This is the first story I have ever written. It was just an idea that popped into my head and I felt like writing it down. Tell me what you think! Don't be afraid to criticize.
Different
I've never really been considered normal. Even before the accident I was always different from the other kids my age. I dressed differently, talked differently, and even according to Dash I breathed differently. I'm not quite sure how that is possible though…
Anyway, I guess you really can't blame me for being different. I mean have you seen my parents? Of course I would be considered a little weird. I dealt with things when I was growing up that no other kids my age had to deal with. Have you ever been chased through your house by EctoWeenies? Didn't think so. Do your parents dress up in neon orange and blue jumpsuits? Didn't think so.
Don't get me wrong, I love my parents. I like the way that they aren't normal. Life would be boring if they were. And thanks to them, I'm not normal. After the accident I began to see my parents in a different light. I realized that they were geniuses and I had a new found respect for them. Even though I become half of something that they hated, I didn't blame them. They gave me a chance to become something that I would have never of even dreamed of. Thanks to them I became a hero…to some people. I'm still working on the whole not evil thing.
To get back on subject, being different is okay. Don't change who you are. You don't have to be popular and go to all of the parties in order to be normal. You don't have to sit at the popular table and have tons of friends. Be different. Embrace it. I mean just look at me, I'm half ghost! You can't really get anymore different than that. But I still have two amazing friends and my wonderfully overprotective older sister that are there for me every step of the way. Hopefully one day I will get the nerve to tell my parents and I like to think that they will understand and accept me for who I am. That's because they understand what it's like to be different. They understand me.
