Stereotype: A Day In My Life
My name is Erin and every day for me is different. I never know what to expect. If I’m not in school, then I’m most likely with friends getting in some kind of trouble. Enjoy this crazy ride called, Welcome to a Day in my Life.

He wasn’t as mad. I can’t sit for a long time so it was good that I was able to get up and walk to them. My days are different every day and I never know what I will run into.
