My name is Stephanie. I am 27 years old, and I have had depression since high school. The most important thing you need to know about me is that my favorite band is Fun. They saved my life time and time again, and still do. They never cease to amaze me. The first time I went to their concert was when they still had only released Aim and Ignite. It was about 4 years ago, and it was the best night of my life. I will never forget when Nate made eye contact with me. I’m sure he doesn’t remember it, but I do.
I live in a 1 bedroom apartment by myself. I have one bathroom, a kitchen, a living room, a bedroom, and a small porch. I sat down on the couch and let my head fall back. I was so exhausted from my job, at a preschool in Boston. Along with the band Fun., children are my life. I don’t have any of my own yet, but I absolutely love them. I got up and went into the bathroom to wash off my makeup. I looked up and sighed at the look of myself without makeup. I have dark brown hair, and blue eyes that are slightly green. My hair is a little longer than shoulder length and naturally curly, but I tend to either straighten it, or put it up. I have freckles on my cheeks, and a small birthmark above my right eyebrow that I liked for some reason. I changed into a pair of shorts and kept my Fun. shirt on, and went to bed.
The next morning my best friend Christine came over without notice.
"Happy Birthday!" she screamed as she ran in. Holy shit. It’s my birthday! I forgot…
"Oh my god. I totally forgot!" I was so embarrassed about forgetting my own birthday.
"Well I didn’t," she said with a huge smile on her face. She tackle hugged me and then I noticed that she had a bag in her hand.
"Oh no! Please tell me that’s not a birthday gift!" Her grin turned into an evil grin, and she giggled.
"Well duh!" She handed me the gift, put the cake she made in the fridge, and ran into the living room. She patted on the chair, gesturing me to sit next to her and open my gift. I sat down criss-cross on the couch and turned off the tv. I first pulled out my card. Like every year, she bought me a sappy card that made me cry. Then I dove right in to the gift, tearing out the tissue paper and pulling out a yellow teddy bear that said happy birthday.
"Aw! This is so cute! And it’s my favorite color!!"
"Look closer," she said giggling. The teddy bear was holding a small box. I opened it to find something I didn’t expect at all… Fun Tickets! I screamed and squealed in excitement!
"Christine, oh my god! I can’t believe you got these! Thank you so much!" I jumped onto her, hugging her as tight as I could.
"Notice that there are TWO tickets? I’m going with you!" I was so excited I couldn’t even respond to her.
This is going to be so much Fun.! (haha get it)
