Hey, you look lost, are you new here? What’s your name?
Barron Trump, you said? Son of Donald Trump, you said? Who’s that? Is he a big deal or something? Well anyway, nice to meet you too!
How do you like NYU so far?
You like it? Neato. I used to like it here, too.
Oh, who are those people back there? They’re the jocks, they pretty much run this school.
The kids over there? Those are the Tisch kids, they’re all just a bunch of theater dorks, Hamil-can you shut up, amirite?
You see them, over there? Those are your fellow Sternies. Most people just call them the nerds.
And those guys are the popular kids. They all met through their promoters’ influencer dinners.
What’s that? Who am I? I’m what you call an outsider. I don’t have many friends, but everyone seems to know who I am.
Yeah I kinda don’t fit in, and I don’t really care to. I mean, what’s it all for? I’m never going to please everyone, just ask my stepmom… so you know, I figure why even bother?
I guess you could say I’m not like other girls, I like poetry, staying in, good ol’ mary jane as the kids say.
Oh you never caught my name? I’m Ella. Ella Emhoff.
