Desperately lonely at only 17 years old may not be normal, but so many things had happened in my life to make me feel like my world was crashing down. Growing up poor had never been easy, but somehow I managed to live my life around it. My mother, a single mother of four, was struggling to make ends meet working at our local McDonalds. I was the oldest and just a year before had all the hopes and dreams of any normal 16 year old girl. I was moderately attractive and at times, perky and outgoing. Always striving to do my best, I managed to squeeze out some pretty good grades. I took college prep classes in the hopes of someday being a nurse.
十七岁就感觉孤独无望也许并不常见,但在我生命里发生的很多事使我感到我的世界正在倒塌。自幼生活在贫苦当中是不容易的,但无论如何我还是走了过来。作为四个孩子的单亲妈妈,母亲在我们当地的麦当劳餐馆工作,艰难地维持着基本生活。我是最大的孩子。就在一年前,像其他所有普通的十六岁女孩一样,我对生活充满希冀和梦想。我长得算是迷人,有时还挺自信和外向的。我总是尽自己最大努力去拼搏,成绩也算不俗。我报读了大学预科班,希望将来成为一名护士。
