January 24th 2015, Saturday
Victoria wakes up.
First thing she does is to search for her phone, which most of us know, takes some time to find it, but in Victoria's case it wasn't so hard.
She is checking her notifications to see any new messages from her best friend that lives next door in the apartment building but nothing. She decides to get up, brush her teeth and go check on her best friend, Anna.
She enters her apartment like most best friends, no knocking, just straight opening the door and going in, to find Anna still sleeping half in the bed and half on the ground, Victoria remembers they had a rough night drinking but that's everything she remembers, doesn't remember how she got in her bed or who cleaned up the place.
Victoria tries to wake up Anna, and after many tries she finally wakes up, Anna is clueless about what happened but she rushes to her phone to check on her social media, she is addicted to Starmous, Anna's profile is nothing more than just random posts trying to be funny and trying hard to become known on the platform, Victoria does not even use it but she kinda understands Anna's desperation, everybody is using it, everybody is trying to become big on the platform, and everybody is aiming to get the special badge on their profile as a certified account, but still no one has it, you have to meet a certain criteria to gain it, nobody knows what you need to have or what you need to do but they know one thing, that they must get it, on a side note, you can also grow an income from it.
Talking about incomes, Victoria and Anna are unemployed, they just finished high school, they don't know if they should continue studying or get a job, but they could make a living if they were to become celebrities on the platform which was nowhere near happening anytime soon in the next 1 year at least, it was a chance in 10 million considering that many people use the platform.
