Exercise 3 Descriptive writing part 2

The girl with dark hair stands on the curb on the Vaughn Eames parking lot waiting for a ride. Her hair gently blows in the winds while she stands stoically staring down the row of parked cars. She is wearing a jean vest with tight black leggings and bright yellow high top vans shoes that are so bright they seem out of place in the dirty parking lot.
She thinks to her self
"what am I doing here? I sit and wait for a ride for 30 minutes ride in a car for another 45 after sitting in class for almost 9 hour... I should listen to my aunt and go to hair dressing school."
A group of frat boys walks pass and they all smile at her.
She just glares at them and turns her head in the other direction.
As cars pass and accelerate they leave a cloud of smoke that engulfs her and makes her eyes water.
As she rubs her eyes and turns her back alway and curses
"Asshole!"
To her a girl from a small beach town this parking lot is almost worse then the dump. She holds he books closly to her chest and closes her eyes.
A car honks and she opens her eyes. A figure is waving for her to get into the car. she quickly bolts to the car and jumps in. The car speeds off into the parking lot with the dark hair girl looking out the window at the passing parked cars.

Descriptive Writing Exercise


One-
There is a small hum in the air from the building generators, construction, and constant movement of cars. Vaughn Eames parking lot at Kean is defiantly a area with a lot of activity but not much interaction. Cracked asphalt and uneven sidewalk direct students to class as if they were a maze. People  gathering their things from their cars or throwing everything in the back seat before speeding off campus.
Two-
A girl with dark hair waits at the corner for a ride home. She holds her books across her chest and her hips sway back and forth slowly to a song only she can her. A group of frat brothers are walking slowly and laughing together
"what time is the meeting tonight"
A girl walk to her car from class and is talking to someone on the phone about how much work she needs to do.
"o my god I have 4 papers that are due this week I dont know what I am gunna do"
"Probaly lock myself in my room for about 72 hours straight"
Three-
In the background you can hear the buzz of the construction going on across the parking lot. It sounds like being in side of a old factory or maybe some where in the steel industry. Each car that goes by and revs up their engine and each has its own unique sound. Some are loud and obnoxious and rattle and shake while others sputter and some like they could conk out at any moment. Some make no sounds at all others sound like a 10 year old lawn mower.
Four-
The cars pass the entrance and then file into the rows of cars looking for spots. As the car go furthers aways they remind me of those National Geographic videos you see of hippos on the waters of Africa. from afar you can only see the tops of the cars sticking up like a hippos back as it moves thru the water.
Five-
The scent of the parking lot is very diverse smell mix with dirt, asphalt, dirty river water, and car exhaust. All combined make a cocktail that stuffs the nose and will have you covering your face with fear of contracting a disease from walking from the white clowns of smoke that are a result of god knows what.
