Once upon a time I was an angsty teenager, OK I'm still an angsty teenager but I've gotten better, actually that's not true either most days I’m actually worse, but can you really blame me I mean I have to deal with long distance friendships and some that are way too up close and personal and some that I'd really rather not go into at the moment because they are way too complicated on top of that I have to listen to my step mom go on and on about world issues, like I give a crap about the rest of the world when I'm having to deal with my own slice of it right in my face, my dad doesn't get me either but at least he doesn't make me feel bad for being selfish, I'm a teenager I'm supposed to be selfish and self centered that whole global consciousness thing happens after, like 25 or something, you know when your real life is over and the whole "adult" thing has to take over, ok so anyway this story is about one of those times when you know stuff happens to you that you have no control over and yet you’re the one paying the price, yeah it’s one of those stories, a story about a basically good kid, that would be me, who has a lot of not so good stuff happen to her, that would also be me in case you hadn’t figured it out on your own.
