*******ATTENTION!!: I've decided that *eventually* i'll be COMPLETELY overhauling this story and making it into an actual story (you know the kind.. with dialogue and characters and feelings and such.. lol), instead of its current "In your face, here it is, this is what happened" type of story that it is currently. I'm *thinking* that i'll begin *most likely* when "Downfall of the 'It Girl' that i'm currently working on is finished. I have enough trouble keeping up with 2 stories at a time, no way could i manage 3 at a time lol. Thanks! much <3! =)********* The true story of becoming pregnant at 17 and having my son at 18 and all the hardships of a single mom, and teen pregnancy. No glitz or glamor here.
