I kept my cool, and got through school, regardless of this. I didn't do very well on final exams, which affected my life greatly. At age 18 I was desperatly looking for work, which I never had any contact or luck from. I managed to save some money, I got from job center to get my own place. Which I did, and failed to pay rent, so I was ultimatly forced to live with the one friend I had, his name was Mac, we knew each other from the foster home we used to share. I didn't want to feel like a burden and left, and lived homeless for a few days, then went back to foster for a couple of years, age 26, I got a job at retailer, which I was fired from today, I have worked there for a year.
