vocabulary: fall list #1
theme- the subject of a talk, a piece of writing, a person's thoughts, or an exhibition; a topic.
Since I've been little I've always wanted to have a better life than the life my family lived. So in my family I’m what you call a black sheep because I don't go do drugs I don't do what I shouldn't be. I pay attention to what my brothers and cousins do so I don't mess up like them. Also I pay attention to my dad because he's just so messed up and his life will go no where. When I grow up I will have what they don’t have such as ; a car , my own house ; money and my kids with things they need. I don't ever wanna follow my dad's steps because they just are not good steps towards life. My mom's life isn't great either. She just got out prison and is trying to get back into my brothers and sisters life.
My mom went to prison when I was in 6th grade and got out 2017 summer. My older brother who is 18 doesn't want her in his life. I personally don't know what to do I want her in my life but then at the same time shes has a bad background. I’m giving her the chance to see if she changed and she's showing me she is changing. I like that she is helping me out since i’m living with my friend.
I've been living with my friend for two months since I just couldn't deal with my dad. My dad and I always bump heads and never get along. He has absolutely no trust in me and always thinks I’m making up stories. I have problems doing my sports because of him. He is the number one person that helped me become who I am and the number one person that holds me back to becoming who I want to be. Since I've been living with my friend I’ve been stress free and been able to play my sports with no problem.
I play basketball and volleyball. I've been playing basketball since junior high school. I only played volleyball my 8th grade year. I love both sports because one it keeps me busy and two it helps me let my anger out rather than starting problems because how mad I get.
