You know that feeling you get when you meet someone for the first time or for the first time in a long time and you realize why up to that point it's never worked out with anyone else? Yeah well that happened to me and let me tell you, it was the best and strangest day of my life. But before we get to that let me back track a little. My name is Sophia Thompson. Currently I am 25 years old but my story starts when I was 17. I know I know, 17's too young to know anything about love, but hey people always said I acted older than I was. Anyways, back to my story. When people say Mondays are the worst because getting up is so hard clearly, they have never started their first day mid-semester at a new school. That's where my story begins.

Mystery Diary (DISCONTINUED)
Ok started this in 2017, it's currently 2019 and I'm not the same person who wrote this, my style is completely different and so are my opinions and personality, I apologise if u want to read this but I like to keep it up on here as a memory of who I was. Elle Gordy. That's me. Plain old Elle Gordy. I was completely happy and content with my life. That's what everyone thought. No one knew how I hated almost every day in the year. There's more to me than what meets the eye. No one knew that I was thriving for something interesting to happen in my life. Everyone saw me as a straight A student who never did anything wrong. Because everyone saw me as that person I could never be anything else. Until something changed everything. Something gave me a chance to be myself. And this is how it all happened.Complete
