 That's Jackie. lmao.

So I've been working all morning on getting every detail just right, and here it is. The final draft of my story for English.

                                                 Lily

Most people think I have a depressing life, but really I don't. Sure, I get sad on occasion, but otherwise, I'm a happy person. You see, I was born into a family of fame. My mother was a rising broadway actress, and my father was a major movie star. But unfortunately, he got caught up in an unhealthy world of drugs. One crisp, fall night, he overdosed on heroin and died of heart failure. My mother got diagnosed with depression 6 months later. She thought that me greatly resembling my father caused it, so she gave me up to my godmother, my father's sister. This all happened right before my 3rd birthday.

We lived in California. Just the two of us, until I was eleven. But then Rose, my godmother, got a job offer in Cleveland. I remember th move, like it was yesterday. I remember pulling up in front of an apartment building on Gibb Street. It was nice. Not too dirty, and not too clean. Not too big, and not too small. In my room, there was a tall, narrow window, right across from the door. It had a nice ledge too. One you could curl up on with a blanket on a winter's day, while thinking, and watching the snow fall. So one day, I was sitting on my thinking ledge, just watching the world go by, when I noticed a garden across the street. No one was there. Just a young girl, on her hands and knees. I was curious as to what she was doing, so I went down there.

When I reached the garden, the girl looked up at me, and simply said "hi". She sounded sweet with a soft, shy tone in her voice. "May I ask what you are doing?" I asked. "Planting lima beans," she quietly said. After having a conversation with her, I found we had a lot in common. Her name was Kim, and she was 9 years old. Her father died shortly before she was born. She started asking questions about my family. I didn't mind answering them. Kim was my first best friend. I made other friends, but none quite like her. She did things, showing that she cared about me. She even planted a garden for me on my 13th birthday, full of lillies, roses, and forget-me-nots. Kim's friendship took me a long way away from where I was. Now all we have to do is hope for the Hollywood ending.

If you read it all, you'll leave me a comment right??

Hi, I came through NightPirate's journal because I saw that you posted a story. I'm just here to show my support. Writing is so great, but sometimes if people don't read it, a person can get discouraged so I wanted to read your story and show my support. This had a really great beginning. I swear for a moment (because I didn't read the very first line that this was for school) I really thought this was your life. The "voice" you use to tell the story is strong. I'm going to book mark it and come back to read the rest of the story. You'll get a good grade!

very nice story, makes life feel like the world is small because all the things that happen are so close to home in the heart. keep writing :)

Thanks so much!!:)

woah buddy..awesome new look!! came back and wham..totally different..me like. crazy mood still hasn't worn off yet..lol. awesome beginning! got good style and you keep your voice. which can sometimes be lost through the way the teach ya to write essays. never lose your voice in writing! if you don't get a good grade on it.. I'll be very suprised..soo..gonna join the coffee hut now? *huh huh wink win nudge nudge* lol

That is so sweet. Friends can be as important and influencial as family. I hope that this finds you doing well!
Take care,
Aidan

You dropped by my journal so I came to visit. I like your story! It's very well thought out and written. I was ready to keep on reading, like it was the beginning of a book. Keep up the good work. Hope you get an "A"!
