    I was not the best student in school until about now. I would do some assignments in third grade but my normal was to sit around and wait for the day to end.

    Around fifth grade my brother began to live with us in the apartment (picture) and it was pretty terrible. I was able to learn a lot from him through those experiences and having him around was the begging of how i learned to absorb pain. Most days i wouldn't stay in my house for long.

    My step dad was no doubt a hard experience in my life. For the longest time i had wished for some kind of father figure because i thought it would be the solution to some sense of normality.

    Freshman year
    When I began high school I was in a larger group than the amount of people i normally hang around. In eighth grade a lot of the boys i hung around with had already known each other but everyone merged in high school. At the end of second quarter Two of my friends and i split off and I became the one who kinda hung around like a third wheel. Before Thanksgiving break I had met a certain girl in one of my classes so i'd talk to her occasionally until we started dating before Christmas break.

    Sophomore Year
    Sophomore year my two friends had a falling out and stopped talking to each other. One had returned to the old group we were in before, the other started meeting with a few other friends we knew from before. I would freelance between the groups by different days but would eventually just stay with a new group that formed through everything from before. There were a couple of Freshman I would speak with on certain days as well, mostly during the middle of everything that was happening.

  • Allergies

    Allergies
    I was already very upset at the way the school i was attending operated and had a few issues with some of the staff but i hadn't had a real reason to leave. However at the start of the third quarter I got really sick from allergies which have always affected me badly. But for some reason this year it was the worst it'd been. I had a trip to the hospital where I had an IV in my arm for the first time and most days i wouldn't go to school because my sinus would begin.
