Blah. My first thought as I entered UCLA. The energy around me was spooky. It was not only that but weird. I wanted to run out but as I turned around and looked at my moms face alot went through my mind. I ditched my boyfriend and friends for this, and most importantly I've wanted this my entire life. I couldn't just back down because I was scared for once. So I went for it.

Big mistake.

You see, I wish I could have been more of a chicken shit, per se. But if you were there to see my moms facial expression full of pride, you wouldn't have done anything different. The building is amazing and maybe everything just overwhelmed her as much as it did to me. It was that moment where it hit me. It was actually going to happen now. Everything I always wanted was here but  yes perhaps the first day or lets say month wasn't easy but later I began to love it. Truly love it.

Big mistake.

I'm very smart, and no I'm not bragging about it. I am. So I got all my studies done quickly with the help of my mom of course. We worked our asses off that by the age of 22 I was placed working in an underground facility.

Big mistake.

Yes at first it was amazing and honestly it still is. I felt special because everything that happens underground is top secret. I should have known it was dangerous eventually but it never crossed my mind. I was promoted and they needed me since I was the most interested. I ignored all the wrong possibilites.

Big mistake.

What I should have done was think about it instead of accepting right away. My mom didn't even think of anything going wrong and she's the one who was more concern about me then anyone. Why would there be anything wrong with working with the professionals and becoming one myself? Nothing. The opportunity was great and given to me. I was going to take it. Not even Einsten would have believed a tragic would have happened. And it didn't, not until 3 years later when things became strange. My idiot self ignored that too.

Big mistake.

But it didn't seem like a big deal at the time. All we did in that facility was study the brain, do experiments and make medicine. It was all sciene. We tested on animals and plants, its cruel to admit. I traveled to so many places, it was a dream come true. Its better than what I dreamed off. Traveling to Asia, Europe, UK, etc was a journey. Thirty of us were working on an important mission. Cancer. We were send off to Russia to find answers. Long story short we didn't find much and the project was moved to the higher class than us. 

I was close from finding the cure for cancer, or so I thought. I'll lie if I said I was okay from being removed from the project. I was determined to find the damn cure and one mistake took all of us off. It wasn't easy but I understood later. It was only practice. All thirty of us were assigned to a new project. The one thing that lead me to where I am now, what began everything, and what I always wondered about.
