One October Night
One thing you 'd never know about me is how much trauma I 've experienced in my past. When I 'm around others I am a happy person almost always smiling but there are people who have seen the real side of me, these people being my closest friends and family. Let me tell you about the events that would change my life forever.
It all began in the year 2014. I didn 't know it then but this would be the start of a huge change. My step sister had just moved back into the house and she was so rude and ungrateful towards everyone especially my mom. My mom tried to be kind to her but it got to a point where she couldn 't handle her and neither could I.

I have the best friends in the world and they are always there for me, but now I can no longer call and say walk over to my house for dinner. Now I have to book a flight anytime I want to see them and my dad rarely lets me miss school, meaning I barely get to see them. I will never get to experience prom with all of them. The worst thing I`ll be missing is huge for me and that 's the fact that I won 't get to walk across the graduation stage with all of my friends. We have all worked so hard together and they get to celebrate together while I 'm 1180 miles away from them. Moving to Florida was one of the worst decisions of my life and if I could go back I

    The Way It Haunted Me People say that good things always come in pairs, but what about bad things too? My parents, sister and I decided to visit Cedar Point during what I like to call a dark fall. The days were hazy and honeyed, and cinnamon and pomegranate aroma filled the air. The skies were always awake and illuminated with the never-ending thunderstorms, and murky rains; the scattered leaves were luminescent in their yellows, reds, and purples as if they forgot they were about to die.…

    All 17 years of my life i have known and dealt with my step moms shenanigans,( i.e. making me watch birthing videos, telling me about her and her back problems as well as strip club night at the nursing home) and dealing with such shenanigans has made me a stronger, more independent, quick witted person. She has taught me that,at points it 's okay to be a little crazy, but, she also showed me that sometimes there is such thing of being too crazy. I guess, my step monster isn 't as bad as I tend to look at her and in all reality, I really do appreciate her and her role in my upbringing, but, do not get me started on my toothless aunt…
