Hi My names Raven Collins They also call me the Raven only because my favorite type of bird is a Raven only because of it's beautiful feathers and only because I wear black, I was born and raised in Eugene, Oregon. my story starts at a High School I use to go to, Jefferson High was the name of it. this is my story of how it all started.

 

It was a dark and Stormy day I was walking to school alone with my headphones on, blasting my eardrums out like it was the sound of World War one. We have the house to ourselves for five weeks. Only because my parents are out of town for a vaction away from the kids. Never thought I would be going to a School named Jefferson High what a drag. the school of course is miles away from the house and Connor couldn't have picked me up due to the fact that he had to get to school for a morning meeting with Coach Leon. I get to school and there he is smiling and waving at me, I Smile and wave back at him. Hi babe I said gave him a quick hug and walked with him to class he was going on about how bad this school and the football team sucked so bad on it. I laugh and we kissed before going into class. not knowing something terrible might happen (Bang,Bang) two shots were fired as I fell back with two bullets that shot clean through to my stomach blood gushes out like drops of rain onto the floor.. students and teachers Screaming for Help, they were all scared Students were calling for parents, teachers were calling Family members,waiting police to come to the Rescue. Sirens filled the city that day.. I was lifted up onto the Gurney and rushed out onto an Ambulance I was pronounced dead at the scene the atomosphere was and quite..before even getting to the hospital...there was nothing to be done for me.. The gun shot wound pierced through layers of my skin like a thousand daggers.. I was taken to the Cemetery where I was buried..

&ldquo;I&#039;m selfish, impatient and a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can&#039;t handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don&#039;t deserve me at my best.&rdquo; <br /> ― Marilyn Monroe &ldquo;This life is what you make it. No matter what, you&#039;re going to mess up sometimes, it&#039;s a universal truth. But the good part is you get to decide how you&#039;re going to mess it up. Girls will be your friends - they&#039;ll act like it anyway. But just remember, some come, some go. The ones that stay with you through everything - they&#039;re your true best friends. Don&#039;t let go of them. Also remember, sisters make the best friends in the world. As for lovers, well, they&#039;ll come and go too. And baby, I hate to say it, most of them - actually pretty much all of them are going to break your heart, but you can&#039;t give up because if you give up, you&#039;ll never find your soulmate. You&#039;ll never find that half who makes you whole and that goes for everything. Just because you fail once, doesn&#039;t mean you&#039;re gonna fail at everything. Keep trying, hold on, and always, always, always believe in yourself, because if you don&#039;t, then who will, sweetie? So keep your head high, keep your chin up, and most importantly, keep smiling, because life&#039;s a beautiful thing and there&#039;s so much to smile about.&rdquo; <br /> ― Marilyn Monroe
