Yes, I know it’s not a BAD report but words like SATISFACTORY and AVERAGE just don’t feel like me. I’ve looked up ‘average’ in the dictionary. It says: a middle place between two extremes, usual, normal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eI don’t want to be NORMAL, I want to be spectacular! I feel special inside. Does everyone feel special? Maybe it’s just normal to feel special and I’m not actually special at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiary, do you think I can be average and special at the same time?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e--------------------------------------------\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eVervain isn’t the smartest, the most stylish or the best at flying and magic – she’s just an average fairy.
