INTRO

I glared at my mom, which let me tell you has never happened (that you know of, at least).

"Mom, what ever happened to freedoms and rights?" I asked her. She tapped her foot on the ground, clearly growing frustrated.

"It's very simple Clare, you are not going" she had that ice cold mom stare (you know the one). "Especially with your boyfriend" She seemed to be completely opposed to the idea of me going to the beach this weekend with all of my friends, and Eli (we can't forget about him can we?). I marched up to my room and sat on my bed. I started writing a list titled:

100 things to do before I die

This was a list my mother and/or father could never see. What makes you think that I'll tell you all of them at once? I have to do them first. I knew this one would end badly, but live life spontaneously, right?

Hey i have this chapter too, because on the posts are way shorter!

CHAPTER 1- #1 SHOPLIFT

I'm not a criminal. Don't even get that idea from me. It's not like I wanted to steal something really expensive. Okay, maybe steal isn't a good word; I think taking something without paying for it is a better phrase. Ever since I had started my list I had been a little more laid-back. And a lot more umm, law-breaking. I know that it wasn't my style to go against the law, but it was so freaking fun. Ahh, fun, what a nice word. You know that rush when you know your doing something bad, but you do it anyway and don't get caught. Now I was thriving on the adrenaline.

I really just wanted to shoplift so I could say that I did, you know what I mean, and to cross it off my growing list. I was going with Eli, mainly because I knew that I would chicken out. I couldn't believe that I was all worked up about shoplifting. Here we go.

"Eli, what if I get caught?" I asked, getting second thoughts.

"Just get it over with" he sighed with a smirk. I eyed the jewelry; okay a small pair of earrings was harmless. Just sneak the ones without a black tag thingy into my bag and then it would be over with. I walked over to the sale rack. All of the hanging necklaces were just so, you know. I picked one up and looked at it then around. I lowered it below the counter and glanced casually around for cameras. Eli gave me the signal. and I plopped it into my already open purse. I walked to another rack and shuffled around in my bag covering it finally getting out my cell phone, like that was the reason for looking for through my purse. I turned and faced the door with an innocent look on my face (it was always like that anyways). We walked out and once I was out the door I wanted to run, fast.

"Oh my god, I can't believe that I just did that" I said once we were in the car.

"I honestly didn't think you could do it either" he laughed. I smacked him. "Ouch" he smiled.

"You know what the next time I hit you it'll actually hurt" I stuck my tongue out.

"Yeah right, like you'd hurt me, of all people" he smirked.

"You know what, enough with the sarcasm, you aren't funny" I said.

"Then why are you laughing?" I pulled out the pair of earrings and frowned.

"I feel bad" I murmured.

"The first step to having fun is forgetting about the bad stuff and letting the fun stuff completely take over"
