So, here's the deal, I was 12 years old raising two kids while my mom was off getting drunk and passing out at God only knows where. I hated my child hood, well not like I ever got much of one what with the divorce at age 6 and the battles over custody ever since. I couldn't wait to grow up, to get out.
I thought I had finally found the perfect guy, man was I wrong.
So, I've come to the conclusion that politicians are greedy and selfish. Okay, I've always known that but now more than ever. Since tomorrow is Indiana's primary the candidates have been focusing a lot of attention here and making it seem like they really care about the constituencies, but they don't. They just want the votes. How do I know?
So I feel like I've been gone for a while and there are a few things I need to share.
First to politics...
I don't know if any of you know or have ever heard of Brandon Cosby but he's an amazing man...look up his work...well
Am I a terrible person? Today marks 9 months since the last time I've spoken to my mother. She calls every week but I just choose not to talk to her. I mean, why should I?
Our prom was last night, and while there I realized something. America is obsessed with sex. Now I mean I've known that for a long time, but not the extent I saw last night. I know it's prom and things are going to get a bit out of hand, but seriously this was dangerous.
I grew up living in an upper-middle class neighborhood. Sure we went through rough times, like when I lived with my mom, but who doesn't. In fact I still live in an upper-middle class neighborhood. I'm going to a private school next year with quite the price tag, I have all the name brand clothes and purses and shoes I could ask for, and my family goes out to eat quite often.
I have older siblings, so I know how things were after they turned 18...not much different from when they were 17. So that's basically what I thought would happen after I turned 18 at the beginning of the year. Man was i wrong.
