      Tell me what's the perfect picture of young adults life nowadays. Would you say a countless number of friends? Going to a party every month? To be in a love relationship? To study and make money? If it's what you think it really is, you could call Melanie Hill a solitary.
      
      At 22 years old, she still struggles with the society' "standards" for a woman of her age. However, it might change this time; new encounters and goals will transform her life forever. It's going to be a rollercoaster.
      
      A discovery of the feeling to love for the first time, and to be loved. An uncommon devotion breaking the stereotypes. It won't be easy, but it will be worth it!
      
      
      "Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment, or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around." by Leo Buscaglia
      
       This is going to be a long journey, be prepared!

*Insert dramatic music* Two best friends, normal right? Well not in this case. Love, wasn't a thing in neither of their lives. But when each other entered, it...was awkward..? A not so innocent blonde, and a very outgoing, annoying, brunette. Stuck between, just friends, or each other's love interests. What will they do? Will boys get in the way?, or were they always meant for each other... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Avery and I were walking the field, talking to each other, or should I say just her talking and me listening. We walk passed this tree then she stops. "Wait! Can we sit under this tree, it's kinda hot, and also I'm getting lazy." I smile at her. "Of course!" I say going under the tree and sitting down. She walks over as well, I pull my hand out to help her, she takes it and sits next to me. "Wow, such a gentleman" she mocks. I laugh at her joke. I love that she makes me smile.
