Who’s in My Corner?

These are my besties, ace boon coons, and my day ones! I would say best friends but whenever I use the formal version I never seem to keep them as my best friend. This group, however, are a bunch of mixed up kids who just love having a good time with each other. I couldn’t imagine getting through a day without trying to reach out to them at least once per day. Just send out a phone call or text asking if they are okay, and letting them know that I’m here if they ever need me. Even if we didn’t speak for months, when we come back it’s like we became better friends. That’s how I know that it was truly a match made in heaven—or whatever afterlife someone might believe in. Unlike acquaintances, it’s never a dull day with the people from this group. From putting cupcakes on cars to going to the lake and lying on a blanket, it’s always exhilarating being with

    At a younger age, I would say I believed that I can only trust myself and my mother, this is because as a little kid my mom would always tell me that there are bad people in the world and that giving them any information about anything can be very harmful. But as I grew up and realized what was actually happening in my country I knew there were millions of others that were suffering against the “bad people” and we could only do something about it if the whole community came together to help. It was at that time when I was about 25, when I started to put some effort into trying to establish more just conditions within my country especially after the implication of extremely high food prices. This is when I started my first strike involving my…
