"Mom, have you seen my suitcase?" Keelan yelled down the stairs."Honey, it's in the hallway by the bathroom." she replied Ugh...I hate packing, it always takes so long...Well since you're probably wondering why I'm packing, it's becauseI'm going to stay with my sister Alex in Colorado Springs, Co so I can attend college there...My name is Keelan Saint, I'm 18 years old, and can't wait to move out..." Honey have you got everything you need for the trip?" My mom asked for the hundreth time already today..."Yes mom everythings packed and in the hall bu the door...you are going to ship the rest of my thingstomorrow morning right?" I asked here..."Yes baby we're going to send them on the earliest time available." "Well you can just wait like everyone else does" grumbeled my father...( yes i call him my father instead of my dad because he is not worthy of the title dad so he is my father and nothing more.) "Now Broly, she's just nervous about this "big change"" my mom chastised him..."Well Candice, she's just going to have to grow up and realize that we're not always going to be there when she screws up again." he said between glares that would have sent me to hell if they could have...

My father and I have never gotten along since I decided to be my own person and not his perfect little puppett...He had this whole plan where I would go into either the military or I would study therapy or medicine in college...I however wanted to study History and Writting ...He thought that this was a waste of a major and declared me a failure since my career would be "nothing" since I wanted to study nonsense...Plus the fact that I'm not his perfect little princess,I don't dress or act the way he thinks I should...instead of being the little bubbly blonde that he always wanted, I'm the outspoken, dark haired, independent young woman that he loathes...my opinions and judgement aren't the only things he doesn't like about me...he hates that I won't dress like and upscale barbie and also that I listen to alternative music that seriously drives him crazy...Well enought about that...you'll learn that I have serious ADD...

"Well honey you tell your sister that we love her and hope to see her soon...and you be carefull and call us if you need anything no matter what it is." my mom mumbled between sobs..."yea, take care kid and try to be better for your sister than you were for us..." shrugged my father...Wow thats loving..."Okay mom I'm going to call from Alex's when Iget there...don't worry I'll be fine..." I said while giving her one last hug GoodBye...That's the only thing I'm going to miss when I'm gone...my mom is like my best friend next to my sister...When she's not with my father she's more alive and free...actuallyshe's more like me than anyone could have guessed...but who knows maybe she enjoys being a mouse like she is when my fathers around...Well I'm on my plane and headed to Alex's ...I hate heights so I've remembered to pack my MP3 player and a great book to calm me down so I can relax...the first song i heard when I put my earphones on was "Never To Late" by Three Days Grace...Since my nerves had calmed down to where I could read, I decided to pull out my favortie book of all time called "Just Listen". After about 30 minutes of reading and listening to "Apologize" by One Republic I fell into a restless sleep, where I can only remember thinking that I was going to show my father that I wasn't a failure but some one more worthy that himself...When I woke up we were getting ready to land...I was suddenly more nervous than I thought I would be...here I was alone in this strange city with no one but my sister and the whole college thing is just a littel overwhelming don't you think...Well I guess I'll just wait to see what happens...Now all I have to do is find Alex so I can get home to catch some Z's and get some food...
