Introducing Crystal, the girl who wished to be a Shadowhunter

It was raining, like raining really hard.

And as usual I'm sitting on my bed with my face buried on the third book of the Mortal Instrument series. Seriously, I love this story and how I wished I could be a Shadowhunter and slay demons and make friends with the vampires, fairies, warlocks and werewolves. I could be Jace's partner and together will save the world from evil and dark forces.

That would be very cool.

But who am I kidding? My real world was far from cool. That's why I love to read. Reading takes you to places that were much cooler than yours will ever be. I could imagine myself with different characters and I could be the person I wanted to be. It helps you forget your burdens for a while and it seems time stops when you are reading.

I closed the book after I finished reading the last chapter and placed it on the table beside my bed. I closed my eyes and listened to the sound of raindrops outside as they touched everything on their way. I love rain. I love the sound of it, the feeling of it on my skin and the shiver I get after. I don't know but I love cold weather. And that includes winter season.

By the way, my name is Crystal Lace Rosewood. I'm already 23 years old and living in the mansion my parents had built. Alone. Well not literally alone, we have a lot of maids and drivers, but living in here with your parents and your one and only sister constantly on flights for business trips surely makes you feel alone. We had this empire of hotels and resorts across the world in which I haven't had the slightest idea how many since I didn't bother myself asking. I'm studying medicine in one of the prestigious medical school in town, or possibly in the whole world. You might think why I'm studying medicine when my parents were both businessmen? To be honest, I didn't want to be part of their hotel empire although I'm a hotel heiress and there is a 100 percent chance that I'm going to manage some of the hotels somehow. I didn't want to be a doctor either. Sure, I'm curious of how the brain works or how red blood cells and white blood cells were produce and I have high respect for medical doctors who save thousands of lives in a day, but it isn't just my thing. My mother, somehow finally agreed for me to go to a med school instead of pursuing business, as long as I stay myself away from the thought of becoming a music teacher or musician. She said that it is so much better for me to become a doctor than becoming a lowly, musical teacher who couldn't even pay her rental bills. Yes, my mother was like that. She thought of everyone who were outside of her so called "circle of friends" were gold - diggers and she treated them like slaves. No wonder my mother and I didn't go along well together.

I sighed and let myself be drowned in the sea of pillows, waiting for sleep to knock and bring me to my land of dreams. I already finished preparing presentations and studying for exams. I'm done with my externship at the hospitals and volunteering myself at whatever medical mission there is. Don't get me wrong, I am not a nerd or a genius or even a die - hard "I love school" person, it's just that, I don't have anything else to do. As you already guessed, I'm a pretty boring person who has a very active imagination but at least I'm spending my time for a good cause.
