So my mom end up moving my brother and sister father in when we moved from Westville, CT to West Haven, CT. I had my own room of course but they only thing I remembered was cookouts, football parties, school, riding my bike, and my room. I had to be in my room most of the time, if I wasn't outside with my friends riding bike's. I remembered putting keys in the electric socket and making the room light up. My mom came in my room running, telling at me. She said, "My who head was frizzy." I think got the most part, I remembered old school shows was my favorite. Drawing what I saw off of television, I was a dreamer. I thought people where better or act least focusing on a better world. Little did I kno the world was full of lies, manipulation, and deception. It was very normal in the house I was at in West Haven, CT. After a year later my sister was born, I remember family trips and vacations. We moved from West Haven to Hamden, CT and that's when I think I was introduce into a whole different environment🙄 The attitude, hate, and negativity from the girls was a whole other level I wasn't use too. I was going to 4th grade, I started off quiet of course to see everyone's personalities and how they move. One girl always had a attitude and actually tossed my desk one day. She end up telling me she was going to beat me up after school so I hurried home to let my mom know. I asked she what to do since she was so big on keeping my hands to myself. My mom went furious at me an said, "Those teacher ain't doing shit, since they won't do anything. The next time she starts with you, you beat her up. I give you permission." I was feeling confused, happy, nervous, excited, and ready all at the same time. Since I when she was the type to start something, I was just waiting good her to make the first move. All I had to say, "Was that I was defending myself." So when I went back to school, I felt a lot more comfortable and confident because I didn't feel like I was on pins and needles.
