As she sat there, she felt the now familiar gloom begin to creep over her--an empty dull pain in her chest that made her want to cry. It hadn't always been this way. She remembers a day when she used to laugh and play with her friends. But those days were in the distant past, and when she did manage to conjur them up, they only added to her grief. She sat in the middle of the park, and all around her were people caught up in the activity of life: walking, reading, eating, talking, laughing. But she felt far removed from them, as if she were sitting all alone watching them on TV. She tried to shrug off the dull ache and get up and do something to get her mind on something else, but she somehow couldn't muster the energy and sat there frozen, unable to move. Everytime someone laughed or smiled it made her feel that much more alone, until at one point a tear began to roll down her cheek.

Um,I don't know maybe some thing like.Annie sits on her bed,twisting a lock of her golden hair,as she looks out her bedroom window,watching the people go by.She sees Mrs Ryan pushing her new born baby along in it' stroller while her other children fight over who's turn is it to push their new brother along.Mr Myers is outside his front drive playing a game of basketball with his two son's while his daughter Lilly plays with her doll on their front steps.Annie's mum has always said they the family has been blessed with such lovely neighbours.her mum says that all the neighbours are more like family.Annie herself has 2 older brothers,,an older sister,and 2 younger brothers,yet having such loving and caring people all around her,within she fells all alone,and isolated from all of those who love and care about her.(pretty silly I know)

There she sat. Alone. At least 180 people came to the reception yet she was alone.
That's all you need... take it from there.

...Sometimes I compare myself to a crab in the ocean...surrounded by all the vast experiences life has to offer...while hiding behind the safe confines of my shell...
