My life has always been different from the people around me. I'm special as to what my mom and dad always said. I don't feel special, I feel normal but what is normal exactly? 

Since I was a child, I had to supress myself and hid among my neighbours and schoolmates, living like them while carefully being in the shadows and not attract unnecessary attention to myself. I had to avoid any mishaps and misconceptions from the people, to be ordinary. 

As a child, it was weird why I had to hide but as I grew, I knew why

Cause I am something else. I am not normal. 

The older I got, the harder it got

It was getting harder to supress, until I couldn't hold it in and exploded - figuratively and literally

That day leads to another catastrophe with danger and it was the most confusing and saddest day of my life

There was no one I could ask and look up to, I couldn't even ask more from my mom cause she's normal. 

Until one day, a suspicious looking letter came to our doormail and claimed that I am accepted to an academy I've never applied, Enchanted Academy for the Mythicals

Say what?
