I participated in the camp for several years‚ but as I got older‚ I wanted the summers to play sports and socialize with my friends. So I stopped going.

On February 9th‚2016‚ I was told that I would be expecting my first child. The moment was surreal for me. I never expected to be in a situation as such as a sophomore in college.

I began to realize I wouldn’t have the fairytale pregnancy that every girl dreams of. I did not have the supportive partner that everyone needs in a situation such as this. As a sophomore in college‚ I could

A façade on my face that hid a dark‚ a pain and nightmares filled‚ black hole that was killing me in the inside‚ one day just cracked and the demons of self harming and suicide broke loose in my room. I grabbed a sharp object‚ went to the end of my bed‚ slashed my flesh‚ believing the drained red blood released from my body and dropped was the trauma that came from constant family issues and school bullying. I was a vulnerable mouse trying to run away from the pernicious black cat who had me by the

However‚ by the time I became a junior‚ the daily life that I had lived routinely suddenly began to change. With the recent news about racial violence‚ such as the deaths of Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown‚ I started to feel

School of Rock. Seeing those words on my calendar made me dread the weeks to come. My parents had signed me up for an activity‚ once again‚ without asking my opinion first. My friends would be going‚ but that didn’t make it sound better. I would be put in a band with people I didn’t know. I’d always left being outgoing and meeting new people for my friends to take care of‚ but this week it seemed to be on my to-do list. My idea of the next two weeks was a monotonous‚ dreary prison.

I have never been the kind of person that knows what they are supposed to be. While that is certainly not a unique condition‚ I have felt at times that my uncertainty was to an almost comical degree. As a kid‚ I tried dozens of sports and was successful at approximately zero of them. In an effort to get me to do something‚ my parents put me in art classes‚ science camps‚ sports leagues‚ and other kinds of activities we could barely afford‚ but none of them stuck. With little exaggeration‚ I feel
