I have had many things happen in my life that should never happen to any high school student. First off, during my eighth grade year and freshman year I had just overcome a transition from being sent away from my mother to living with my father and his newly wed wife. On top of that awful circumstance, my father and step mom were both laid off from their jobs in Washington D.C. and were homeless. Luckily my dad cashed out his 401k and was able to live off that for a few months but it was still a struggle for me to get to school and had a lot of social problems going on at my new school and not having a permanent place to live yet. After running out of money, we ended up having a very odd situation and lived in my step-mom's ex husband's house
