Ella's POV

When everyone is young all they ever think about is growing up, moving out of their house and moving in with their beautiful boyfriend at the age 18, getting married at an unbelievably young age, and having the most amazing and perfect kids. But then there is me. I am 23, and still living with my parents and all alone. My mom and I constantly get into fights, she is always saying how I should be like my older sister: A drop-dead-georgues, responsible adult, straight A student, a perfect boyfriend, a beautiful sparkling apartment or house, super tight skirts and fancy jewelry for my clothes, instead of what I have (which aren't that bad), a professional job like a lawyer, or doctor or other crap, and bla bla bla it goes on.

And I know there seems to be a pretty obvious solution-Get a good paying job, my own apartment, a new wardrobe and I'm good, but the thing is, is that I can't even get a good job, which would probably be the very first thing that I need, and trust me I've tried:

Magazine writer-I got to nervous at my interview and after she asked to see what I have I started hysterically laughing because I didn't know that she was talking about some writing, that I wrote to show her (Which I didn't have). I guess she thought I was annoyying and not very responsible, because she ended up having to call security, she said I got to "out of control" but whatever.

Photographer-my photos where all pictures of elephants (and half the ones I had shown, I found on the internet, because they only had 4 at the zoo) And the poor guy was interviewing people all day and almost fell asleep, and I would of gotten the job if I didn't jump up and yell when he said I got the job, and when I did he woke up and actually took a look at my photos, and he did not look very impressed when I saw his face. I ended up being the only one out of 17 people that didn't get the job.

Secretary- They let me try it out, which was defiantly a start. But when anyone called I didn't know what to do, and when the person teaching me what to do, would come up to me and ask what the caller needed, I would go blank, and just made up a name, number and a question that matched with what I told the caller. Then the time I wasn't getting calls, I was on the website justfab shoe shopping. 

Then as you can probably guess, all my other job interviews also turned into disaster 

Anyways enough about all the sad stuff in my life, Tomorrow I will be going on a blind date with a random guy that my parents have set up for me. But it will probably end up getting blown, believe me, just like all the other times.I'll humiliate myself which I always end up doing some how weirdly and then the date turns into disaster. It's kind of like when you play a sport and you pass to someone to try to score a goal but the wrong person catches it or it goes in the wrong goal. But in this case it's just me trying to hard to be adored and presentable but then ending up doing the wrong thing, and then the guy thinks I’m a creep and makes an excuse to leave.

For example: The last time my parents set me up for a date, the guy was single, 23 and still lived with his parents-just like me- and he was attractive  so I thought he was perfect and my parents thought he was "the one". But i ordered the ahi tuna, and got food poising 30 minutes later and spent the other hour that I was supposed to be with my date, with the toilet, and had to call my parents and get them to take me home.

So today hopefully none of that will happen and I wont try to hard to be good. And it will end up amazing and we'll live happily ever after and that will be the end. But I guess in reality we all know that none of that stupid crap is real and wont happen (or at least to me it won't!) because everything in my life is a always a mess.
