PROLOGUE
 Everyone called me girly. Even if I grew a fairly small beard I still get carded. Let’s face it. College sucks. But still, I manage to put a smile on my face. Even when people think I’m okay. Because it’s pointless talking about it. Wouldn’t it just be easier if the whole world accepted me? No. Because people forget I'm not the only with one problems, they do too. I’m not confident. I can be. I pretend to be. But I’m not. Don’t get me wrong, college can be fun if you go to the right places. But it sucks when get evicted from your own damn apartment. Yeah.. that’s when my whole world got flipped. 
It’s been two months. I wasn’t smart enough to save some money and put it aside for any emergencies. It doesn’t work like that. I could ask my parents but I don’t want to be any more of a disappointment to them. It’s not easy to live in your own car, ask your friends to sleep over just for an excuse to shower and eat. 

FEEDBACK
Let me know what you guys think! This is the first time writing in First Person point of view. So it's a little awkward for me to be in the character's point and move the plot at the same time. I might eventually change it to Second Person with more than one character's point of view. I know some books make that possible. 
This was inspired by a little imagination I had the other day of a homeless homosexual college guy. And it was just too good to keep it in the back of my head. And I didn't know how else to portray the character other than being in his thoughts. 
I'm thinking of making it a full book with chapters so this will be ongoing! Also.. I'd love to see what you guys think of the cover of the book as well (;
