Most people, when asked this question, would not struggle with a response, but then there are people, like me, in the world who have been through too much and do not know exactly what to say because they do not know if what they write will be good enough. I know I should not struggle to write this if I have been through so much, but here I am writing this essay for the millionth time now due to overthinking my previous ones and having cried too many tears over this. Here 's to writing this one last time, hopefully.
I am a seventeen-year-old girl with no clue as to what I should be doing when it comes to life. I was born five months early; saved by multiple medical miracles. A passionate Doctor saved my life for the sake of his experiment, …show more content…

Which has brought me to where I am today in a small little city named Harlingen,
