Leon’s Journal – “My friend Ian”

For as long as I can remember, I have always wanted to be a better version of myself. A hero to someone, but every time I see danger or trouble, I end up… freezing. I guess the hero life is just not for me… I never introduced myself though did I journal? You’re new, I’m new to you and here I am already throwing stuff at you like this, I’m sorry. My name is Leon, Leon Carter. I’m 14 and I’m a highschool freshman. I love games, comics, dancing, chocolate and I’m a BIG, BIG Superhero fan, namely… Superman.

I know, I know… one would say that a guy my age is should be more into Batman, or really shouldn’t be into cartoon heroes at all… but I just love it. The stories, the Super family, and the new Superboy Jonathan? So adorable! Not many people like it, and I get it, but I guess… to each one their own I guess…

But this entry tonight is not for me to talk about Superman, but about… well… who I am.

Sorry about how I unevenly write, I’m just not used to it, but here we go!

I… am adopted, I don’t remember when or how I got here but the bomb just dropped one day for me. My parents called me down and told me one day. I’d say I took it kinda well, I didn’t cry or anything, don’t even think I felt anything actually… I got numb and just… kept on living. Maybe it’s due to the fact that my parents love me so much and that I don’t know anything other than them as my parents, but I didn’t feel anything negative towards them… anyway, I go to school, I have a best friend and lots of friends that take care of me because they say I’m adorable.
