First Blog Post Ever!!

Yep...This is my first blog post. I am not exactly sure what to write about, seeing as this is my first, so I'll just say some things about my life.

I go to a school that we call MVHS. I am a sophomore, and I am semi-smart. This semester, my classes are English, World History, Chorus (every other day), Study Hall (every other day), and Geometry in order. I took World History last year, but I sort of failed by 3 points. However, let me just point out that the grading system in my school really sucks. You have to get at least a 70 to get a D. I know. DUMB!! I am doing a lot better this year. I have 2 A's, 1 B and 1 C as of now. I wish there were grades for Study Hall...But then again, I would probably get a D, and that would look bad on my transcripts...

I have had a hard life so far. it is not all bad, but it has been petty tough. I was only one year old when my parents separated. My older brother, Josh, and I lived with my mom until I was about 5, and then we had to move in with my father because my mom had to go into alcoholic rehab. When I was half way through third grade, my dad told me that I had the choice of moving, my brother said no and I said yes. However, he warned me that their was something wrong with my mom. When I first saw her, I cried. She now had scoliosis. She was living with her boyfriend and I moved in. I had a tough time in middle school because I was the biggest girl in my class. Everyone always picked on me for being "fat". I was terrorized all through elementary school.

On the summer after I graduated elementary school, my mother told me that my now step-father kicked us out. With no options, we moved up to N.H. with my aunt. I started school 3 weeks late. My middle school life was a lot like everyone else's, except with a little bit more lies and pain than others. In my freashman year of high school, I heard the most depressing news of my life. My mother got lung cancer. I spent the next 6 months caring for her as much as possible. On February fifteenth, my mom died. I had a series of breakdowns at school, and a few of my friends got sick of me. Towards the end of the year, I started to return to normal, but the pain will never go away. Also, my grandfather passed away on July tenth, so this has been a tough year for me, but thanks to the support of my friends, I have made it through.

OK...This is getting kind of long, so I guess I'll end for now. I will be giving you updates at least once a week, so be sure to check it out!!
