Here Amanda will tell you her stories of her life, on how she copes with being a black girl in an area with predominantly white people. She talks about how she deals with racism and much more. In this book you get an insight of that one black girl...
My friend would always complain about her appearance. I hated that. She was always so beautiful to me. I thought that maybe she was begging for compliments, because how could someone so pretty be that insecure.
She would say "no one likes me". Yet there was a line of boys begging for her attention. For me, it was as though she was being selfish.
If she thought she was ugly then what was I? It made me feel worse about myself because I knew she was way more attractive than me.
I failed to realise that other people have their own problems. Back then, I believed that attractive people had no insecurities. Thinking back at it now, I was so ignorant to think that way. I now acknowledge how wrong I am. Even the people you view as perfect have their own struggles. We all do.
So what do you think? If you spot any mistakes in my writing please let me know. Very close to the end. How are you enjoying this book so far? Don't forget to vote and comment your thoughts.Baii

Here's a drawing I made while back. Do you think I should start drawing again? Maybe even make a book with my drawings?
