Undecided (postponed)

Chapter 1

  .....And everything went black.

     My name is Jennifer.  I am pretty much your average teen.  I go to Nav High (who knows why they named it that) as a sophomore.  I guess I am a bit young for my grade as my birthday is in the late summer, July 24 to be exact.  My favorite subjects are science (partly due to my amazing teacher Mrs. Hendester) and english.  My least favorites are art (I'm just not an artistic person) and history (who cares about the past? 

     My hobby is singing.  Everyone says I have an amazing voice, and I know that it is pretty good, but I mostly sing just becasue I enjoy it.  I play a little bit soccer (or 'futbol for all you non-soccer saying people out there) on a recreational league every Wednesday and Friday for 2 hours, and every other weekend (or so) we play against other recreational teams.  Our team is decent.  Well, atleast decent compared to the other recreational teams.  We win about 2 out of 3 of our matches, sometimes less.  I play on offense usually, my coach Mr. Swarthfield (he has the word field in his name and he's a soccer coach, which I think is pretty cool) switches us around alot so I really don't play in just one position.  Other than that I don't really do sports.  It's not that I don't like sports, I just don't see a need to do tons and tons of athletic activity, besides, I don't see myself getting to far in any sport.  So I stick to my singing and scholar stuff.

     I have one sister, who is way older than me.  She already graduated college and got married.    She wanted to go to Stanford, but her hopes (and grade) fell a little low and she ended up going to the University of Illinois.  She wasn't over ecstatic about going there, but she met Mike (her husband) in one of her classes, so everything turned out fine.  To me, Mike is pretty alright, I guess, nothing special, but I guess she loves him.  Mike works somewhere at some bank, and Grace (that's my sister) is struggling to keep her job (which I think is as a recptionist unless she got promoted or demoted) at some wierd toy company.  I don't see my sister often, but when we used to live in the same house we did not get along very well.  We have quite a few of the same interests, and we both love each other alot, so I have never been too sure on why we fought so much. 

     Okay, so by now you are probably wondering, "uhh, what IS she going on about, did she say something about going to college?", or " Gah! get on with it already! Why is there darkness!!"  So, fine, I'll get on with it, but just to let you know, the story is sorta kinda, maybe, maybe not... long.

This is the first thing I have ever written besides something for school.  Please leave any comments, opinions or ideas, for I would love to have feedback. :)  I know the first few chapters are boring, but I will be putting action in soon!
