I am Thora Annelies Sayer and when I was three years old I moved to America from Germany.  We moved and I grew up in Madison, Wisconsin.  My mother did not know English when we first moved to the "promised land".  Although the states brought good fortune and happiness to my great great grandparents and many aunts and uncles, all that was brought to us in this land of opportunity was hardship and pain.  My mother picked up English fairly quickly by the time I was put into preschool, therefore making her eligible to apply for a job.  For the last twelve years she has been applying and reapplying to no avail.  Though it wasn't always work that brought the troubles to our family, it was a death we were unable to attend the funeral for in Germany, it was myself or my brother losing something important for our school work, it was not having the funds to afford a healthy meal that night.  Through all these plights it was the old Germanic legends and fables that kept our spirits high. 

My sophomore year in high school is when I fell deeply in love, call me a fool, you cannot hurt me further than what happened to him already has.  Lukas was amazing, he was full of life and light.  He would help anyone who needed it and he loved people dearly. He should not have been the one to die. I am. He had the greater odds in that crash and I walked out unscathed. I don't know how I survived the crash. My life was turned upside down and inside out. As you could expect my grades plummeted and my social life hit rock bottom.
