"Zoe get up! You're going to be late for your flight!" My mom called from up the stairs.
"I'm coming, just let me make sure I have everything packed" I replied.
I was going to take my first steps into the real world, have my own freedom. I have been stuck in this house for 19 years, I think it's time to get out. My story isn't that simple, I'm not the ordinary girl you see. I am not one of those who you think have grown up to have had a perfect life, perfect family etc. No. When I was born, I was given up for adoption, I was adopted by my loving parents Graeme and Hillary longshaw. Growing up was tough. I was bullied and judged on everything; I mean everything. My clothes, hair, makeup, family etc. I couldn't take it, I had to show everyone that I was different and that I was 'cool' like them. When I was 15 I started sleeping around, started smoking: drinking, anything I could, I would. 15 years of age is when I fell pregnant, I was petrified, mortified, I didn't know what to do or I couldn't believe what I had gotten myself into. Luckily my parents were supportive and helped me go through with an abortion. I couldn't believe I had took my own innocent baby's life, I felt so depressed; suicidal also. I would cut in my room, so deep that I would go to hospital. Those days were horrible and now is the day I forget them and move on into the big world.
