My name is Jacqueline Marie Jones, and I am seventeen years old. I am entering my senior year of high school here in my hometown of Turbo, Maine. If you're reading this, I only hope that you have read about my aunt Leanne Wells, and my mother Natalie and the rest of the Malry family. Now it's my turn to share my story and life with you...
High school had been fun, and cannot wait to see what this year has in store for my friends and I. My mom says that senior year will be tough, but exciting at the same time. I cannot help but laugh every time she brings up her senior year, because I know the final outcome of that year for her...My mom and Robert dated in their freshman and Sophomore years of High School, but slip in the summer going into their Junior year. Mom's Senior year was crazy, Leanne moved away, grandpa died, and mom found herself back with Robert. Just before the end of their Senior year, I was conceived. They eloped and moved in together, and well it was a terrible idea.
I was born Jacqueline Marie Hall on September 13, 2005. My parents divorced when I was five years old, and shortly after I turned eight years old, my stepdad, Liam Jones adopted me. Liam is a marine who my mother and father went to high school. Shortly after my mom and dad divorced, my mom bumped into Liam and began catching up. They were married on August 13, 2010 and had quadruplets together; Evan Joseph, Sierra Mae, Johnathan Christopher, and Jeffery Allen Jones on March 10, 2010. Last year, they had another baby girl they named Theresa Anne Jones.
My biological father is Robert Hall, cheated on my mom before they were divorced, and eventually married his mistress, Kayla. They had a baby boy they named, Orion on April 26, 2010.
My mom keeps telling me that my senior year is when everything will change. Some of my friends will move away or go away to college. I, myself, am looking at applying to colleges out of state. My mom and dad want me to have the best and live the life that I want. My dad says I should use my senior year as a way to prepare for the future, not just focus on the fun times. My mom says I should take more chances this year, but I have always been more of a cautious person. I'm hoping I can take more chances and prepare for my future all at the same time...
I am single, but not alone. My group of friends is huge and very close. Where to start naming all my friends let's see... There's my best friend since first grade, Dianna Dolley and her boyfriend Blake. Then there's; April, Ashley, Chantal, Anna, Liz, Judy, Tessa, Ace, Paul, Edward (Eddy), Austin, and Eric. Yes, I am infatuated with Eric. I am trying to work up the courage to tell Eric that I have had the biggest crush on him for almost two years now. I guess you can say that that is my goal for my senior year...
