h to get me into UCLA, or enough to get me into UT without going through provisionals. So I decided, to waste a summer of seeing friends before we all left for school by not going to Austin after graduation and going to provisional. So I decided to move to Austin, and go to community college in the fall. This way I could be with some of my good friends, and go to school away from home. This was ideal for me, live in a dorm, and get some college under my belt. This way I would be more prepared to transfer into UT. So I came here, with hopes of getting some good grades, and meeting tons of people. Now, why did I really pick Austin? Well, I had to get away from a really bad situation, his name is Baird. He was the love of my life, and he had me completely hooked on drugs my senior year. This would be another reason, for my grades to be awful, my senior year. I knew I had to get away from him, or else I was going to be a nobody. I wanted to get away, and yes I ran. I told absolutely no one where I was going. Only my best friend Sally knew. As far as everyone else is concerned I am in Colorado. I had to get away from this guy, he had me under control, and he never loved me like I loved him. I thought he was the one I was going to marry, but I know now that I was wrong. He is a user, and he used me for money. I spent so much money on drugs for us to use, and I stole from my family in order to get my drug of choice, cocaine. Over time, my friends stopped hanging out with me, and I got some of my good friends hooked on the drug in the mean time. I felt so bad; I ruined my life as well as others. But I was able to kick the habit on my own and get away from the craziness that was my life. I partied hard, and I discovered, that I wasn’t being true to my self. So I am glad that I aMy crazy high school life was not the only reason I came to Austin. I needed to get some experience; I have never been in a class or interacted with any minorities...
