As you all know, my name is Kai, but I'd like to write a liiitle more about my background-it's called: The story of my life. When I was younger, I was an extremely outgoing person, with a booming, exuberant personality. I was quite a wild kid, being that in a church when a mosquito landed on my head in church, I slapped my head and said: "I killed it on my head!" (Fan would be disgraced.) Well, the bubbly part of me hasn't changed. In 2005, my brother was born, only he had, at the moment, a life-threatening problem. Luckily it was fixed, but he would have to live on with Autism. This is a disorder in which the brain does not function correctly, and makes it difficult to do certain, basic things. For the past thirteen years of my life, I have learned to cope with his disorder, which has further improved myself as a person and my family in general. Because of my brother's disorder, I had to transfer to a different school to suit his level. The school I went to was made up of a different race than I was, and I was picked on for that. I transferred in 3rd grade, and at the time I had anger management problems and depression. This got in the way of making friends, but I made one that always stuck by my side, no matter what rumor she heard-my friend A. She was the first person that I'd ever met, and she was the nicest person out of all of them. While the other children were saying how I was "white as paper" and a "disgrace to their school", A disagreed. She helped me through tough times, (I'll get to those later,) and my depression all throughout third and fourth grade. In fourth grade, I had to get my first eye surgery for my lazy eyes. In doing this, I missed a Geography Bee that I studied for, committed time to, and rehearsed. I was devastated, but was soon uplifted because people were not raising eyebrows, and saying that I had strange eyes. What was extremely comforting was that my entire class sent me get well cards, and I was out for a week! (YAY!) My teacher was extremely supportive, and he actually came over in the summer to cheer me up, and to surprise me on my way home from a doctor's appointment. I do not think I would have gotten through fourth grade without him. In fifth grade is where the problems arose. My lazy eye came back, and the surgery only worked for one year. My depression came back, and I soon had to see a psychiatrist weekly to help me. In school, I was drifted from society more and more, and felt neglected and alone. Then, I found music. My mom got me into the violin, which I greatly excelled in, and I started practicing vocals. I realized that I had an undiscovered talent, and my voice started to grow, and so did my confidence, until I had the guts to perform at a talent show. I thought I'd be able to kill two birds with one stone-get back into society and build my confidence levels. What I did, did just that. More people started talking to me, and I started singing holiday songs during Christmas time in the school cafeteria. Then at the end of the year, came the gossip and the rumors, which quickly dissipated as the beginning of 6th grade began. For me, sixth grade was an extremely emotional year. I had the same teacher as I did for fifth grade, and I had drawn extremely close to her, to the point where we were texting back and fourth. I won the Brotherhood Award, which is an award for showing great loyalty, kindness, worship, and dedication towards the community and school, and quickly became interested in auditioning on America's Got Talent. I had been considering the thought for the past two years, but I thought that I was finally able to do it. I was still getting bullied, but that didn't bother me anymore. I rose up to expectations, graduated elementary school, and then came my dream/nightmare: high school. Seventh grade was a year of new experiences, and definitely a living hell. I was the only white there, and I was criticized and picked on my seniors for that. I had made friends, only to find out they were a bunch of fakes, but I continued to enroll in music. I am currently 1st chair in orchestra, and decided to try out for my school's musical, Annie. To my surprise, I got Annie's understudy, and one of the orphans as a role. I also performed in the school's talent show, and I got a standing ovation. Little did anyone know that I was the most insecure that I had ever been before. The hurtful words and being neglected had gotten to my head-and I started to hurt myself. That is the one thing that I regret the most. My mother found out 4 months after I began, and she helped me to discontinue self-harming, thank goodness. By that time, we finished the musical, (a huge success,) but I was still insecure about my well-being. My family had further enrolled me In music, and I am looking forward to possibly being on America's Got Talent in next season. I have finished my first year in high school, and have made the best friends I have ever had-the ones on BCSN. They have helped me through such hard times, and they don't even realize it. The weird jokes we'd made were beyond strange, and yet I would find myself to be laughing and shaking so hard to the point of not being able to breathe. They'd always find a way of cheering me up, and I love them to death for all that they do. I love you guys, and thank you for reading this. So there you have it! The story of my winding, twisting, turning life. I hope you like it, and thank you for reading! (Picture): Some of my best friends on bcsn. There are a lot more that aren't in it!
