Well where do I start...
I am 18, birth date of 15th of january 1995.
I was raised from a household of; my mom her partner, 3 sisters and 1 brother, in Dudley, Westmidlands.
My brother and 2 of the 3 sisters had a different dad to me. The other sister is my full blood sister. I also have 2 other sisters from my dads side. I didn't really have much to so with my dad as my mom stopped most contact and due to the fact he was an alcoholic.
I was put into care at the age of 14 as the family said the couldn't cope with me..
Never really got it until now as I am maturing into a man. As a result of being in care I was exposed to a lot of drugs, alcohol, gangs and the over all messed up care system. As a result of that I am in the process of 'altering' myself, recognise I use the word alter instead on change. As to change you become something different, I am still being 'Myself' but am altering the things that the care system implemented on me. And as a result altered my inner self.
I have been there and done that, I DON'T WANT TO ANYMORE.
That is the reason I want to be a social worker, so that I can show these kids 'the street life' isn't worth it. But at the end of the day deep down I am a 'street thug' but that is a result of my upbringing and it will always be apart of me. But I don't want to live that life anymore, that's why I am studying to be a social worker so I can hopefully 'change' the so called ' care system' I grew up in.
Apart from all that, I love reading, going for walks in the country side, gardening, spending time with my friends, fishing, watching romantic films, cuddles and a good old brew :)
