Hello. My name Is Rosie. Rosie Clayton. My life has been a rocky road. But at least I can say I lived to tell the tale. At one point in my life everything was going how most people wanted it a normal life to go. I had friends, family, a relationship, and a job. I was stable, at least as stable as I could be. Things turned upside down fast. I went on a decline to almost death. I pushed everyone out of my life and started over. No house, no friends, no family, no job, I had nothing to my name. It's when I started life over.

With starting over comes a whole new you. I was formerly known as Ashley Rose Clayton. My best friend since the age of 6 or 17 give me the nickname of Rosie and it stuck. I legally had my named changed as I started my life over. I may have pushed him and all that he had made me to be out of my life, but I was forever going to be Rosie Clayton.

I used to be an artist and a creator. I lived under the shadows of 7 amazing people. Mini, Behzy, Joshy, Vikk, JJ, Harold, and Tobi to be the exact people. They allowed me to have an amazing 5 years. We all were losing ourselves within our friendship. Things were changing mostly us as people, and it just wasn't something we all needed anymore. I took the time and decided to make a change.

As Rosie Clayton I found myself a new job a few after a few days of sleeping on the streets of London. It was at a cute coffee shop. It was actually the first place I had ever entered when I moved home, to the UK. I made friendships awhile I was living on my own, as I started my life over. Darby and Veta worked with me at the coffee shop. They let me move in with them since they shared a flat. I was living off a couch but I didn't mind.

We would go to work and act like normal girls in their twenties. I had finally learned for the first time in my life to live like a normal person. I was either struggling or carried by someone, I was never comfortable. Until I met these 2 girls. We were pretty much attached at the hip at all times, we were the best of friends. It was something like I had once shared with Mini. It was a friendship that people live for and try to achieve and somehow I was able to encounter such a friendship after losing one.

Life felt easy. I could enjoy every day without worrying about hurting another person. I didn't have to rely on someone else. I was never someone's second choice. There was no more drama. I didn't have to worry about fighting with anyone. I was able to find myself and be myself. It was something I had strived to find for 24 years.

But life is forever changing. When you find yourself it's time to start your life. It's time for a real relationship. It's time for the rest of your life to begin. True love, children, marriage, goals, dreams, aspirations, begins the day you find yourself. It gives adventure to your life. After spending 2 years finding myself I was ready to start my life and find and do all these things I had dreamed of doing 2 years earlier.
