.Ordinary.World.

All Things New.

Meet Rosie. She is an 18 year old girl. She is a dancer, New boyfriend, Not many friends. And eats alone at lunch. Not many people notice her, but she doesnt let that bother her. She is worried about heart break and thinks about it daily. She has a lot that crosses her mind every second of every day.  Each day Rosie gets up and leaves for school at the same time. Comes home. Goes to dance every day at the same time, eats, then goes to bed. Recently Rosie has not been the same. She has been late to school, misses dance, and goes to bed an hour later then she usually does. She has so much on her mind so she thinks that taking a "break" will clear stuff up. In her life she has many people to please. Her parents who which pay for her classes for dance. And her boyfriend, who she tends to never see.

Will Rosie keep her boyfriend? Will she quit dance? Will she be confused for the rest of her life? Will Rosie ever just be happy?

.outsider.

We were in the 7th grade.

Who knew there was a war.

A war with the whole world.

She keeps her head bent over her desk so her hair flips in front of her face.

She has uncombed stringy hair that is black with orange ends.

She looks like a monarch butterfly.

She writes on the board for the rest of class.

She suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder.

I'm just an outsider looking in.
