My Sister's Keeper - Sara

I hold up a hand. 'What I mean is that those thoughts, they're human. And just because you turn out differently than everyone's imagined you would doesn't mean that you've failed in some way. A kid who gets teased in school might move to a different one, and be the most popular girl there, just beacause no one has any other expectations of her. Or a person who gets to med school because his entire family is full of doctors might find out that what he really wants to be is an artist instead.' I take a deep breath and shake my head. ' Am i making any sense?'

'Not really.'

That makes me smile. 'I guess I'm saying that you remind me of someone.'

Anna comes up on an elbow. 'Who?'

'Me,' I say.

I wished that someone would've told me that it was okay to be me instead of being someone i didn't want to be. On a lighter note, birthday celebration yesterday with the clique and a few others was a blast. i thank you all for the wonderful surprise and effort done up for me birthday (: you don't know how much it meant to me! I LOVE YOU GUYS LA, A LOT A LOT. and to those who wished me happy birthday, THANK YOU ALL. it made my day! ((((:
