Friends, family, or goals???


My family and friends have always come before me and the goals Ive set for my life. Well, in reality Ive always found ways to reach my goals and provide for my family and friends in different ways.

Growing up was pretty hard. My parents split when I was little, and I was living with my mom. I really didnt get to see my dad much except for every other weekend, going back to as long as I can remeber. (Well until like 5 years ago when me and my younger sister moved in with my dad full time). But anyways, my older sister practically raised me because my mom was working and stuff, so in turn I practically raised my younger sister. Beyond that when my mom hooked up and married my step-dad things got bad pretty fast. I hated being at our house. Therefore my friends became my family, super fast. I was literally crashing at my best friends' houses so often that I pretty much moved in with them. I was living out of cardboard boxes for a while. My friends became my family. They watched out for me and protected me and I actually felt safe for once when I was with them. So yeah my family (friends included) have always been my number one. I guess I feel like my goals, the ones I set on my own, will eventually work out because I set them around my other priorities. But like Ive said in a previous entry, sometimes I feel like Im putting my goals on the back burner, so to speak. But hey thats just the type of girl I am. Ive always been that way and I doubt that I will change that fact, its part of me that is so unique.
