I am an underpriviledged teenager and at the age of 17 live like I am from the 1950's or 60's. I live in the slumy part of town but, have a happy life. Considering I am a girl is it weird I never want to leave this place?
A day in my life:
I wake up to a bell alarmclock (old fashioned)
I walk to school 2 and 1/2 miles away
I am in the smart class and make A's
I am made fun of because I don't want or have a cell phone, ipod, or popular clothes
After school a group of 8 of my close friends (a gang type) meet in the parking lot
There is only 2 girls in the group (includiing me) and the rest are boys
We walk home and I do my homework
after we meet at a local gas station, go to the park, or watch a movie
We usually steal from stores for cigarettes and beer
we are nice decent people just poor
our parents don't really care about what we do
we then go home at 11-2 and go to sleep
the odd thing is I want to graduate then live in this neighborhood the rest of my life
Odd?
