"LORRIANE, GET UP. YOU GOING TO BE LATE DAMNIT. LETS GO!" Oh boy, just the words i wanna hear when i wake up in the mourning. I fumble outta bed and make
my way to the bathroom. I do the same shit i would of any other day. You know, take a shower, bush my teeth, do my hair. One thing i always tried not to
do is look into the mirror. They say you can see the gateway to someones soul through their eyes. But when I look back into mine, I see the memories.
The memories I've been trying to put any into the back of my mind. Hidden, keep anyways and to be locked up forever.

Hey I'm new too. You'll catch on pretty quickly it's a very user friendly site. just explore. And the beginning of this story kind of seemed rushed.

It feels like you just threw this in there. This really didn't make me feel anything. And then you grabbed my attention with this

I think it would be cool to start this story with that. It would make me really want to know what kind of memories you have and the stories you are going to share.

But overall I think this has potential :D keep writing.

good grief! that's fast reading! Geez you should enter some kind of reading race or something haha. That's pretty cool though. I doubt your library would have these books, but if you ever see them around pick them up.

Perks of being a wallflower.
Catcher in the rye.
Fightclub.
Rant.
Siddhartha.

those are my favorites. I'm a helluva slow reader though... Like I'm talking 3 months per book. It's just that I don't really ever have the time to sit down and read. I just read two periods a day at school.

WHAT?!?!?!?!?! Are you serious!!! That's some total BS! Lol my school is a bunch of Nazi! I asked if we were going to read Cather and they said that the Texas School Board had banded that book! :cry: But that crazy cool your school is letting y'all read that. To be honest though, Cather is to most people an extremely boring book. For example I've let well over six of my friends borrow it to read, and all but one gave it back to me and said they couldn't finish it. I don't know what it is about the book, but most people just find it straight up boring :(. Where are you going to school if you don't mind me asking? Cause I'm going to move there when I have a kid so he/she can have a GOOD education lol.

Well, it's not bad. Not absoluetely grasping either though... Also, since this is a WRITING site, please captitalize your I's and keep your grammar/spelling and such tidy. Also, avoid using chatspeak as it ticks a lot of people off since this is a litterary site.
Anywho... try to work on imagery a little as well.
You're off to a fair start, just do a little editing and things will turn out well.
Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurl.

"LORRIANE, GET UP. YOU GOING TO BE LATE DAMNIT. LETS GO!" Oh boy, just the words I want to hear when i wake up in the mourning. I glance over at the clock, its 6am. What the hell is this lady screaming for? Anywho, I fumble out of bed and head over to the bathroom to take a shower. I took off my clothes while thinking about what is needed to be done today. Everything was fine, until i looked straight ahead.. the One thing i always tried not to do. Look into the mirror. People say you can see the gateway to someones soul through their eyes. But when I look back into mine, my reflection is the memories. The memories I've been trying to put any into the back of my mind. Hidden, keep anyways and to be locked up forever.
