Hi, I'm Poppy Maynard.
I'd like to say that I'm an ordinary Sophomore girl, just coping with homework, obsessing over celebrities who don't even know I exist, in a major dilemma whether to wear lipgloss or no lipgloss. That I have the opportunity to be a real person.
But I can't.
I'm being used by the Government to test out experiments in high school. It's a fairly new project, and I have to wear certain clothes, speak a certain way, have a certain daily routine, to fool those my age.
I'm pretending to be other people, people that I myself will never truly know.
I'm being stereotyped.

The Quiet Girl
I'm the girl from school nobody notices. I'm the one the mean girls always make fun of when one of the guys decide to take interest in me. I'm the honor roll student that everyone thinks has never gotten in trouble, but that's just my school life. Outside of school in a completely different person. I'm not going to say I've been a special agent since I was seven, or eight, because that's impossible. I was still in foster care, then and when I turned 13. I was finally adopted. The man who adopted me was mysterious, but said he took me for a purpose, and ever since then I've been training. I'm not going to say I'm the best, because I'm not, but I'm damn good at what I do and I'm ashamed to know the agency I entrusted my life with, would do something so horrible to me and to the people I love. It's okay when I shut their sorry ass down, they won't know what hit them.Complete
If I'm Louder {Larry Stylinson AU}
It's cliche, really. Harry Styles, the music nerd. All the girls find him cute, but they never go for him because he's...well...unpopular. He doesnt mind it, though. He likes being an outcast. Louis Tomlinson, the popular guy. Has all the best friends he could ask for. Almost all of the girls in school want him. He loves the attention, but its not exactly the attention he wants. Everyone has that one best friend that you're inseparable from...in Harry's case, it's Louis. Or, well, it was Louis. The two boys could never be seen without each other, until one summer when something happened with Liam and Louis. Harry has no idea what it is, and Liam refuses to tell him. All he knows, is that it's caused Louis to act like a jerk, and he really wants his best mate back...Complete

An ordinary girl whom has a few insecurities, an obsession with bands and different music genres, only lets in a few people into her life, and an unexpected surprise. I am Jackie Cord and boy do I have a story to tell. My life was suppose to be like any other: drooling over famous bands, having fun living life to the fullest, singing and dancing like no one is watching, and most of all making my family proud.

No, I am just a girl trying to figure out where I stand in life and so far what I am doing with it seems to make sense. Life takes a huge toll on those who are unprepared for what will be thrown out there next. As for me, I usually am prepared for the best, but always expected the worst to happen.

A Cliché Love Story
Hi. I'm Grace-lynn. I'm a typical definition of nerd. Or geek. Or whatever you call the smart people that like to read and correct people's grammar and what not. My high school is filled with lots of different, yet stereotypical people. So me and my thick glasses blend right in. However, my solitary yet huge secret is what separates me from my classmates. Then somehow, I catch the eye of the school's biggest player.....how cliché! Yes this might seem like a overused and very cliché story, but I promise I won't like the player! Right....?Complete
The Player's Game {Book #1 of the Popular Boys series}
I heard you're a player. So let's play a game. Let's sweet talk. Let's play fight. Let's talk 24/7. Let's tell each other good morning and good night every day. Let's take walks together. Let's give each other nicknames. Let's hang out with each others friends. Let's go on dates. Let's talk on the phone all night. Let's hold each other. Let's kiss and hug. And whoever falls in love first? Loses. If you asked anyone to describe Avery Harrison in three words, everyone would say; sarcastic, care-free, and stubborn. Everybody tends to love her, why? Because she's fun and always has something hilarious to say... Unless she doesn't like you of course, then you might call her; snide, sharp and bitchy. If you did the same with Hunter Matthews it would definitely be: hot, gorgeous, beautiful, and nearly everyone would miss the slight detail that he's a player. That one slight detail is the entire reason Avery hates him, he threw girls away like old tissues, why would she? But with one scheming best friend, they are both pushed into playing 'The Game' with a prize for whoever wins. They pretend to date and whoever falls, loses. The question is: who will lose, the girl against love or the player?lComplete
Life Of A Socially Awkward Girl
I'm not just any normal girl. And I know what you're thinking, Oh my god! She's a vampire or something! But no. I'm not supernatural, even though that would be awesome. I would never be anything like, exciting, or... I don't know. I don't paint my nails or wear high heals like the other girls. Neither am I very social, I don't have many friends. I'm clumsy. Like, extremely clumsy. Just yesterday I poured water all over my white T-shirt, reveling my bright pink bra. And you know what? It was in the middle of lunch. In school. On the first day. Everyone was watching me. Even the new guy. What's his name? Logan or something. Every girl's drooling over him for some reason. I don't get it. And I think you would know by now, how 'not normal' I am. Yes, you know that I'm not a vampire or a werewolf, or a girly girl. No, I'm socially awkward.

Pretty, Popular and Partnered
“Every girl wants to be pretty, popular and partnered.” I, Poppy Lake, need help. I seem incapable of functioning like a normal teenage girl; I’m not pretty, popular and I’ve never so much as held a boy’s hand let alone had a boyfriend. Wherever girls learn how to do this stuff, I need to find out. Do they have some secret society or something where they discover these skills? I’m thirteen and I hardly know how make friends. Funnily enough, that’s almost the least of my worries. My hair has not grown at all in the last two months and the little hair I have is frizzy and dull. I can’t wake up without it looking like a puffball and my attempts to grow it out have failed. The flakes of dry skin on my legs were bugging me so I tried to scrap them off but they were everywhere and rubbing my hand up and down my shin only revealed I needed to shave my legs. At some point, my thighs and tummy had expanded without me noticing (although how I missed that I don’t know) and now I looked like an elephant. Unfortunately, my ears support this look by being perpendicular to my head. I pulled my trousers back down and caught sight of at least another ten spots emerging on my forehead, chin and neck. I’ve tried squeezing them, putting toothpaste on them and even skipping chocolate for two weeks, but spots remain stubbornly there whatever I do. Why does my body feel the need to punish me so much? I threw myself on my bed so I wouldn’t have to look at my horrible, imperfect face in the mirror any more. “Urgh,” I moaned into the covers. There was a lot going wrong in my life: 1. My face is hideous; 2. I’m fat; 3. None of the clothes I own are remotely stylish; 4. I have never been asked out; 5. The most popular girl at school hates me; 6. And I fancy her boyfriend. ---- Based off How To Be Popular by Meg Cabot, the story follows Poppy, a young girl in a situation similar to Steph's who gets personal advice from the mentor herself.Complete

Hi! My name is Poppy. In the middle of year 9 (13-14 years old) I had to move across the country and join a new school. I thought I would just blend in and be a normal person but how is that possible when your past is the opposite of normal and your future the opposite of bright?Complete
