Anastasia Grace Lawson| Twenty |Usher |bi-sexual | Advertising I don't patronize I realize PERSONALITY Long before the time when she started to realize that she didn’t have to fit into society, Annie was just another scare little girl. She didn’t bother trying things she liked, and now she regrets it, she has fun, and doesn’t care what other people think about her. The only opinion that matters to her is her’s, which doesn’t mean she can’t respect other opinions if someone wants to share them in a nice way. She likes to hear what other people think, but she doesn’t care. She likes to hear the opinions that people have because she’s curious, but she doesn’t change because of them. She is a very observant person and notices things that other people don’t acknowledge, like little clues that someone likes you, or clues that someone doesn’t want to be with you anymore, which makes her good a giving relationship advice. However her love life is a mess, she doesn’t know when people like her, and it would probably just be better to be blunt and tell her then to give her hints because even though she seems observant about everyone else’s life she doesn’t have a clue when people try to do those things to her. She tends to fall for anyone, and doesn’t really have a gender preference, either way she just likes people. She likes to be around people, and doesn’t like being alone. She makes friends easily, and tends to lose them just as fast since she doesn’t do much to keep them around. Her personality is sort of careless, and she doesn’t really care what people say or do to her, but if you mess with her she will mess with you back. She has a slight sort of sarcastic attitude sometimes, and that can be because she needs a smoke or because she is annoyed. She likes music, and plays Bass, but her over all passion is definitely for photography, even though she decided to major in advertising because she figured that would create more opportunities for her then for her then studying photography. She likes to do it on the side. She also works at the movie theater as an Usher, because she needs money for food a things, even though her parents, or guardians, are paying for most of her college, she still needs to pay food, and rent. She feels bad not being able to pay for things so she got a job because she needed to so something for herself.
Name: Annie Lawson Age: twenty Grade: Sophomore Gender: Female Hair Color: White/pink Eye color: Brown I'm loosing myself and i'm half asleep History: Annie’s mother was a photographer, she explored the world and never cared what other people thought. She never stepped inside another school after she graduated from high school. She never said another word to her teachers and all those people that kept her locked up her entire life. She explored the world and took pictures of every inch of it, she met people that taught her things she would never know sitting at home doing work, and that was what she loved to do that was until she had a baby. It was one night of drunken fun in Paris, and there was a child inside of her, but she vowed to keep taking care of the child and doing what she loved at the same time. So she took her baby with her, Annie saw more of the world before she could remember then most people would see in their entire life time. That was until one day her mother dropped her off at her grandmother’s house, and never came back. Annie was too young to understand why she did that, but for days she cried out for her mother not knowing that she would never come back. She didn’t understand why her mother did that but she wanted her to come back, she never did. Annie grew close to her grandmother as she grew up, since she was like a mother figure to her, here and then her uncles would come around, and they enjoyed the company of little Annie, but for the most part for the next few years she lived with her grandmother. Even though her grandmother could not do much for her, she took care of her the best she could, until she also left Annie’s life, she died peacefully in her sleep when Annie was ten years old. From then on she lived with her uncles who took her in as their own since they couldn’t have their own children. She never really thought about her mother much but when she got to high school, her uncle decided to let her in on why her mother left her. Long before the time Or Annie’s pink hair, and trying to look like she didn’t really care. She was a cute little blonde fourteen year old girl, that sat on a sofa in her uncle’s living room listening to him tell her that her mother had really left her, ten years ago, and it turned out that she had left because she knew she couldn’t take care of her, and she knew she was dying. She didn’t want her daughter to get attached to someone who was just going to leave her life when she was fifteen or sixteen, and she couldn’t let her daughter spend her entire life traveling the world with her and not going to school or becoming a normal child. “Annie come in here for a second,” said her uncle Josh. Annie who was in the kitchen making a sandwich, she stepped into the living room and watched him turn the T.V off. This was serious, since they had background noise on at the house most of the time, there was always a conversation going on at the same time. Something told her that when the T.V was off, the conversation was serious. “You know that I love you like my own child.” Was this one of those talk where he told her to be responsible? She was starting her high school career and she hadn’t heard that talk yet. “Yes,” she nodded and took a sip of her tea. “You that your mom left you with Grandma when you were very little right?” Oh this wasn’t that conversation. She put her glass down on the coffee table. “Yes,” she said with a little bit of a skeptical tone to her voice. “Well, your mother didn’t do that for no reason, and I think it’s time that I tell you why she did that, I was her sister and I loved her, and even though I didn’t support her decision I still loved her….” He paused as if he expected the girl to say something but went on when she didn’t. “She knew that she was going to die, and she didn’t want you to have to deal with that, she didn’t want you to have to see her weak and pale when you were a little girl and have to remember her face for the rest of your life, and Grandma agreed to take care of you, we didn’t know that she was not going to make it, but trust me I’m glad you ended up here and not in some foster home.” She still didn’t say anything; she took in all the news. She didn’t know what to say. It was all hitting her so fast, like she had gotten punched in the throat. She had no idea what to say even though there was a million questions she wanted to ask. “She said that Grandma should give you this,” he handed her a shoe box, “and I think you’re old enough,” he said. Annie took the box still shocked into silence but what he said, and opened it. Inside was a camera, and a letter, and a necklace. She didn’t know what to do with the camera and necklace so she put it to the side and opened the letter. Her eyes scanned the page, reading the words but no comprehending them as tears fell from her eyes. The last words on the page were I’m sorry. She couldn’t help but cry as she saw those scribbled words, in messy scrawl on the last line of the paper. “Take me to her,” her words didn’t make as much sense as she thought they did when she planned it out in her head. “Annie I have no idea where she is,” they were talking about her as if she was alive, but she wasn’t. “Then I’ll find her, there’s this amazing invention called the internet? Have you heard of it?” She hadn’t meant to be that rude but the comment slipped out, she had to know where her mother ended up. She had to know that she was gone. Her entire life she had been waiting for that moment when her mom was going to walk back into her life and pick her up and take her out on an adventure. She had been convinced her entire life that maybe her mother was looking for her. She had to know that she was gone, the logical part of her told her that it would be closure, and the rest of her just wanted to curl up and cry. *** “We can’t hop the fence isn’t that illegal?” “We won’t get caught,” her guardian’s sounded just like teenagers as they stood in front of the fence. “What if we get arrested?” Annie didn’t say anything, instead she climbed the fence and was already half way over it when she heard the conversation. Her guardians did the same and all three of them were over the fence now. It was still light outside, but either way the place look creepy. The last few weeks had been a blur to Annie she had been looking so hard for where her mother was buried, convinced that she hadn’t done something stupid and donated her body to science. The suggestion that she was cremated was a joke to her. She couldn’t let herself believe that there was no way for her to get the closure she needed. She hadn’t even know n her mother, and if someone had told her that her father was waiting to see her she would reject the notion, she just had to see it. Like there was something inside of her that would feel a thousand times better knowing that this was really her, and that she hadn’t actually been walking around for years without her. She scanned the lines of graves, until she saw the one she was looking for covered in dirt, and mud, it was small. She bent down and wiped some of the dirt off it. There was her realization that she was gone, and once again she was crying. She couldn’t help it. It was the end of her journey. The end of the road and she didn’t know what to do next. The Camera was in a bag over her shoulder and she pulled it out. She wasn’t sure how to work a complicated piece of technology; the first thing she saw was a picture of a baby once she figured out how to turn it on. She couldn’t help but get a little teary eyed because she knew it was her. They were all her. “PUT YOUR HANDS UP!” She heard the voice and dropped it. “Shit The cops,” When she got the camera back, she took it to a store to get it fixed, because of the cracked lens from dropping it, and her parents had to explain to the cops the situation, after spending the night in jail, and making them pay a fine, they let them go. They never went on another adventure like that again. Annie never really forgot those dreams that her mother was going to wake up and walk back into her life, and even when she was with her grandmother, and she was taking care of them, she still had hope, even after moving in with the two guys that could support her better than her mother ever could she never gave up hope, but she returned to her normal life. She found a love for that camera after arguing with the person at the shop that it would be cheaper to buy a new one. She started dying her hair all different colors and not caring about how she looked. She wanted to become someone people would notice. She didn’t want to be that little blonde girl anymore. She got piercings, she joined a band, learned to play bass and kept taking pictures. She had fun with her high school career, and even though she didn’t graduate top of her class she tried to best to make her mother, and grandmother proud. Now she attends Landcaster in hopes to get a degree in advertising, and make a name for herself. She doesn’t know the direction her life is going in but she likes to have moments to remember, and she’ll do anything to have a blast with the end of her free life before she settles down with children and a family of her own. |
