Every day I wake up I remind myself how much I want to change everything in my life. Here I am - a sixteen year old girl, living an ordinary life with her ordinary parents, going to an ordinary school with ordinary friends. I don't know how many times I can use the word 'ordinary' but it describes my life. Do you have the feeling that you don't get to choose how to live your life and somebody else already made that choice for you? If you do, then you can understand how something or someone can change everything forever.
This morning my mother woke me up for school. I was lying for few more minutes and when I got up I promised myself to never stay up so late even if I just can't sleep. I put on a shirt and jeans, then I brushed my hair and went downstairs for breakfast with the family. We are four people - my mother Sarah, my father Peter, my older brother Logan and me, Katherine. I love them, I really do. But sometimes I wish they understood me. When I ate, my father drove me and Logan to school. My brother can drive because he is eighteen and he has his own car but he loves listening to dad's rock collection and sing. I enjoy those moments, because I know that someday they will just stop happening. I don't like that my so called 'friends' don't listen to rock music and don't do anything like that. Well, I am not about to complain again.
I walked inside the building. It was the same ( I was really hoping for something new that would make me like the place even a little ) . While I was walking to my classroom, Caroline hugged me from behind. Yes, she thinks of me like a best friend but I cannot even call her a friend. I mean, we don't have anything in common. She likes to date a lot, to have many friends and to be popular. She doesn't know my favourite band ( I mean, The Pretty Reckless are quite popular for people with good taste ), she doesn't know that I am shy and I don't like hanging with her popular buddies and she doesn't even know my last name ( it's Jones if you are curious). Now you must think that I am just a mean girl that hates everyone. Well, I am not but I don't want to make Caroline sad ( yes, I am nice ) so I try to be her friend and help her when she has a problem even if she doesn't care when I need help. Anyway, this is the day when my life began for real.
