I grew up in three different states, changing schools and environments often, as well as homes. My mother was a drug-addict and at the time I did not know my father was even alive, from the age of 6 to the age of 14 I was bouncing around the foster system. Luckily I was adopted by a very kind elderly couple who began to teach me how to live a healthy and happy life. I am now doing pretty well compared to my and my parents pasts. I am graduating from an independent charter school within a couple months and moving up to Alaska to go to college for an Anthropology major.
