We jumped the border into Pakistan where the Taliban had not yet attacked. An opportunity came up for one of us to go to Australia; I wanted mum to go cause I had almost settled in to Pakistani life and wanted to stay. But my father sent me instead. That was the last time I saw my parents. I have no idea where they are, if they are ok, or if they are…

“Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no, no! This is going to be bad I know it will!” I think. The internet is down so I can’t do any research either! I need to stop and think of all the possibilities it could be. “Not a volcano, not an earthquake, not a mudslide, not a tsunami, not a drought. That leaves Tornado and Hurricane. Great I’m back to these two again. We’re not that close to the ocean so that leaves tornado. I didn’t think we could get those up here!” I consider. I have to warn people! But how? I…

Looking back upon all of the years I’ve heard people call out my name, I have definitely had mixed feelings about it. Ellie Rose Cuneio. I’ve never despised my name, but I have learned to love it. Just like, to me at least, months have different colors, I feel like names have the same effect. However, I feel like those things change when people assign me nicknames.
