Some families are plagued by stunning good looks. Some families suffer the dreadful condition of being too rich. Some families (*cough* *cough* Kardashians ) have enough drama to fill a reality T.V. Show. My family? Well, my family lacked all previously mentioned situations, and as such, had to find our fame elsewhere. Thus, the two-legged, soon to be one-legged, chicken was bought, and the pen and paper came out. With the rednecked, turtle-poking neighbors and vengeful raccoons, it was time for our family to enter the spotlight, using the one talent we were blessed with: making memories. But let's face it.
Failures make the best stories.
And, when being related to the Dale family, if there was one thing we were familiar with, it was failure.
And so, each chapter comprises of an individual passage of truth, featuring my Nicholas-Sparks sister Johanna, my big-foot hunting father, my saintly mother of a psychologist, my conspiracist brother Richard (don't even think about the common nickname--He's six feet of solid muscle) , my seven-going-on-eighty years sister Kallie, the sister Mickey, who possessed a death fear of sharks despite the fact we live hundreds of miles from any ocean, and of course myself, Bobby, the female with the male name, though everyone called me BB.
"Wait!" I yelled. "I have knock-knock joke."
"Go, quick."
"Knock knock."
"Who's there?" He asked.
"Cows go."
"Cows go who?" He asked.

"Okay, now get out of my way," he demanded walking past me.
"No, wait-"
I was cut off by Dylan throwing me over his shoulder. He scooped me up so easily as if I didn't weigh much. His arm was strong holding my waist securely and his shoulder was comfortable under my stomach.
Once upon a time, there was a normal girl going through High School. She had really rich parents and she got everything she wanted. Everyone loved her because of how sweet she was. She was completely healthy as well so she lived happily ever after!
Wait! Cut! That is not my life story at all! Let me tell you the real story...
Once upon a time, there was an awkward 17-year-old girl going through High School. She had never met her parents and had to live with her idiotic older brother, William Johnson. They were not rich at all. They didn't even have a house to sleep in. Most people in her school hated her because of how sweet and bubbly she was but she was just trying to make them happy. And let's just say she had a very deadly disease as well.
Now that is the life story of me; Naomi Johnson.
And I don't believe in two things;
1. Happily ever afters
2. Hope
Because I can't just hope that my life will be happily ever after because I know it's not.
