I am not very interesting, in fact I am possibly the most humdrum teenage girl in the world.

I like to describe myself in 3 words,

Awkward

Unlucky

And most importantly I am an introvert.

I have a great deal of friends but I've never had a best friend, you know the kind of friend that you can talk about everything and know everything about. I am and will always be "that friend" that no one really cares about, sure they enjoy my company but that's essentially it. At least I have my mom, she is practically my best friend.

I used to have a best friend in middle school, I remember how much I loved being her friend. Unlike me she was social, outgoing and loved talking to the other kids at school. Unfortunately she and her family moved to Norway and after that I was pretty much on my own.

I wonder how my life would have been if she hadn't had moved away.

So middle school wasn't exactly a blast, however high school wasn't any better. To be honest high school was pretty much the worst 4 years of my life.

I should explain.

You see, we live in a society where everyone is supposed to look and act in a certain way. That was essentially the polar opposite to me, I was overweight, weird and my sense of fashion was dreadful to say the least. It is safe to say that I got bullied, a lot.

After high school I lost a lot of weight, in fact I lost almost 100 pounds. However that is the only out of the ordinary thing about me. I'm just "the girl who lost all that weight."

Right now I'm in my second year of college and things have actually gotten a lot better since high school. I have a few friends, my roommate is very nice and I have a stable job.

I work as a waitress in a big restaurant, last month I got promoted and I am now the shift manager which is amazing. The promotion allowed me to buy my first car and I couldn't be more stoked about it.

So now that you know everything about me we can...

I haven't even told you my name yet, my name is Avery. Avery Haden
