I guess I should introduce myself. I am Christine Genarla, but everyone calls me Christy. I don't mind, actually, I kind of enjoy it. I've always secretly hated my name. It sounds too stuck up. Like a snobby rich person. Christine, go get the limousine, we're going to the ball with the prince.  But hey, it could've been worse. In life, the way I look at it, everyone has a miracle happen to them. To some, it's winning the lottery, others it's finding the love of their life. Everybody tells me that it was my miracle to be alive.
