During eighth grade to my knowledge everything was perfect. I was getting out of middle school starting the year with a great start. Awesome friends and a new boyfriend at my side, I was enjoying life. Outside of school my boyfriend was the one of my priorities, kinda a cliche. It was a dream, our relationship was awesome. He treated me like a princess, with respect and manners; that’s what every girl dreams want. I thought I had a prince charming with me. That’s what we wanted everyone to see, a

Inside school kids were running away from home, taking drugs, drinking, having sex, and committing suicide. We are just middle schoolers! My best friend -she and I were on the same swim-team- ending up being a victim to self harm, taking painkillers, turing into an anorexic, and obsessing on suicide. Attempting left and right. Being a good friend I tried my hardest and best to escape falling into the hole, but building up walls to hide she took me with her. I didn't want to see her die, I saw it at school.

Girls and Boys dying from a drug overdose, bloody beatings, alcohol poisoning, and committing suicide. I would see girls find out that they are pregnant, they would lie to everyone things will work out. Ending up in a coffin with a baby in their stomachs, because they didn't want to live and face the truth. People who have a temporary situation and solving it with a permanent solution. To people who don’t decide they lie to themselves, putting layers on and building walls.

“ You are weak when you lie because you aren’t strong enough to face the truth”

    If archeologists discovered my room after its thousand-year abandonment, they would come to many conclusions about my life and culture. They could assume that I was a religious, educated student who lived in a fortunate family based off of my Christian books, textbooks, and jewelry. The archeologists may conclude that I lived in a culture with the freedom of religion and concern for the earth’s resources based on my Bibles and numerous global warming books. Furthermore, my baby teeth, carved wooden art, clothing, and pressed flowers would enable them to use carbon dating to calculate my relative age range and time period that I lived in. On the opposing end of the spectrum, they may come to drastically different conclusions as well.…
