I’ve come a long way to get to this point. If you had met me five years ago, two years ago, or about six months ago, you would never think this is how I would be now. Let’s take it back to the fifth grade; I had one friend and I never talked to anyone. That was the year I met my best friend, Alyssa. Before her and I became friends, I never talked to anyone because I was the weird kid that shied away from everyone.. I know that sounds like some sappy sob story but it’s very true. When I went to Franklin I was a very reserved and hostile person. I wanted nothing to do with anyone and that was just how things went.

Which obviously made my day to day functioning a lot harder. As far as my social life went, I didn’t hang out with anyone ever. I still don’t. I really just like to keep to myself, but I’ll admit, it does get lonely sometimes. It definitely did back then,
