It was a normal day in the orphanage for me, I woke up, ate, talked with my friends, people talked with me, didn't pick me.

I had just gotten used to it by now, I was 12 years old, nobody wanted a pre-teen. They'll pick out the young ones, so that's why I always became friends with the older kids, just because I knew they wouldn't leave.

Hi, I'm Phoenix. I'm 12 years old, I live in an orphanage and I've been here since I was six. I'm most likely not going to be adopted knowing my luck.

Why am I in the orphanage? Well back when I was six, my parents got a divorce, the fights were messy, I would hide in my room and make sure my brother could listen to music so he didn't have to hear it. My parents each took one kid, I ended up with my father who I didn't like at all, he got drunk a lot, he never had time for me and sometimes verbally abused me, he decided he couldn't take care of me anymore so he dropped me off at an orphanage, the place I call home now.

The girls here used to call me names and make fun of me because of my name, I always thought it was special. I hate my name now, when I'm 18, I want to change it to a much prettier name, I've always loved the name Catherine, so that's what I plan on doing.

Most of my day when I'm not around doing chores I am  either doing one of two things, listening to music, or watching youtube. I had fallen in love with this Australian band called Five seconds of summer. I absolutely loved them, little did I know what was about to happen the next day would forever shock me.
