There she is. The prettiest girl in school. My best friend since forever. Elsie Sheinfeld. She’s the typical “pretty girl” in school, and I am typically the boy a girl like her would never date. Being stereotypical, she, of course, is dating the “pretty boy” of our school: Niall Cullen.

Our fellow Cherry Lane inhibitor, Olivia, has a name meaning ‘olive’ in Spanish or ‘peace’ in Latin, which again fits as she is quiet and doesn’t want any arguments with people (the peacemaker as you will) and she is also olive-skinned as her father is from Greece. Elsie is beautiful, and I am clearly ‘God’s Gift’ and I want to make sure everyone I care about is

    I was supposed to be named Rachel. It was a compromise, my mother told me, from what my dad had picked: Raquel. Growing up, I had a friend named Rachel that was nothing like me: soft, composed, and the sweetest smile. As it is hebrew, the name comes from the biblical name meaning “O Beautiful One” or “female sheep”. While this is nice and all, it was much more fitting for my friend. Never could or would I pick the animal the sheep to describe myself.…
