Walking the overgrown paths in the expansive woods behind my house, I tried again to escape the claustrophobia of the cul-de-sac and the boredom of a small town. The forest was my sanctuary, and I walked knowing every rock, root, and bush. Then suddenly, it was different. My eyes hit the familiar clearing ahead, and I launched into a sprint through the underbrush, leaping up and over the barbed wire-topped rock wall. Landing with a whoop of delight, I eyed the novelty, a huge, brown steer, staring back at me. Molten joy turned to icy fear, and the steer began to charge. Thirty seconds of terror later, I noticed two things as I heaved against a maple tree: my now dung-covered shoes were ruined, and my curiosity was finally piqued.

Through the rattling trees, my bloody eyes exploded, my body trembled and my lips grew dry.

When I was about 17 years old I got kicked out of my parents for the first time, I was living from house to house. I would be either staying over my friends or a family/cousins house. I stopped going to school by that time, It was hard for me to stay on track and keep up with homework since I wasn't staying in my own home and not being able to have my own privacy to do my homework, so I dropped out of school.
