One very beautiful, clear night, a girl named Kayla and her mother were talking and looking up in the sky at the stars. Kayla said, "Mom I hate how I look. My hair is so ugly; there's never anything to do with it. And my clothes - they're awful!"

"Well Kayla you need to accept who you are and like it," said Kayla's mother.

Just then a shooting star past. Kayla saw it and wished that she was a superstar like Christina Aguilera.

After Kayla said her wish, her mother said, "Time for bed."

The very next morning Kayla woke up to a man she has never met in her whole life. The man kept telling her, "Wake up! Wake up! You need to start early today if you want to sing well in your concert tonight!!!"

Then Kayla said, "What? What concert?"

Then it just hit her; she had wished on the star and it came true! Then Kalya looked in the mirror and it was Christina Aguilera's face staring back at her. She jumped up and said, "Where is everyone aren't they supposed to be getting all my make-up and hair ready for me?"

"Of course," said the man. "They have been waiting for you to get up all morning."

"Well where are they?"

"Christina are you feeling good you are acting like someone else."

"Oh yeah, I am fine." said Kayla.

Finally Kayla got up and started getting all dressed up and ready for the big night. When she was done, she had to go to practice for the concert that night.

Kayla was having blast until she got to rehearsal. First, she had a hard time getting to rehearsals because of so many annoying people with cameras were shouting at her and telling her how great it must be to be a superstar. Then at rehearsals she had a hard time getting the dancing moves right. It was a total disaster.

She was just beginning to realize that being a superstar wasn't so awesome after all when it was time to go on stage in front of everyone. She didn't know what to do, so she thought fast and looked in the sky and didn't see any shooting star. At that moment the man who woke her up this morning said, "You go on in 5, 4,3,2,1. You're on!"

Kayla walked out on stage did know what to do so she started talking to the crowd. She started to talk to them about being yourself keeping goals and NEVER wishing you were someone else because everyone is perfect in their own way.

At that moment, she saw a shooting star and wished she was in her own home, her own clothes, and her own life! Suddenly, she was on her porch with her mom talking and looking up in the beautiful sky with the stars shinning bright!
