prologue
Lots of girls dream of being princesses, they think it is all gowns and balls and wearing tiaras. Well let me tell you it is certainly not all it is cracked up to be. For one thing we get zero privacy, ever tried to go to the movies with two bodyguards following you, not to mention the paparazzi. Not that I have anyone to go to the movies with, it's hard to make friends when everyone wants to know you for what you are rather than who you are. But the worst thing about being a princess is the fact that your whole future is mapped out ahead of you work hard, study some form of political science, marry one of the well bread young men your parents have been introducing you to since you were a child, have a few kids to carry on the royal line and then one day rule a country.
Hello my name is Princess Helen Lilly Devereaux Thermopolis Renaldo I am fifteen and I am the only child of Queen Amelia of Genovia. I hate being a princess, I mean I guess it might not be so bad if I had an older sibling or even any siblings at all but as it is I am the only heir to my mothers throne. This means I have to do the good princess thing and live up to all their dreams. Nobody ever asked me what I want, what if I don't want to rule a country, what if I don't want to get married or I want to marry a.. well I have tried not to think about these things but maybe now I will have a chance to find myself. After years of arguing I have finally convinced my parents to let me go to boarding school. Tomorrow I leave for Australia. Hopefully on the other side of the world most people wont have even heard of Genovia let alone me. There I wont be HRH Princess Helen but just Helen I might even be able to do some of the things that would be impossible for Princess Helen I can finally find out just who I am. And maybe even make some friends and fall in love on the way.
