Konoha's Orphanage for the Young and Homeless is probably the worst place you can go whenever your parents die and someone has to take care of you. The food is terrible, the staff is horrible, the atmosphere is not as appealing as it should be, and the beds suck ass.
I would know; I've lived there since I was only one year old.
But despite all of these...drawbacks...I think that KOYH could also be the best. So the living environment would flunk any health inspector's test. That makes all of the kids stick together. I've made such close friends with the other kids there, that if I got a dollar for every friend I've ever had, I'd be out of KOYH in no time.
Although it may not be as easy for some as it is for me.
For instance, my sister has the worst attitude problem EVER. She's a real bitch. My sister's only seventeen and has beaten up just about every cheerleader at our school, put green dye in our school's swimming pool, made fun of every nerd, gotten into a new fight every day, never survived a day without detention, dumped every good-looking guy she can find, and loves to smash the band equipment against the wall.
But she's the oldest out of my little brother and I, and she does take care of us. (In a weird, twisted, demented way.)
And for another instance, my brother is a FREAK. He's a real bastard. My brother's only fifteen and he smokes crack, is addicted to heroin, loves to wipe out on his skateboard, inhales deeply whenever he graffities train cars, wants to dye his hair black, dye his clothes blood red, he wears black eyeliner, hates social contact, wants a tattoo whenever he can get the money, and he's seen over fifteen psychiatrists.
But he's still my baby brother. (Also, in a weird, twisted, demented way.)
As for me, I don't do that stuff. (Some of the time...) Sure, I helped my sister by giving her the green dye, and maybe I did just give my brother the spray-paint, but I'm still a nice guy!
I'm an artist. A musician. I love poetry. I crave the feeling of clay in your hands as you mold it into something beautiful. Even though I also wear black eyeliner (and draw on my face with it), I am addicted to watching people dance. Not dirty dancing, though. Ballet. Pointe. Jazz. Hell, I even watch tap if there's nothing else!
So my sister's a bitch who'll probably get laid by the time she's nineteen, my brother's a cold-hearted freak who'll most likely kill himself from too many drugs, and I'm an artist on the inside and a troublemaking bastard on the outside. What did you expect?
Oh, by the way, my sister and brother are Temari and Gaara. As for me, my name is Kankuro. Sabaku Kankuro.
