So, at the ripe age of 4 months old my parents split up and growing up I didn't realize that wasn't normal. It took me until 1st grade to realize that not seeing your dad ever wasn't normal. For a while it hurt not ever knowing why my dad wasn't in my life.

When I was 11 (I think) for a very brief time I had a therapist. However after a few sessions she moved away without telling me or my family. This really changed a lot in my life since I now need a therapist more than ever, however my mom refuses to get me a therapist because my old one left. This also caused me to emotionally shut off for a while, I still struggle with that.

A couple years ago (I don't remember exactly when) I went to the Georgia Aquarium. While I don't remember it well, I do remember seeing penguins marching and something about it to this day makes me happy. It's just a happy memory I like to look back on.

While I barely remember Disney world , I do remember how I felt like it was over hyped. But the biggest thing I remember was seeing the solar eclipse since during our visit, the eclipse was happening and some nice woman gave me her solar glasses so I could see.

5 years ago now I met my best friend / father figure. I wouldn't be where I am today without him as he's helped me through every single life event I've been through (even the ones he wasn't there to see with me). He's been an amazing support for me and is genuinely the greatest person I've met.

I might have only been in Velocity for one year (8th grade) but hands down it was the best year of my life. As a matter of fact it was the only year of school I actually did well in. I don't know what the difference was but every single day in Velocity I felt like I was walking into a family home. I still love Velocity and I still strive to make my old teachers proud.

I found out the reason (or the nail in the coffin for) my parents split was because of the fact when I was 4 (ish) months old, my dad nearly suffocated me while he was drunk. When I found this out it really changed my view on things since this topic was always danced around whenever I tried to bring it up, however after finding this out I've really started to realize that there really isn't any excuse for him.

Nearly 2 years ago I found / met my OTHER best friend. He's been an amazing support for me and has seen me at my worst and helped pick me up after everything I've been through. He gives me life advice and helps me whenever I need it, he's a major support in my life and I'm glad I have him around.

Sophomore year (arguably) was one of the worst years of my entire school career. I racked over 140 absences, which were the result of me skipping. While I was going through a lot (still am), I'm deeply suffering the consequences from me missing so many classes. While freshman year wasn't any better, I barely tried at all in Sophomore year.

Ever since I was born I've had my cat, he was born a few months before me and our family has always had him. Then when I was a little kid we took him into our house and he lived there for the rest of his life. He was my best friend growing up and he got me through everything up until his passing.
