That's My Story

My name’s Daphne. Something really scary happened to me last summer. I was arrested for the first time in my life, for a crime I didn't even commit! What’s more, my crush was there to see the whole thing. Let me tell you the whole story behind my arrest and what happened after.

Hi friends. Unfortunately, I can’t share my name with you. You will soon understand why. I’m 16 years old. I used to go to high school but I had to put my education on hold because my family had to disappear after something that happened at my dad's work.

If you have an attic in your house, you might look at it differently after the story I’m about to tell you. One day I found out that a stranger has been secretly living in our attic!

My name is Linda. I’m 17 years old. My parents adopted me when I was a baby. I grew up in a warm, loving home, getting everything I needed. They never made me feel like I was adopted. I was never curious about my biological mother and father. I wonder if I had searched for them, would I have found out that I had a twin sister..?

I’m Julie. I accidentally discovered my family’s biggest secret. It’s such a huge revelation that our lives will never be the same again. It all started when my older sister Jenny moved in with us after leaving her husband.

My name is Casey. I’m 17 years old. Most people like pizza. I’m one of them. But unfortunately my relationship with pizza is more of an obsession. Pizza is the only thing I eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You might think that I eat different kinds of pizza every time, but that’s not the case. Every day I can only eat like this: Cheese pizza in the morning, mushroom pizza for lunch, cheese piz...

The protagonist of the story I’m about to tell you is a cook. He was trapped underwater for 62 hours. That’s almost 3 days. He became “the person who spent the longest time underwater,” And thus part of naval history. But he didn’t care about that at all. He grew to hate the sea and being a sailor after what he had to live through. He wouldn’t even dip his feet in the sea from then on. Harrison Ok...

I’m Justin. I have to go to school every day with two bodyguards. It sounds pretty cool when I say that. But when you find out what happened to me, you’ll see it’s not exactly something that you’d want for yourself. My dad is a truck driver. For years, he drove around the whole country. We’d only see him 4 or 5 days a month, at most. Even though we barely spent time together, we had this strong bo...

What I’m about to tell you took place in New York. Once you’ve heard the whole story, I’m sure you will want to share it with someone, because it’s interesting in so many ways. You will definitely be blown away by the ending, too. Our story begins when 19-year old Bobby arrives at the college where he is going to study. It was his first day at the school. Naturally, he didn’t know anyone. It was h...

I’m Lucy. I go to a very prestigious high school that is really hard to get into. The tuition there is really expensive, too. People often say “You need to be both smart and rich to be admitted into this high school.’’ Each year the school gives scholarships to 50 students. These students are picked based on their academic or athletic achievements. I’m on the swimming team but unfortunately I don’...

I’m Laura. I’m sure many of you dread getting stuck in an elevator. How about getting stuck in an elevator for 7 hours with your worst enemy? Sounds terrible right? Unfortunately, that’s what happened to me. My parents got divorced when I was very small. I’m more like my dad so I can’t say that my mom and I get along very well. We managed fine for a while. But things have gotten a lot worse recent...

I didn’t have any allergies until I was 16. But last year, I developed an illness called “cold urticaria”, or cold allergy. When I say cold, I don’t just mean cold weather during winter. I’m allergic to all types of cold, including ice cream. I even have to sleep while wearing socks on hot summer nights. I’m pretty sure you’ll be shocked to hear of all the things I’ve been through.

I know all kids love their mothers but I realy loved mine. She deserved all the love in the world and more. It was bewildering how kind she was. I believe she was sent to this world to show others how to be a good person. When she completed her mission, God called her back. She had cancer, but I didn’t know it for a long time. My parents hid it from me. I thought she had been visiting my grandmoth...

I’m Justin. I’m 16 years old. The sun is my number one enemy. You know why? Because I’m allergic to it. I spend my life running away from sunlight. I have the most rare and dangerous type of sun allergy. I can only go outside at night. That’s why I called myself “the son of darkness”  My immune system reacts to the ultra violet rays emitted by the sun. Like all allergies, it can range from mi...

I became a millionaire when I was still in high school.  And I made all that money myself.  I made a decision. I worked really hard and was able to reach my goal. But I ultimately ended up losing all the money I made. It all happened within a year and a half. How did I manage to get rich so quickly and then lose it all just as fast? You’ll find out when you hear my story.

George and I met at a party.  We were sitting next to each other on a couch, but we were both on our phones. I laughed at something I saw on Tiktok.  When I looked up, we locked eyes. He was looking at me, smiling. “It’s been at least 3 years since I laughed like this” he said. We talked through the whole party. Later that night we spoke on the phone. We met again the following day. We w...

I’m Harper. I’m pretty sure you’ll find this story hard to believe. If I heard it, I probably wouldn’t believe it either. But I know that it’s true because it happened to me. My mom had a difficult time when she was pregnant with me. She had to stay in bed for 7 months because of the risk of miscarriage. As a result, she refused to have another baby even though my dad wanted to. After I was born,...

I’m Molly. Something terrible happened to me last year because of my best friend Julie. It sounds crazy but I was stuck at the bottom of the sea for 36 hours. Yes, at the bottom of the sea! Under water! For 36 hours. Which is more than a day! You’ll see that I’m not making it up when you hear my whole story. It all started when Julie showed me a photo.

I’m Fiona. My parents disowned me because of my YouTube channel. They said, “You’re no longer our daughter so you can’t live in our house.” They basically kicked me out! How did it come to this? What did I do to make them so upset? I’ll tell you the whole story.

I’m Amelia. I have an amazing life story. A homeless man adopted me! I can’t wait for the day I get to call him dad. You might wonder how that’s even possible. Once you hear my story, I’m sure you’ll find it amazing too.

I’m Sylvia. I’m 18 years old. My life was going great until suddenly it all turned upside down. Love, drama, revenge, betrayal, happiness, and a miracle… My story has it all. Okay, I’m going to dive right into it. I have so much to tell you about!

I have a very weird phobia: I am afraid of touching and even looking at belly buttons. I know it’s silly.  In fact extremely silly. But it is what it is. The belly button that we all have is the thing that turns my life into hell.  “What do you mean exactly?” you might ask. Here, let me break it down for you. One, I can’t touch my own belly button. Two, I don’t let anyone – not even my m...

My name is Annie. I’m 15 years old. About three years ago I found out that my mom was not actually my mother. Turns out she kidnapped me from the hospital. My life was turned upside down. They wanted to change my name! I can’t get used to my new family. I’m so unhappy and I have no one to talk to about these things. Let me tell you everything from the beginning. To make sure that you don’t get con...

My name is Debbie. The moral of the story I’m about to tell you is this: Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans.    Eric and I have been friends since kindergarten. We always went to the same schools. We’d say hi when we saw each other. Sometimes we’d say “How’s it going?” and chat for a little.  In high school, we were in the same class so I started s...

I’m going to tell you a story about my sister Bethany and our dad.  I watched it all happen from the beginning. I tried to intervene but it didn’t help because my dad wouldn’t listen.  Like every good father, our dad does everything he can to provide us with the best of everything. Unfortunately, he’s very unlucky when it comes to business. He is a waiter and I know that he is really goo...
