************************************

A story about a young girl's life, and how she found comfort in drinking, sex, and drugs. Having no family, and barely any friends, she walks the world alone. Half of her wants a better life for herself, deep down inside. She never admits it because she barely gets that spark, but when she does it's amazing, she just doesn't know what she's good at. But the other half of her feels like she'll never be anything in life, that she'll be just how her mom was, trapped and helpless in this lifestyle. Will she ever get out of this addiction? Or will she continue to let herself suffer in the life she's been used too since she was born? Her addiction isn't just her drug, her addiction is the lifestyle she's living, and everyone knows breaking addictions aren't easy.

************************************

"Your name is Ocean?"

"Yeah, why?"

"That's so... unique?"

"Yeah my mom wasn't creative, she probably wasn't even sober when I was born. She was most likely high off of everything possible. That explains me, right? Look at me."
