Life. How could anyone get through it? With all the twists and turns, and the hardships. Dad says that's just the way life is, but I beg to differ. It's just they way life is for me. When you are Alexandria Valentine the so - called freak, it's hard to make friends and have a social life. Everyone bullies you and hates you just because you are different. I lay in bed as I thought these thoughts, cursing my life. I didn't want to get up for school because like most days, I will be picked on by the snobby cheerleaders and bullied by the jerky jocks. But tomorrow, tomorrow this would all change because tomorrow is the day I am turning 18 years oId. Tomorrow is the day I will change how people view me. Suddenly, out of the blue, my twin sister just barges into my room and threw open the blinds. I hissed as the burningly bright sun flashed in my eyes. "Rise and shine, it's a beautiful day and you need to get out of bed. Honestly the only thing you ever do these are lie in bed," my sister sang cheerfully. I wonder how she is always cheerful in the morning, doesn't she need sleep or something? After a few moments when I didn't get up, she went to the side of my bed and ripped off the covers. "Get up!" she ordered losing patience. When she is like this she won't stop bothering you until you do as she says. So I slowly got out of bed groaning. 

When I had got out of bed and sat on the edge of it again, half asleep. I was still sitting on my bed, when she mysteriously pulled out a whistle and blew into it hard. It made a loud screeching noise, that made me jump off the bed with alarming speed and went into a self - defence position ready to attack. "Whoa, hold on there tiger, you seriously can't get up in the morning, but you can attack someone. You are one violent person," she said. I just shrugged. "Anyway," she continued throwing my towel to me. "It's 8:30 and we have to be at school by 9:00. I put your clothes for today on top of your dresser. Please don't change anything because I made sure your outfit didn't clash with mine." But I barely heard her as I rushed into the bathroom. Dammit, I am going to be late for school and I am supposed to meet Zayn at the basketball courts at 8:50. As I quickly drenched my self in ice cold water to wake me up all I could think was, shit, Shit , SHIT!
