I Never Left Home Before

May 2, 2012
Im a bit nervous about leaving home.  I’ve never been outside the United States before, unless you count Canada.  It’s not like I’m leaving much behind, though.  My parents were killed in a boating accident when I was nine.  My uncle Calvin and Aunt Priscilla took me in on their farm, and I didn’t exactly “feel the love,” I should say.  He never beat me, but he shook and pushed me.  And she looked the other way.  Nope, I won’t be missing the two of them, but I will miss the horses.  And my dogs.  And Melinda and Jack from the stables.  Other than that, I don't really have many friends.

  1. Why don't you count Canada, lol! Sorry about your parents. Mine died too when I was a kid (I was 12). So I know. You were more fortunate than I was, because you had relatives take you in. Maybe getting away is the best thing for you.
