My life is one of shame. Of never-ending embarrassment. Oh, the pain.

The truth is, I simply cannot deal with the embarrassment.

I JUST WANT TO DIE RIGHT NOW.

Oh, my god.

...

Well. It's like this.

For some unknown reason, I have a secret passion for singing. Right. Yes. So, I thought that maybe...maybe this year I would audition for one of the soloists in the end-of-year performance.

WHYEVER DID I THINK THAT? Now that I look back on it, i SIMPLY DO NOT KNOW.

Anyway.

I was sitting in the music school, practising. Generally I do not do this. I limit my singing to home, where my tolerant family has built me a soundproof room where i can practise violin and oboe. However, today I was overcome by my lack of friends and retreated to the building i regard as my second home. There I sat for a while, feeling depressed about my life. As I inevitably do when I believe myself to be alone, I began to sing.

I felt rather bored so to divert myself I sang in a high-pitched and ridiculous way.

I continued on for a while until suddenly I heard a noise. Yes; it would appear that my overly high pitched and loud singing had caused me to be oblivious to the presence of ANOTHER STUDENT IN THE ROOM.

What was more, it was a GIRL IN MY CLASS. What was her name again? Ah, Anna. She's always been nice to me. well, nice enough.

She looked truly frightened for a second, then tried to make out that there was nothing wrong. She muttered something about my glasses, then left.

IT WAS A TERRIBLE AND AWFUL MOMENT. That moment when I realised that ANNA WAS IN THE ROOM.

How could i have allowed myself to be caught engaging in such a RIDICULOUS AND EMBARRASSING ACTIVITY?

Sometimes i wonder at my stupidity. In any case. Oh my god, where is Anna? I must find her and kill her. Brainwash her.

Actually I think i will just kill myself now.

WHAT AM I GOING TO DO IF I SEE ANNA AGAIN?

OH, MY GOD.

OH, MY GOD.

...

Why does my life suck so much.

God. Okay. I should definitely go and study now. I have to keep up my reputation, you know. I have an awful feeling that my marks are slipping. Especially maths. Damn probability.

...

IT'S TOO EMBARRASSING

okay, breathe, Audrey. JUST GET OVER IT

IT'S NOT LIKE SHE EVER LIKED YOU IN THE FIRST PLACE.
