ever since my family moved tto arizona i could never reallly figure out where i belonged. went to a school where if you were different you were weird but even to the weirdest of my classmates i was weird/ strange. over time i came to hide part of who i was and who i am, but now these last couple of years have been great i reconnected with some old family friends who accept me no matter what and this year especially has been fun. for the first time in a long time i can finally be me and i do have my firend gen who started out has a co-worker and is now one of my best friends and the person who introduced me to a community that i didn't know existed. introduced me to others who are like myself, weird but good people who actually care and arent afraid to be themselves. since coming into the community i have started to find and to re-embrace a part of myself that i thought had been lost forever. i truelly am happy again and hope to keep finding new and adventures and mischief to get into with my friends by my side.
