  • The Average Girl *** (Camren)
    The Average Girl *** (Camren)
    It was a story of an average girl named Lauren. She graduated from college and started a job that people thought was one of the most boring jobs in the world. She could not care less as she enjoyed it. Her love life was even duller, but she did not put much thought into it. Lauren always went to prom alone since she never had someone special at school. Love was something that Lauren never experienced: a few temporary crushes, but no dates, no boyfriends, no girlfriends. She had not had her first kiss, let alone something more than a kiss. She thought, and everybody thought she was just one of those average girls. Everything was fine until one Saturday afternoon, Lauren suddenly felt her life was so dull. It was not really about her job but overall about her life. She wanted to change her life. She wanted to do something new. She felt the urge to do something different, but she had no idea where to start. She felt helpless. How was this average girl going to cope with her dull life? What was she going to do? Would she be able to make her life more colorful? Would she turn into someone not average? *** Camila GP ***

    From France to America: a Journey of Strength
    From France to America: a Journey of Strength
    Hi, my name is Melissa. I've never considered myself a strong person, but I didn't realize that at the time. I always struggled to keep a job, never really understanding why happiness seemed so elusive. I thought I was content, unaware that I was, in fact, struggling. I know what you might be thinking, but please, keep reading. Something happened to me during my first year of working at 16 that changed my life forever. It hurt me in ways I couldn't fully comprehend, and while that pain has lessened over time, it shaped the person I've become-someone stronger than I ever imagined I could be. What I thought would destroy me instead pushed me to move to another country, a place where I barely knew the language. At just 24 years old, despite my parents' concerns and their insistence that I shouldn't go alone, I embarked on this journey by myself. Up until then, I had often hidden behind my parents, relying on them to face the world for me. But the events of my past forced me to confront life head-on. I didn't realize it at the time, but I was hiding from the world, keeping my head down, and avoiding the challenges that came my way. But now, I'm ready to share my story, lift my head, and face the world with courage. It's been a journey full of unexpected twists, and I promise you-it's going to get interesting.
