Tired of being poor.

I love my parents. Just thought I'd get that out there before I started.

When we lived in Miami, OK. I never thought of us as poor, middle class, or any of that junk. I just thought we lived the way regular people did, just with a little more restrictions, which I was okay with. It was easier times. Then we moved to a big school, where some people were poor, some middle class, and most REALLY well off.


That's when I realized that we didn't have much money. We moved into a home improvement project, that to this day (4-5 yrs later) are still not done. Why aren't they done? Because, we don't have the money to fix them, and my dad is a truck driver...so he's not home much to even bother. Thank goodness for college!



I am so glad that I'm in college and trying to succeed. I'm going to have an actual career! I'm going to make money and be independent! Which is what my parents want...and what parent wouldn't want that for their kids??
