Chapter 1:

The competition I’m Annie, I’m 17 and I go to Forbridge high for all you guys who don’t know a lot about me by the time I finish this diary I think you'll know way too much. Since I was 3 I’ve lived with my mum and my baby brother (my baby brother is called Jonny) I have two best friends who I have known from reception their names are Susie and Livi they live down my road, we go shopping every weekend, well every other since I have to go visit my dad. My dad lives in shed filed, that’s near Portsmouth. It was long old drive for him to pick me up every other weekend. At my dads I have a half sister; Becca. She’s about 3 now. She’s very sweet and when I bring friends round my dads I’ll always get the occasional "Aww, she’s so sweet!" around me. But really, I mean seriously she’s a total nightmare. Like the time was in the shower and she turned all the taps on in the bathrooms so my water would go cold. Moving on to more important matters. Oh I forgot to tell you where I live. I live in London south east of London high street and leisure centre. At the moment I’m trying to enter a break-dance completion with Charlie my cousin. We've had break-dance lessons since we were 6. I think break dancing is great. Especially when you can bring all your friends to watch you and they are bombed out about how amazing we are. When were older Charlie, Susie, Livi and I want to live in California in a house together. We want to all be great surfers, well Livi and Susie. Charlie and I are waiting to enter the massive break dancing competition in California dance champions everyone knows we can do it. There in 2 years time and that makes me and Annie just old enough to enter. Which is fab. I’ve been working at the east bury coffee shop with the girls on some weekends to save up for our dream. We've found a lovely house on the west of California near the beach that’s on sale. We look at it every night thinking how amazing it would be to get that house.

Chapter 2:

Living a surprise "Mum Annie, Livi and Susie are going to pop round for a bit," I said. "Ok darling," She said. We all sat on the sofas watching cribs. Livi hadn’t turned up yet which was quite odd. "I’m here, with a massive surprise" My mum and dad just found a job in California. They said if I came out they'd by me anything. Livi was always the spoilt brat, she got everything she wanted. "Oh," I said. "Whets the matter?, its great, ha, I forgot to tell you" I can bring you guys. I was shocked. Surprised, dazed. "So skipping to the point, what did you ask for Livi?" said Susie. "Are you crazy, I brought that house" said Livi. Really? Wow that’s amazing. Charlie fainted. I was too surprised we all sat down and screamed. That was amazing. I was too surprised to speak. "When we leaving?" I said. "On Friday" Livi said. "TWO DAYS TIME" I said. This is what I wanted all this time and when she said this a few things flashed before my mind. My mum. My brother. My half-sister. I would just leave them, I never thought of this part before. But I had to go, this was my dream, my mum wanted me to do this since I was little she'd always say to me. Follow your heart. So I left and now I’m sitting on the plan with my two best friends and my cousin.

Chapter 3:

Too many laughs. Too much sadness as we arrived and Livy’s parents dropped us of at our new house. I heard the wave’s crash onto the beach. CALIFORNIA. Everyone shouted. We went inside the house in astonishment. It was massive. 6 floors it had. Livi was one lucky girl to get her parents to buy her this house. No affence to Livi but I think her parents neglected to her a bit. They just wanted to give her this house so they could go of to a different place in California by themselves. But it’s fine because she’s happy. So we all sat around the fire on the beach that night and decided what we were going to do the next day. Surfing, swimming, break-dancing, or shopping. We all wanted to do different things so we went out to find different things as usual Susie and Livi headed to the shops. I went to find a Job and Charlie went to break-dancing. At the end of the day I found a job called Vogue house. It was the called “The vogue magazine” section E with a friend I met there called Jessie. Since we got given Livy’s dad old credit card they brought 3 new convertibles of course all pink except one which was silver for me. And Charlie found us some break-dancing lessons for the weekends. It felt like everything was coming together already. When we all met up at home. Livi had a few more surprises. “I can’t believe it!” she said. “What?” we all said. “ My dad has sent me a letter telling us that we have got 2 maids a chief and someone to clean our pool and a gardener, I love my dad.” We all stood shocked and amaze. This was way too much. He couldn’t just be giving this to Livi, he must have done something. I had to find the secret behind this. “So what’s everyone doing tomorrow?” What everyone did yesterday, except me. I travelled up to Livy’s dad’s village to find where he worked. He worked in the standard empire house. He was head of the English writing community. I stood puzzled looking at the sign. Maybe I had misjudged him. Maybe he was a nice man. So I headed back to the house. The girls where on the sand playing cards. I felt like tomorrow was just going to be another day.

Chapter 4:

Break it up 2 letters arrived at the door in the morning, we hadn’t had any letters. First ones for us. Probably bills I thought. Then I thought Livi’s dad paid them, what was it? Oh I couldn’t just stand there. I opened them. It said: Dear Charlie. Here at the break-dancing community for you application u gave us for you to enter the competition. We have accepted your offer and hope to see you in a month. Get ready to be challenged and bring some people to watch. Sincerely Break dancing Head. “CHARLIE!” I shouted. “Yes?”. “What have you done?, you’ve entered yourself into the break-dancing championship with out me?” “Oh, I’m sorry Annie, they offered me an application to send to the head. You weren’t there. I’m sure on the weekend when we go to our lesson they’ll offer you one to.” “Oh I’m sorry to burst out on you like that Charlie. I will.” Great, so I got that one sorted, plus the other letter was the neighbours down the road offering us to come round for some tea and coffee. We all hate tea and coffee but oh well we needed to have some friends around here.

Chapter 5-Pinch me:

The love the next day we all went to the kenziees' they were our new neighbours, I think Livi fell for the feller they were all over each other. He had a girlfriend so they couldn’t be flirting, plus if he did our reputation for Livi around here would be edgy. So we sat her down. Mat his name was, we asked her first; "So mat? Eyy" "What about him?" said Livi. it was quit good because so far she didn’t seem the slightest interested normally if we would say that shed be like "matt, oh mat, yes what a hottie" but no, nothing. So I think it was clear, until Susie spoke out "maybe she’s not interested because its real love, true love. Maybe they want it secret" said Suzie. "Well we'll have to find out, wont we.." said Charlie. This was up for detection. She couldn’t go with Mat. MAT?. He had just arrived to take Livi out for some water surfing. This couldn’t be happening, maybe its just friendly activities. I was a bit worried now so I thought id grabs my bionics and go down to the beach with Susie, it seemed to be fine. Just a bit of fun. Until.. No way, they couldn’t I thought. They were making-out. "ewe." Susie said. "what shall we do?" said Livi. this was up for investigation.

***********************************************************

The next day we thought it was best not to talk to her, we wanted to see if mat and his girlfriend had broken up, in London the gossip came around like no tomorrow. The gossip in California comes around like next year. But we thought there were other people who new mat so we could just ask our other neighbours, I mean I do think it was a bit rude to not introduce our-self since wed been here for more than 2 weeks. So we invited everyone round. Not everyone just the neighbours, which was quite a lot. The next day. When everyone was arriving, well 30 of them anyway there was meant to be 50 arriving but probably Suzie’s loud music at night blew them off. Well, they were very polite and weren't shy which was what we liked. I see Livi had found a new neighbour entering the break-dancing competition already which was fairly good as they could go team together but on the other hand they could compete and have an enemy living down the road form us. plus I think I had found my new crush.
I woke up in the morning with a weary head. I must have done something stupid last night I though, I got up and walked down stairs and poured the cornflakes into a bowl, butsept they had all gone and that meant for the first time I had to go wandering around these streets to find a supermarket to go and buy some more food, I went up to Livi’s wallet and grabbed some money, I wasn't stealing if I told her it was for food she’d be okay about it, besides she wasn't up for me to ask her. I drove down to the supermarket while all the boys put their thumbs up at my new car, I was happy because I thought I was going to be the next celebrity I already felt I was living and being filmed by the hills. For all you who don’t know that it’s my favourite MTV programme. I brought all my shopping and left back for the house as I was driving down the road I saw, wait, no way, it was, Livi and Mike (mike was the boy who was entering the break-dance competition) fighting, they were fighting, I should of stopped but if I had stopped it I didn't want mike to think I was on Livi's side, then we would never fall in love.
I unloaded and put the shopping away and went back to vogue house to finish of some work on "JJ fashion magazine". There was a new girl there, her name was Heidi. I showed her around and brought her lunch, I got way too carried away until I realised. Heidi was from "the hills" I wandered why I had seen camera men around places. I thought I shouldn't brag on her but I asked her
"Are you form the hills" I said, "not to brag or anything but I thought I had seen you on it with Spencer?,"(her boyfriend)- if I had got this wrong I would never regret a fool of myself I have made.
but no, I was right she was and that meant if she started to work here I would be viewed on it to and the camera men would think imp some rich California girl and start filming my life style. I was too excited.

I drove of at 70mph to the house and ran through the door, Annie, Suzie, Livi. The girl Heidi form the hills, shes back. At the vogue house, i work with her now, which means.

"what, you get filmed from the hills" said Susie

"yes". This was my dream im sure i could be dreaming from a year ago living in a london flat with my mum and Jhonnny and im now living in calofornia right next to the sea with a convertable and im on the hills. This was my dream. Pinch me.

Chapter 7- they're visiting:

Today my mum and Jonny are coming down from London, Livi's dad gave them moeny for a flight here and back and a weeks stay in a 6 star hotel, i just can't wait to see them, a months gone by, by now. Its gone so quickly. I expect its because we've had so much to do we just havn't realised.

Susie and Annie, well to be honest i am a bit worried they've moved on too much. I havn't seen them write one letter or phone their parents since we left. Its quite funny though how together here were like a big family. lets say; Im the mother, susie and annie are the children and Livi is my husband. I have to go to work now. But then im going shopping downtown. I do need a bit more for my wardrobe, owrrying thqat i've been in california for a month and i've gone shopping ONCE. just once. So il go with Livi, you know bit of cash bit of clothes bit of jewlrey the whole new trend. When i went to work i had some let down news coming to me. No i hadn't lost my job, but i'd lost my hills friend, Heidi. She didn't get accepted. She wasnt fast enough on the computer. I could change this i knew i could. I went to the boss. I said how she could be my writing isitant and how she could be such a good designer with miley for the dresses, and how my magical fingers worked. She WAS accepted back into vogue house. Yes, oh yes, so i just stepped up my dream so it didnt half blow away.

I picked up Lvi from break-dancing at around 1.00pm we went out to have some lunch and then we went

SHOPPING. amazing shops down the highstreet you know. Tiffany. The expensive ones. I brought some new shoes and a necklace from tiffany and all this expensive stuff. We had some breakdown news from Livi's dad though. He had gone broke. His company had imported something ilegal and he is no longer alowwed to work for them. One thing is for sure, we'd still get the house and cars and everything he just wanted to get his carrier back on track. Yes. Once again my magical fingers worked. He hadn't gone totally broke he had enough money to go back on track all he had to do was turn the ship around that was importing his ilegal goodies. So i went to the shipping office and said that north east the ship called 68.57pps was no longer allowwed to arrive since he was importing illgeal things. That baby was turned right around.

That was a day.

Chapter 8

"That would be amazing" Holly said exstaticly.

"Well welcome to the hills. Where we say, all your dreams come true"
