Hi , my name is Anna. I'm just a unnoticed school girl who has been through hell. I'm not popular, I live in a orphanage and I get bullied. I bet it's not your cup of tea but I have to live with it.

Life has been tough since my mother mysteriously went missing. The police never found her body so they assumed that she had been mysteriously murdered. I still believe she is out there somewhere, not very far away. My father passed away when I was 5 , I don't remember much of him but I do vaguely remember his smile that used to brighten up my day.

But now my parents have gone, I'm lonely and unwanted.

The orphanage I live in we call it a mad house. New children come in every day, crying and weeping and calling for their parents. I see it non stop like a movie that is playing in my head. I wish it would stop. Our carer at the mad house is mean and cruel, she'll lock you up in the cold, gloomy cellar if you do something wrong. Even the tiniest possible mistake. The little children are scared to death of her, they see her as a wicked witch. Sometimes, just sometimes ... I wish I was normal.
