Tremendously talented. Stunningly beautiful. Wildly gifted. And, they're kids hardly older than she is. Jordan feels doomed to a life wallowing around somewhere in that vast, soggy middle. So, she makes a goal: by the end of the year, she will discover her great talent in life. By the end of the year, she will no longer be average. She will find a way to become extraordinary, and everyone will know about it!
