Description

You might be wondering why this child is writing the story of her life down. There's nothing interesting in a little "farm girl's" life story or her view on how messed up the world is. You may be right. I'm not a big, wise person. However, I felt like I had a lot of things I needed to get off my chest, and also, when I was younger, I kind of wished I knew of someone similar to my age now, who was ready to speak about certain things with a freshly turned adult's mind.I do believe that sometimes young adults need young adults to share their perspectives because we speak a similar, if not the same language.

About the Author
Alexandra Szabo is a young woman in her early twenties, who grew up in a small village in Hungary, and made a move to the UK when she was eighteen. She has always written as a hobby, always “too busy” to finish what she started, but quarantine gave her a bit of extra time to really get back to what she loves to do most.
Dedication
I would like to dedicate this book to my family and the people who shaped me and influenced the way my brain works, let it be in a good way or bad, because this book would’ve never happened without them giving me experiences to think about and analyse.

Introduction
I’m twenty-one. Not exactly crazy life experienced yet, but apparently, not a child anymore either. (The latter is up for debate though.) I’m clumsy and terrified at all times, but also have a fairly positive outlook on the world. I’m grateful every single day that I get to wake up in the morning, I’m able to breathe, I have no diseases other than a little mental illness called anxiety, but that’s pretty much every second person you meet nowadays.
Being me is quite fun, not because I’m special in anyway, I’m not, but because I’ve learnt not to be scared of being myself, to go against the grain and with that, being called weird every now and then. I haven’t always been like this. As a teenager, I wanted to be like all the other kids, I wanted what they had, material things, as well as personality traits. Clothes that were fashionable, phones and gadgets, my parents couldn’t afford. I wanted to be cool and ‘popular’ without realising that both are just a question of perspective. It took a few years of practice and I’m still not 100% there yet, but I can say now more than ever that I’m happy with who I am. I learnt that having garments of the newest trend doesn’t mean anything if you’re not comfortable in them, that I’d rather have food on the table than the newest technology of anything. I also learnt that being cool and popular doesn’t mean that everyone likes you, it’s near impossible to achieve that because there will always be people who won’t agree with the way you live or do things, either due to different up-bringing or just overall a different perspective on the world thanks to their experience in life.
Why am I writing this down though? Good question. The fact is, I’ve always been better with words in writing. I always prefer writing my thoughts out rather than speaking them out loud, because this way, I get to have a moment to think through anything that might be in my mind. I have the tendency to speak too soon or without thinking and I either say the wrong things to the wrong people, or I’m not able to express my thoughts as well, given the usually short amount of time I have to say my views.
I only hope, if anyone reads this one day, they will see that not everything in the world is always so terrible, and if there will be only one person, who considers my words and will be inspired by them to not want to be a mass product, I will be more than happy.
Everyone wants to leave a legacy behind. I want mine to be the love and kindness I treat others with and my no quitter mindset that got me where I am today.
Even if no one will see this (because that is mainly up to me at the end of the day) I just need to get things out of my system with everything that has been going on lately considered.
Childhood Memories

The Toddler
I was born in a tiny village in Eastern Europe to parents who were always struggling a bit financially. I got to spend two years with them all by myself before one of my brothers was born and shortly after, our family was expanded with another child. Being the oldest of three always made me feel like I had a bit more power in my hand (not that it was true), however, my relationship with my brothers wasn’t particularly rosy for the most part, when we were little. Our parents doing day jobs to put food on the table every day and most children in our age living quite far away from us meant we had to spend pretty much every waking moment together, quite literally, as we had to share a bedroom for many years.
There were fights galore, a fair amount of jealousy, and a scary amount of screaming that all our neighbours had to constantly listen to. We are all very competitive people even now as adults so try to imagine having to always play together when we were little. Well, either that or sit somewhere by ourselves doing whatever and no one wants to be alone all the time (I did spend a lot of time by myself reading though).
With all that in mind, I had a great childhood from what I can remember – not that it was that long ago.
I tend to block bad things out of my memory, so there’s plenty of things that happened in the past that I try not to recall, though they come to my mind in moments of silence or late at night and once they’re in my head, it’s quite hard to get rid of them, but you try your best, because you just don’t want to remember family members with alcohol issues (my father being one of them), having no money, your parents fighting quite frequently and so on. Even so, I would still say that I had a happy childhood and much rather think about those situations as learning curbs, as in my opinion, there’s not many families out there who don’t have issues. They might put on a mask for when they’re around others, because it’s nobody’s business what goes down behind closed doors, but conflicts and difficulties also don’t mean the world is upside down, it is just life and the problems that are there for us to solve them and learn from them and work hard to not make the same mistakes.
