Hello, I am Ember Montgomery, and this is my (short) story.

I'm not exactly popular, yet not exactly not popular either. I'm known by people, but I'm mostly independent. I have friends. Just the few, but they're enough. I love reading and I love social media, Tumblr, especially. I surround myself with things and people whom I love. I've always had a thing for photography. I'm average. I get good grades, I lead a normal life. I want to get into a good college and just have a good life. 

Yet on the day after Spring Break, that's when my expectations go down from there.

"You tell yourself, 'I'm not going to be that kind of person,' but it never really works out that way, does it?" 

Life doesn't always give you what you want, but good things can come out of the bad.
