I'm not your average student at McKinley High. Since birth I've been different. I was born with one eye blind and it's affected my whole body. I can't see over to the left very well without turning my head.I can't walk a staright line, I can only walk diagonally. I have these weird spasm attacks where my body jerks and then somebody always stares. I get the feeling like I'm falling but I'm still on the ground and I have to step back. And on top I can't deal with really loud noises very well. And because of all this I'm bullied by Cherrios day after day.

But despite this I've had a passion for singing since I was 11. Now I'm 14 years old and every Wednesday afternoon I sit outside the chorus room door and just listen to the Glee Club sing. I just wish I could join. Now the Gleeks are coming out. Time to head out. "Liza what you still doing here?" Matt asked me.

"I uh asked to help me with history class."

"Cool. Wanna head home?"

"Sure." I wanted to be just like my older brother, a gleek. Sometime in the middle of the night I decied I'd talk to about Glee.

*Next Day*

I told Matt to wait up for me so I could talk to . "Mr. Schuester?" I said as I walked in his room.

"Yes?" He looked kinda confused at me.

"I was wondering if I could join New Directions?"

"Well first of all what's your full name? Middle name is included."

"Elizabeth Annabelle Rufference. But People just call me Liza for short."

"Are you Matt's little sister?"

"Uh Huh."

"Can you sing for me?"

"Sure. I'm gonna sing "Wish I Were Here" from Next to Normal."

"Give me what ya got."

The music started playing and I felt the energy go through my blood.

"In an instant lighting flashes and the burst my leave me blind. When the bolts of lighting crashes and it burns right through my mind. It's like someonedrained my brain, put my frozen mind to thaw. Let the lethergy and pay out while I stood and watched in awe. I am riding on the brightest buzz. I am worlds away from who I was. And they told me it would change me, but I don't know how it does. I have lived a life of clouds and grey, but this is crystal clear, wish I were here. I imagine its remarkable, exuberant, austere wish I were here. It's euphoria, it's anger, it's the winter wind is fire. And it kills my deepest hunger as it fills me with desire. I'm the light and heat of every sun. I'm the bullet from a magic gun. And I'm trying to enjoy it but I'm missing all the fun! Am I feeling what I think I'm feeling the hope the heat the fear, wish I were here. Is this someone else's headshot? Do I just diasapper? Wish I were here. Wish I were here. Wish I were here.... Plug me in and turn me on and flip the switch I'm good as gone. It slits my skin and trips my brain. And feel the burn but I don't feel the PAINNN. Is my brain reborn or is it wrecked. In freedom or in fear! Wish I were here! Wish I were.. Have I blown my mind forever? Is cloudy my new clear? Wish I were here. Wish I were here. Wish I were here. Wish I were.... Can I hide my stupid hunger? Fake some confidance and cheer? Wish I were here. Wish I were....." I sang with all my heart and soul.

"Liza! That's amazing! Do you know how talented you really are?" Mr. Schuester said. "You are so in the club! We practice Wednesdays right after school so just go down to the choir room okay?"

"Okay."

And little did I know that would start my Gleek journey forever.
