UPDATE: It's been one year and two weeks since my mum left me, I've been at Birmingham orphanage for a year now and I've got pretty close to the leader's daughter, Louise who is just 5 years older than me and I can trust her with anything. I've also discovered YouTube and it helps a lot, it makes me feel normal. It's weird to think that because I'm 12, I'm just at the right age for adoption, not too young but not too old.

7:45am:
Ugh, why can I never sleep properly on Sunday? I've had three hours sleep and lights out was at 10pm, It's always like this, Louise in the bunk below me snoring, she's been asleep since 9pm because she went out for the day with her friends yesterday, she's so lucky, she's my only friend I have, except my internet friends and idols who feel like my friends, I'd do anything to meet them but I'm stuck here, anyway, enough daydreaming. I groan, pull back my covers and climb down the stairs, seen as it's not even 8am yet, the bathroom will be empty so I can get my shower, there's a few couples coming today looking to adopt so I suppose I'd best make an effort. I use my banana shampoo and conditioner, strawberry shower gel to wash and once I've finished showering it's 8:26am, 30 mins in the shower, Kaylee will kill me if she finds out. I quietly go back into my room, blow dry my hair and do my basic make-up routine whilst I think about how to do my hair and what to wear, I press play on my playlist (that consists on Lucy Spraggan, Nikki Phillippi & Emma Blackery). I decided to do my staple half up, half down hair style and curl the bottom half loosely, I'm wearing my favourite Lucy Spraggan tour shirt with my favourite black jeans and white converse high tops, I'm happy with how I look so I feel more confident to meet the families. 9:14am I go down and help myself to a bowl of lucky charms, Kaylee is already waiting downstairs as she's sorting out paperwork for today, I hope at least one couple maybe consider adopting me because even though I love Louise, I want to get out of here, I need real friends who are my age. I just hope it goes as well as I am imagining it to...
