Healthy is...anything but me.

You know how in the movies, the beautiful brunette\ blonde is all happy and ladida and she meets a guy and they fall in love and all that jazz?

Yeah?

Cool.

Now imagine a normal teenage girl sitting. She has acne, braces, oily straight hair, and freckles. She's nice enough, gets average grades, and is crushing on a guy named um.. I don't know.

Luke?

Yeah. That girl is normal.

She'll grow up and maybe marry Luke, have a lame office job or something, have two twins, a boy and a girl.

Then she dies.

And then the cycle repeats for the family.

But with me it's a totally different story.

If I was watching that movie, I'd be trying sooo damn hard to block out those goddamned annoying voices that won't shut up!

Seriously, My life sucks.

I can't do normal things like.. talk to my mom without looking over her shoulder to watch a penguin's egg to hatch and climb up the staircase.

Then it vanishes.

And I sit there.

Wondering where it went.

So I ask my mom and she'll give me a lame response like... "To Narnia? Honey, I don't know. You have a wild imagination."

Or a mental illness...

Maybe my mom forgets.

Maybe she tries to forget.

To forget she has a lame excuse for a daughter as a child.

Because I'm not normal.

Or healthy.
