16 years, 5840 days, 8,409,600 minutes, 504,576,000 seconds. That's the amount of time that i've spent here. New York to be exact. The "Greatest City Of The World". I have to disagree with that belief, because all I see is hardships. People coming here expecting a dream life but in reality struggling to live in this city. No money, No worth. Even in the talent portion. " if you make it in NY you can make it anywhere". Which is something I actually agree with. But the fact is, Barely anyone makes it. You could be Whitney Houston type talented, but it means nothing if you don't fit the standards, a certain look per-say. Usually that Means paper thin, A perfect (probably plastic filled face). Which personally isn't perfect in my opinion, just fake, made up. What's funnier is just how these beauty standards change so frequently. You can change yourself permanently, and only be socially perfect for a year. Then your before pictures would be considered perfect. So no, it isn't the greatest city in the world, it's the fakest. The prettiest. But not Great. Not perfect. Not even close.
Most people would call me a cynic. Which I also struggle to disagree with. I mean I want to deny it but facts are facts. I don't believe in true love. I don't believe that a man can make me feel that. I don't believe in love at first sight either. My parents used to be in love. And maybe then you could say I believed in it. But how do you fall out of love? If it's true love, how could it go away? I don't think it does, because I don't think it even exists in the first place. I'm Amelia Johnson. I am 16 years old. Born and raised in NYC. A child to divorced parents and a sister to an older and younger brother and a non believer in "True Love".
This might just be my start to a stereotypical love story, because why not.....
