Hi my name is Kristina. I'm 16 years old. I have light-brown hair and blue eyes. All of my friends call me Wendy.

I'm guessing you want to know why, right? Right. Well okay then, when I was in the 6th grade I took drama class as my elective. In that drama class we did a sketch with Peter Pan and Wendy. And I ended up being cast as Wendy.

And, yeah...,that's why they call me Wendy. It's also kinda ironic that my favorite song is Somewhere In Neverland by All Time Low. Well anyways I'm moving. And not just out of town, or out of state: out of the country.

You see I live in Tennessee, USA. So this is a very long way from home. This all started in August about a week before my birthday.

*****FLASHBACK*****
(One week before birthday)

"Mom," I yelled across the house. "What Kristina," she called back at me. "Am I going to have a birthday party this year?" I truly didn't know because the past couple of years I haven't been able to. (Family stuff caused that)

"No, because you're going to that concert with Delilah, aren't you?" "Ya, but not with Del, I'm going with Troi. Thanks for telling me."

Did I mention that this concert is a One Direction and 5 Seconds Of Summer concert. I am so super excited for it.

My mom then interrupted my fan-girling session. "Hey Kristina," my mom yelled. "Yeah mom," I yelled back.

"How would you feel about moving to Ireland or Australia?"she asked. I thought she was joking.

"Um. I would like Australia more but both are great countries. Why?" "Because I was just promoted," she explained," and my boss gave me a choice of two places."

She said all of this like it wasn't a big deal. While once she said moving I sprinted down the stairs."OH MY GOSH, REALLY MOM!!!"

This was music to my ears. I asked my mom when we were leaving. She said right after my concert. I asked her about school she said that I would have to do homeschooling for one year before I start with the other kids.

That means school no summer break and then school again. But I'm willing to do it. So I will be doing homeschooling over the Australian summer while my friends are at school.

Then I get to go to regular school and be somewhat normal. I will have to learn what I might have missed and what I need to know to go into the next grade.

****END OF FLASHBACK****

So that's how that went. And tomorrow is my birthday. My mom decided that i could have a small party with just my friends so that i can say goodbye.
So today my friend Savannah and I got to go "stalking".

We ended up meeting Matthew Espinosia. He hugged me, gave me a kiss on the cheek for a photo, and he signed my cell phone case.

It said 'Happy birthday to a very pretty girl on her special day- Matt <3' That was when I started tearing up and he ended up hugging me some more to calm me down.

It was one of the best days ever. Savannah is still pinching herself. Anyways we are driving home with the radio on. The radio host announced that he will be interviewing 5 Seconds Of Summer after the next song.

The song was Story Of My Life by One Direction. I always start to cry when I hear this song. A lot of crappy things have happened to me in the past. So this song really speaks to me.

The interviewer introduced the 4 Aussie boys and I squealed. He then asked the boys some questions about the tour and then did fan questions.

Then a fan had asked what the boys would do after the tour . "I think we are going to go back home and go back to school for our senior year," said Calum.

I was surprised that they would actually want to go back to school. I was happy that they still cared about education and wanted to finish their lat year of school actually going to school.

They are going to the school where they met. My chances might have gotten slimmer.

This is because I might be going to a public school, even though I like private schools better.
