*Claire's POV *
Ughh. The plane was about to land and for me , this was the worst part. Actually no. The jet lag's the worst part of this whole journey. I knew it was going to suck and I already had to start school this Monday. It's Saturday today. To get my mind off things, I decided to plan out my whole time living here. I've moved 3 times this year. Yup. This YEAR. The perks of being in a military family. I started my year off in Ireland, which was awesome because I am a total directioner, and I lived there for 4 months. So, in April, I moved to Japan, which was pretty cool too, and I lived there till October. Now I'm here. In Sydney, Australia. Once again the new girl. The stupid, stereotypical American. A "valley girl" as some liked to call me. God I hated it. Being the different one, I mean. Even if I was still living in America, I would be different because I'm not the skinniest person. I used to get bullied for it and I learned to hate myself. I used to dread going to the hospital, and I still do, because I just didn't want to hear the doctor telling my parents that I'm overweight and that I need to stop eating this and start doing that. It made me feel bad about myself. So, I started to starve myself, which wasn't a very good idea because I had to go to the hospital and take medicines and stuff like that. Then, I turned to self harm, which led to going to special hospitals to help me, but they didn't help at all. They told me they knew exactly what I was going through, but no... they didn't. But then I got better. I started losing weight the right way, but it IS a very slow process. I still don't love myself they way I should , but I don't hate myself as much as I used to. Right now I'm not super fat but I'm not even the smallest bit skinny. I guess all I'm trying to say is that I'm slowly feeling better about myself. I snapped out of my thoughts when I heard my mom talking to me. "Claire Elisabeth Hunt, are you listening to me?"
"Wha- oh, um... what was that mom?"
" I said," my mom said impatiently," it's time to get up. Help us with the bags! Hurry! Me and your father are in people's way."
"Right.Um... yea."I unbuckled and reached up to help my mom and dad get the carry on from the compartment at the top of the plane. My mom was right, people were very impatient and kept telling us to hurry up. I couldn't blame them. It WAS 3 in the morning and I wanted to go to the hotel, in which we will stay in until they assign us a house and until we get our stuff from the movers, and go right to sleep, just like them. --------------------------------------------------- When we finished getting the bags, I hurried my 14, 10, and 8 year old sisters out while I carried Olivia, my 2 year old sister. Yup. 5 girls and only girls. And guess what. My mom was having another one and she's 6 months along. I don't even know if she was safe to fly, but it didn't seem like the people at the airport really cared. Pretty soon I'll be having yet another sister. Me being the oldest at 16, meant that I would be the one caring for the baby as well as my other 4 sisters although Lauren, who is 14, can care for herself. When we got out of the plane, the first thing I saw was Starbucks. Starbucks. My favorite! I HAD to go get something, even if it was 3 in the morning. Why would they be open this late? I don't know and I don't care I just need a Starbucks drink!
