Hi I'm alex.
My full name is Alexis Roxanne Braxton.
I'm 16, and in 2 weeks it's my birthday.
I've been moved alot with in the past 6 years. My dad was abusive and my mom never stood up for me.
At the age of 5, My mom finally stood up for me when my father tried molesting me.
She was so pissed, and she wouldn't let it happen.
So she stood up for me, and he started beating her.
The neighbors could hear me scream for help as she was being strangled, so they called the cops and they showed up quickly.
Thing was....they showed up a bit to late.
He strangled her to death, and I had ran outside.
So the cops showed up and he went to jail.
Then I was sent to my aunt, who died when I was 9.
So I was put in foster care, and I've been there since.
I'm 16 and I'm in foster care, I've moved so many states and countries back and fourth and so many places.
More than I count.
I'm not sure why I keep getting sent places, but all I know is soon.....i get to leave. One more year and 2 weeks.
I'll be 18.
I can't wait to leave.
In fact, I'm moving right now.
I'm on a plane to Ohio.
I'm heading to the next foster care.
They say they have a room for me, so hopefully it's my style.
If not, its okie because I got extra paint from the last few moves.

I wake up about 20 minutes before I get off the plane. So I start waking up fully. After I wake up, I just sit there for the next 10 minutes listening to Asking Alexandria and eating tiny peanuts with my water. I love plane food, better than the foster cares food. Lately I've been able to leave when I want and I can get food. Yes I get money as well. The old foster care was nice. I enjoyed it there. Ah...im gonna miss it.

((10 MINUTES LATER))

I get off the plane and start looking for my bag.
I see it, so I grab it and turn to run outside, but as I take off I run into someone.

"Ahh!" I hear someone scream as we both tumble to the ground.
It sounded like a boy.....
