Samantha Finally my birthday is here. I got out of bed at 6 am, excited to start my big day. I'm not mad at where I am now in life. It's better than what I hoped for. I have my own place which I don't struggle to rent anymore, I still manage to go to school, even though I've accumulated some absences because I wanted to avoid trouble with my bullies. Oh, I've almost paid Carla back for the life saving loan that helped me get up on my feet. I'm actually in a good place, considering all the nasty stuff that has happened to me. I take a quick shower and wash my face, brushing my teeth and making sure that today I don't have pimples on my forehead or strains of hair out of place. Today I'll make an effort, the best effort I can, to look as appealing as possible. Not desperate, just appealin
