Many children, and when I say many I mean the majority of children, growing up had normal childhoods with normal parents who had ordinary jobs. They had fussy
mums and painfully embarrassing dads.
I think it's safe to say growing up my life wasn't anything like that and to be honest I don't know whether to be thankful or not! You'll find out why later in this journal entry.
Now you may wonder why I'm writing this journal especially since I'm a thirteen year old boy. Well, apparently, according to my school councillor I am a very, quote, 'Disturbed young boy' and that I often act out at school because of that which is odd because I mainly act out for kicks. So the teachers want me to confide in this diary over the summer holidays in hope that it will turn me into the perfect student. Fat chance.
Besides I won't even be at school any more when the summer holidays end because my dad is getting pretty fed up with this schools copy the sums and sit in silence approach to education. He prefers we be unschooled (look it up!) which is basically instead of me and Eden (my twin sister) sitting in a classroom watching crone drone on and on we get home schooled. We learn languages, sports, travel the world and experience and use lots of technology (yeah I have the best dad in the world!)
Although I still have to do this stupid journal which is probably going to get burned at the end of the month!
Anyway, I expect you want to know who your reading about.
Well, My name is James Alexander León Rider. I was born on the 4th of March in St Dominics Maternity ward in London. I am 2 and ½ minutes older than my Twin sister, Eden-Rose Elise Rider.
My mum left me, Eden and dad when we were only a few months old and ran off with some accountant, last I heard she moved to upper lead worth (the land that time forgot). Dad wasn't really phased when she left. I don't think he loved her properly in the first place.
And now we get to my Father...Alex Rider. Well he's a spy (could not have said that more casually)
So that's it! For today anyway...unfortunately...not that I don't like writing in this thing.
Yeah I wrote it again! I just didn't like the first version as much.
Please please please please review!
