm ocean and then back to her iPod. Piece of shit, she thought with frustration. She shoved it with irritance into the small denim bag which was slung tightly across her delicate figure. Her pearly teeth caught the sunlight as she bit at her soft rose lips. She stood on the balcony, facing out onto the golden desert and shimmering waves. She wore ripped jeans, a white vest top and new trainers; their ends glittered beneath the baggy trousers. A bright green belt was flashed as she hastily crossed her arms. What is it with California? Always waking up fucking late. She was annoyed that the beach was almost empty, (only a few families and a golden labrador occupied the vast sand), and the fact that her ex had been texting her all night on her mobile; (she had called him back with 'fuck off' and he hadn't replied yet). She saw that the Blue Orange didn't actually open until around 10am-2 hours yet.
She sighed as seagulls screamed and squawked above her, as if threatening to bomb-dive into her if she didn't leave. She had only arrived the day before, searching for a new challenge for her new hobby; Surfing. Her brother was a top international champion, but that wasn't what had inspired her, (surprising enough). She had been inspired by a boy called Pierre, who she'd been pretty fond of at the time. He had taught her, but when he left her a few months later, she was deeply depressed and decided to use her new skills to start Surfing, and move to a new location to get him off her mind. However, it had been hard. It's only the arrival, give it time yet. She had told herself soothingly last night. She watched the waves crashing into the rocks nearby, and saw herself gliding into the ocean... There was a 'splat' close beside her, and she looked at the steel railing of the balcony. Just centimetres from her, there was a large dripping of bird shit, the milky surface shimmering at her; the birds meant it as a warning, she decided. Dirty fucking birds.
