          Do you ever see something you shouldn't have seen? Well I do this all the time. Yet sometimes it might hurt ,but it is for my own good....I guess. Oh yeah! Hey! I'm Tally the mistake of a girl. And this is my story, of my life, of all my mistakes. I guess now I should explain what had happened. Well you see a couple years ago I was a freshman in High school. A new high school to be exact. A new town too. My parents had recently gotten a divorce and my parents decided custody wouldn't matter because my dad wanted nothing to do with us anymore. He had a new life. A new family. A new wife( who I hate) and a brand new house. After a month or so after the divorce was final my mom said "I can't live in this house anymore. I hate this house and all it stands for." Which is when she got a call 2 weeks later that said she was getting a transfer...for a new job. SHOCKER! Which means My mom, my little brother and I all had to move...to  Los Angeles, California. All the way on the other side of the country. Why couldn't I just stay in Manhattan ,with my Geegee (My grandma)? Okay. So let's just say we moved blah blah blah blah. We can also say my little brother, Terrance, is Mom's favorite child. When we got the new house my brother got the biggest room, besides the master bedroom, and got a stupid old room that was smaller than the one I used to have in our old apartment. Now right now I'm pretty sure you are all like "Omg who cares your brother will be there longer, When do your mistakes happen you seem normal now," that's the thing I may seem normal ,but I'm not. 

         "Let's just start a new thing going," my mom said. Well everyone else was thrilled about the move ,but me. So when we got settled in my mom had this "great idea" of lets go eat out to dinner. We went to this restaurant called " Water Grill." This place was a fancy seafood place with fancy waiters and fancy waters and fancy everything. Of course there was a dish boy named Josh, you'll hear about him later, that was just trying to make some money for time being. Our waiter comes and takes our order for the night and gets our food and just as were about to leave that dish boy I mentioned earlier was cleaning up our table. I had forgot my purse at the table and went back to get i bumped his dirty dish bucket full of water and dirty dishes and it fell all over me. Josh helped me up and I was so embarrassed. I was soaked and smelled like rotting seafood the whole way home. I ran upstairs to my stupid room, halfway unpacked and dirty. I took off the shirt and pants I was wearing and decided to take a hot shower. I get in the bathroom and undress and turn on the water. "EEEEKKKK'' my scream echos through the house. The water was freezing and it wasn't getting hot. "TEEERRRAANNCCEE," I yelled. My stupid little brother used up all of the hot water and so I couldn't take a hot shower. I got out and dried off and slipped on my Soffe shorts and an old t-shirt of mine. They smelled like home and that's exactly where I wanted to be. I laid on my bed and watched the time fly slowly drifting off into a dream.
