A nerd, loser, geek. These are all names which I have been called. I am a fifteen year old freshman, trying to survive the nightmarish year of 2016. It’s 6 am on a miserable wet day. Anywho, I suppose I should get out of bed. “Theo, get out of bed or you'll be late!” my step-mother screeches from downstairs. “I am putting on my clothes now!” I respond, which is a complete lie because I am still in bed. I throw off my duvet, slide out of bed, and get dressed. I rush down the stairs, grab a banana

Ears ejected from my head, a tail began to grow, and my senses rocketed. I smelled Mirakuru. Apparently, I was a parkour master at this point. It was completely mind-boggling and marvellous.
