college acceptance
Over the past year, everything in my life has completely changed. The ways that I think, react, and live now are totally different. As I was growing up, my father would physically abuse my mother and me. The situation I was in cost me many things in my life, but in retrospect I have gained more than I have lost. Six months ago I had hit rock bottom. It was the end of my senior year and I had just run away from my abusive home for the fourteenth or fifteenth time. I was at a payphone, going to call one of my friends to come pick me up and as I was catching my breath, I couldn’t think of anyone to call. My life had been totally cut off because of all the wrong decisions that I was making. It was like I had flashbacks of scenes through the last four years of my life and I saw how I was reacting to situations, and saw how everything I did was only fixing things in the short term. I came to accept what had happened to me in my past and I decided to move forward towards a better future. Fi
