Untitled chapter
Introduction
Hello! My name is Abbi. I was adopted as a baby, from China, and brought to the United States, so I could live a much happier and better life. I am extremely grateful to be adopted and cared for in this country where citizens have freedom and the opportunity to go after what they want.
Despite these lucky fortunes, sometimes the world seems very intimidating, and it makes me feel out of place. Every person I’m acquainted with always uses the same two words to describe what I’m like: “shy and quiet.” Despite those personality traits, I am a typical teenager just like any other. I have big dreams, wishes, and goals in life. I have the urge to make huge accomplishments, and inspire people with my words, which I’ve been told are insightful.
This book, which takes place during my high school years, is full of individual stories that demonstrate who I am. This is the second chapter book I’ve ever wrote and only one of three books about my high school years. Most of the stories are true, and a few are based on dreams and my wild imagination. Some of the book might be made up or exaggerated a little bit, but the stories still show what kind of person I am and how my life changed over the four years for the better or worst. I hope you enjoy reading my story and that I can inspire you with these special memories, which are both happy and sad.
