The year I turned thirteen wasn’t just any year. It was the best year of my life and the worst at the same time. Read on and you’ll find out why...



Friday, June 10



Today’s my thirteenth birthday! I’ve had a very interesting life so far. Hopefully, it’s only going to get better. Who knows what can happen now that I’m becoming a teenager. Let me fill you in on the past twelve years of my life.

I was born in Charlotte, North Carolina to Elizabeth and Robert, two awesome parents I might add. They knew each other since birth. You know, best buds fall in love then get married. The traditional love story. I’d hoped to meet my husband this way even up until now. (I’m working on it. I already have someone in mind! Bust more about him later.)

Well, my parents grew up here in Charlotte. A pretty great city, actually. In my town everyone knows me and vice versa. I’ve gone to school with practically the same people all my life. I have an older brother, Matt. He’s the coolest guy I know and all my girlfriends seem to agree. (He’s pretty cute!) He’s sixteen. He’s actually my only sibling.

As for pets, we have an adorable dachshund. She’s the cutest thing you’ve ever seen. Well, enough about my family. I’m sure you want to know something about me. My full name is Amanda Michelle. Amy, for short. I have short brown hair and hazel eyes. I’m not gorgeous, but I’m pretty. As for personality, I’m usually nice. Although sometimes, I can be crazy. I’m spontaneous. I’ve got quite a few friends and I’m popular (mostly because of my brother). That’s pretty much it.

Today started like any other day. I woke up around midday because the school year had already ended...
