So this Chapter is all about me I guess. So let's start from the not so dramatic beginning. My parents, John Perry and Helen Tuckerman were High School sweet hearts. They were so cute I swear, I've seen the pictures. They both basically knew everyone at school but weren't the stereotypical popular, that just doesn't happen in Australia... I don't think, well from what I have seen, I've seen nothing stereotypical about High Schools in Australia.

Well pass a couple of happy years of being alone, getting married... Jade and myself was conceived, me being 6 minutes older than my twin - no I'm not going to tell you how, this aint a porno!

Jade and I were happy babies I guess we never cried,  I loved a soft fluffy rabbit toy I called Riru, and I loved to sing, Hell I sung before I could even talk! Everyone loved me - well that's what my mum tells me - and I loved everyone.

Now my parents only wanted one child, which was me obviously but you know twins, buy one get one free , but soon enough the secret I've never actually told anyone arrived 9 months later.

I have another little sister, I only saw her for a year and that was it. Her name was Chloe Alison Perry. So a week after Chloe turned 1, my dad and Chloe just disappeared. Jade and I obviously took no notice of it as we were 3, but I could tell something was different. My mum went into a depression stage, losing a lover and a child and husband at once was too hard on her, so Jade and I were sent to my grandparents' house until we were 5 which was weird, you know being away from our parents.

When I came back it was like life was back to normal but the problem was Jade and I were alone, with our mum. Being a 5 year old thought this was what life must be like for everyone. 

Then school happened, one of my closet friend at the time, not mentioning any names here – Gemma Vanderweele – was invited to my house one day, well that was a horrible mistake because as she was 'using the bathroom' she was actually going through...

Then school happened, one of my closet friend at the time, not mentioning any names here – Gemma Vanderweele – was invited to my house one day, well that was a horrible mistake because as she was 'using the bathroom' she was actually going through our cupboard and found pictures and flyers of my dad and sister. News Spreads fast.

I was bullied all through primary school, kids are harsh okay! Luckily I had my friend Jai and his twin brother, Luke, to help me whenever I fell from these harsh remarks about my family and upbringing. Jai and Luke were also my neighbours, growing up across the road from each other was fantastic, I would go to there's for lunch and they would hardly come to mine as my house was suffering with the lack of bills being payed.

Eventually High School started, I was 13 going through puberty and shit, it was a weird time. I was developing crushes while bleeding from down under – Hey a women gotta do what I women gotta do –

One of the crushes that started to develop was on a boy who was very close to me, but you'll find out in the coming chapters!

At age 14, Jai and Luke were getting into their youtube career where I was more focused on what I wanted to become, at the time I wanted to be a lawyer to feel more connected to my dad while Jade wanted to be an actress (typical Jade). It was still tough, I would still get bullied every so often but it was ok I guess, I was over it, I thought less of it more than most people would.

At 16, Jai and Luke moved away to do meet and greets and such, then I was truly alone. Soon enough people started realizing there was no one to defend me so the bullying picked up with calling me names, then calling my mum names and then it all came back to my dad and sister who we still hadn't found. It was all too much for me to handle. I started cutting myself then to drinking. Soon enough they found out who I had a crush on and that didn't end up well. -This was all the reason for why I said I was an only child, I was scared to admit just for the outcome!-

I was thinking bad thoughts, wanting to commit but let's just say a guardian angel flew in from England to save me

I was thinking bad thoughts, wanting to commit but let's just say a guardian angel flew in from England to save me. Evette McKenna, my angel, my hero. The girl I thank to this day for saving me from my thoughts.

Evi taught me how to face the bullies while I taught Evi about Australia, we became close friends. I was still in connection with Jai and Luke and soon enough Evi became friends with them, she eventually introduced me to her best friend in England, Luana Rodriguez, and we became close friends.

I was still really shy with talking to people so Evi made all the friends for us, then Evi came across Maddison, she was an extremely pretty girl, so pretty she made me feel ugly. Evi and Maddie had a connection right away while I was still holding back, I eventually I overcame that fear and started talking to her more.

Maddie then went on to invite Evi and I to a cabin trip with 2 of her other friend, Andy Clarke and Beau Lewis.

Well the Cabin Trip was memorable one! Beau really was the one who brought me out of my shell, she was the sweetest, kindest just awesome person I had ever met! Hell I'm trying to figure out a ship name for us but it won't happen.

Through the rough patch to finding each other I could never be more thank full for my life and how it has turned out.
