My Life

Growing up has never been easy. The real world is full of surprises one might say and fate is a crazy thing, you never know what to expect.

I never knew turning eighteen would be so complicated. Being a baby was probably the easiest part of my chapter in life. It consisted of everyone waiting on me hand and foot. No one truly understands why a baby is crying or wants the stress that comes along with the screams and tears. So after always being fed, bathed, and entertained I concluded it will never be as easy as that. Then came the chapter in my life that is a blur. My parents were getting divorced, I was moving from the place I grew up, to a place that was unfamiliar, and my world was being flipped upside down. Looking back I see that my mom was making the right choice for herself and her five kids. Life on the farm wasn't what it was cut out to be for our family. Now we have our big red brick house surrounded by the river, woods, and the fresh air that wasn't so fresh on the farm. Eventually I was in High school which flew by for me like my memories did. It consisted of waking up in class with drool on my face, dealing with a lot of unnecessary drama, and attempting to be a sneaky "text er". Don't get me wrong, I was an all A student, but I just never got the concept of why I had to go to school. I had a passion for soccer and managed a job also. Taking my aggression out on the attackers, feeling the smack of the ball against my forehead, and the rush of adrenaline i felt in my veins were just some of the many benefits that came with being out on that field. I earned the right to always be starter plus to play on Varsity as a sophomore. My job that I am currently still working at is a meat packing place. It involves waiting on customers, running errands, and yes occasionally packing meat.
