Okay I'm not really good in literature or essay writing and stuff like that, this is the first time I'm trying to write a story about my life, so here it goes. (It's going to be really boring:3! I'm warning you) hahaha okay enough, let me start.
Hi! My name is Lalrinawmi, (it's difficult to pronounce I know that) I go by the nickname Tetei. I was born on 6th august,1998 in a beautiful and loving family. I really loved my parents, especially my mom, I was really close to her. My parents divorced when I was young and I never knew it, now as I've become a teenager, I started understanding all the stuff I didn't understand when I was a really small kid. I don't know why my mom and dad got divorced because I never asked my family about it neither was I interested in asking them. I have 2 siblings elder than me. I really love my 2 elder sisters I don't know why. I was born in Mizoram, the capital of Aizawl in the north east. Even though being an Indian, we the north east people are always being called or thought of as Chinese, only because we do not understand the national language or because of the way we look! Yes we have chinky eyes :3. I studied my nursery to 2nd grade in Mizoram.
My mom died when we were on a Christmas vacation to Mumbai in 2006, on the 22nd morning of December. So basically it was like I never had the experience of having a real mother. My aunt (my moms elder sister) adopted me and my sister (Kimi) and we started staying with her in Mumbai from 2006 and I started going back to school while my elder sister was kept in the hostel in panchgani.
I was not really close to my father because he rarely comes home or else he comes home drunk and I used to feel scared of him. My elder sister was close to my father than that to my mother. After my mothers death, my father married another women in Mizoram. I remember meeting him with his wife when we came home for a short vacation in Mizoram. My aunt didn't wanted me and my sister to be close to my dad after my moms death. 2 years later in 2008 my father died. We got a call from my grand mom saying he died and I didn't really care about it. But now I really miss my mom and dad, so people I request you to always love your parents no matter what happens because god may need them back one day, I know how it feels to be without a real mom and dad.
I had a tough time during my childhood, being with an aunt who isn't married and it was really difficult for her to take care of us as she didn't have any child either. At first she used to get angry for small stuff but now after living with her for 9 years, I've started experiencing having a second mother, even though she isn't my real mom I look at her and thank god for everything he has given me.
In the year 2007 I started going to St. Joseph High School. I wasn't that fluent in English and Hindi so my aunt kept a tutor for me. Everything was new to me when I started going to this school, new friends, new life, new home, new people everywhere. I was a really shy girl when I was young but now I'm not really that shy as I used to be. My first 3rd grade class teacher was my first new best friend. She taught me everything, introduced me to everybody and that's how I started making friends. Oh how I wish I could go back to 3rd grade and enjoy my life to the fullest. Many people from the school thought I was from China and they used to tease me but I really never cared anyway. I left St. Joseph school because of my class teacher in the 6th grade as she used to hit and punish students a lot, many people used to address her as the meanest teacher in the school. So I got scared and I used to bunk school so my tutor told my aunt to shift me to another school.
