this is a good time killer, great thread
edit: wow that took longer than i thought, kept getting distracted by my girlfriend. but i tried not to write a book but im kind of old i guess, i turn 28 this year
childhood: my earliest memory is my grandma had taken me to disneyworld in Florida and when i came home, i had a little sister. i was like 3 but i always remembered my mom and dad stressing how important it was that i look after her. i definitely have been a good big brother. i was like 6 maybe and my mom was taking us to daycare and this grocery store truck hit us and totaled our car. i just remember reaching over and grabbing my sister under my arms. one time we were walking home from elementary school. there was this pitbull that would try to rip through this wooden fence of this house we walked passed. one day it broke out and charged us, my sister had fell, it jumped at her and i just remember grabbing its head a turning it. i snapped its neck but i wasnt intentionally trying too. i was good at school till division hit in math, that was a wrap, struggled with math throughout my school years....my parents had got a divorce when i was like 10 maybe. they argued all the time, i remember when i was like maybe 4 or 5 they were like wrestling each other and my dad threw my mom across my mattress and messed my bed up. me and my sister had friend we would hang out with, they came from a really messed up home. one day i saw the grandpa like grab one of the kids and body slam him. i was always fighting with that kid but looking back on it, his mom had died. i remember one halloween, i had like a pimp costume. he was hating and i said something like, "your mom is one of my ho's" and he punched me in the eye and we started fighting. later i find out his mom actually was a crack ***** before she died. i never got the chance to apologize for that because my parents broke up and we moved...his sisters like me though, idk if like the grandpa was like a pedophile or something. but they had ideas to do stuff with me that no kids should be doing at our age, i didnt even hit puberty yet and one of them was like licking on my dick. how we should know how to do that? i thought when i was older. but that grandpa was sketchy and they were all afraid of him. oh also every thanksgiving all of my family on my moms side would go to my great grandmas house, those were the funnest times and we got super close
preteens: me my mom and my sister moved too this apartment complex, it was actually pretty nice. we got a cat and sometimes my dad would pick me and my sister up on the weekend. but that stopped after a while....though i met my first best friend. we would play like video games and yugioh cards together, he introduced me to anime outside of like saturday morning cartoons, walked to school together everyday and hung out after school, he was like an older brother. at the middle school i went too, he was a year older so i had three friends i always hung out with. i started realizing like a lot of girls had crushes on me. i didnt really know what to do though, like the most developed girl physically in our grade, like me and wanted to share lockers and write notes in class, definitely got haters from that. also this girl in our neighborhood was like trying to have *** with me and i was too young, i had no clue what to do and luckily got saved by my sisters bus coming, which i had to pick her up from. but mostly i was playing video games with my best friend, watching anime, he had showed me the first porn id ever seen that he got from his step dad. there was this chinese shop that had the fake yugioh cards that looked real, we would buy them and sell them at this card shop, the most we each walked out with was $100. use to hang out at this GameCrazy store and talk to the staff, i thought they were so cool to play video games all day lol. i remember one time my friend dropped his glasses down the sewer drain at this spot where would would practice sword fighting with like poles and shit. we went into the sewer system with boots and flashlights and traveled for like an hour till we found the spot where dropped his glasses, it was straightforward like we thought. one time we tried stealing pokemon cards from the wal-mart across the street. we got caught and got banned from wal-mart. i had snuck out so when my mom found out, i was suppose to be watching my sister while she went to night school. she started freaking out that she couldnt trust me, next thing i know shes getting married to this dude fresh out of prison who was an alcoholic. he was actually a good person, just when he was drunk he was obnoxious, playing music all loud when we tried to sleep. just loud in general
teens pt1: we had moved from the complex i was in, surprisingly at the same time my best friend and his mom decided to move into a house in the opposite direction. i was sad but we kept in touch and we got driven to each others houses every now and then. my great grandma whose house we went too on thanksgiving had died and we moved into her house, which was straight up in the hood. like we had prostitutes on the corner across the street and trap houses and junkies walking around. so i mostly stayed inside unlike when we were at the apartment. one day i remember i had a bad headache, i slept all day on a saturday and when i woke upi was looking down at my mom and he mouth dropped. i was suddenly tall and lankey. i started school, that school was mad ghetto and it was getting shut down, so none of the teachers cared, we basically just chilled all day and cracked jokes in class. i was the new tall kid and couple cute girls liked me. i had made friends with this kid that lived up the street, he wasnt a good friend like my other, i had actually found out that he was drunk a lot, sneaking into his parents liquor. i figured since i was tall i should start playing basketball so i started practicing and playing at this school up the street. once that school closed down, i got transferred to this school that looked like a college, except it was super ghetto, the cool thing was this kid i knew from elementary school as a child, went to school there. but he had join The Bloods gang but he was like my main friend. but that school was hood damn, like we ate hamburger everyday for lunch, i saw a teacher fight a kid who was making fun of his mom that just died. this kid on the basketball team didnt like me for some reason and tried to start bullying me
i was talking to this girl in gym class, the teacher told us to be quite and he walked up and slapped me in the back of the head infront of everybody and they started laughing before the teacher kicked him out. then when i saw him in the hallway he shoulder bumped me. so i grabbed him and threw him into a locker, banged his head against it, then we started throwing punches before it got broken up. i got suspended and my friend who was in The Bloods heard about the fight and set me up in this surprise jump in, i just ran home, which he made fun of me a bit when i saw him but he forgot about it. my mom and step dad were having issues with his alcoholism and him finding a job, he ended up going to jail because he was driving without a license. my mom lost her job and she saw that as a chance to move to Texas with my aunt. this girl i was liked told me she liked me on my last day there smh. but the worst was this girl i use to walk home from school with, she missed school a lot and for our age had a lot of stories of stuff 12-13 year olds dont do. she was troubled and beautiful but she liked me a lot and i jokingly slapped her one day, she got mad a ignored me the whole way to the bus. i never saw her again, for months, she never came back to school....i still feel bad about that
teens pt2: we get to texas, its hot as **** and the humidity smelled like wet dog from the dry mountain air i was use to all my life. we lived with my aunt, uncle and three cousins till my mom was able to get her own place. that was a really fun time bonding with them, they lived in the nicest neighborhood i ever lived in and the middle school i finished my last year in, was pretty good. apparently i was advanced what i was learning in the hood, which was funny but school was mad easy. it was a great period. i went into high school and found out i wasnt really that great at basketball and i couldnt pass algerbra so i got kicked off the team. i found my second best friend, he was like a skater kid always sleeping in class. we both failed math and had to redo it where we bonded and he introduced me to his group of friends. with him i started trying all kinds of drugs. mainly weed but LSD, mushrooms, ecstasy. started getting heavily into all kinds of music, which made me want to learn guitar, which then i wanted to sing while playing. i played the talent show with one of my friends who played the drums and apparently did good. then i posted a cover of me singing "Where did you sleep last night" by Nirvana which went slightly viral when facebook first started. so i decided i was going to pursue a career in music. did a lot of drugs and partied, lost my virginity to this girl who was like a runaway. idk but she was staying with my friend and he gave me a condom and closed the door with me and her in it....that was super awkward, she was really attractive but i didnt know how to approach that situation. i wasnt about to rape her and i felt bad how she was being treated, so i was like we can just pretend we did it. then she started getting all emotional that i wouldnt have *** with her, so i did that. didnt expect it to happen like that but it was great. then like a bit after my friends mom told him she couldnt stay there so she left, never saw her again. graduated high school mostly off of the luck of teachers liking me, like my spanish teacher only passed me because i made her laugh she told me. i never had a girlfriend in high school, i actually got rejected by every girl i asked, it seemed like that liked me but then there were events that just made the timing bad each time. though one girl told me i was cute but too skinny, which i never let go of after we had been friends for a minute
young adult p1: graduated high school, everyone disagreed about me not wanting to go to college and trying to purse a music career but my mom and sister. that summer my step grandma died and my uncle took flew me out to L.A. and then Hawaii to help with the funeral, that was nice. when i came back my goal was to get a job, save, move to L.A. and start a band and blow up. i was still smoking weed and doing shrooms sometimes with my best friend, going to house parties. i got a job at Target and got fired before i could save for a car, then my mom got me a job doing data entry at gulf state toyota, i saved to get a car, got one, then got fired almost right after. i had a car and couldnt find a job but was working on my songwriting all that time. my uncle gave me money so i could move back to my hometown/state. so i packed up and drove out of texas and stayed with my last great grandma, weed was legal there so it was cool but my great grandma kicked me out and i stayed with my dad and step mom and my new little sister. my uncles friend owned a jewlery shop and let me "work" there, really he was just giving me money, he was one of the coolest people ive ever known and was a good example on how to be when i had money. my dad eventually went to jail, they had got into an argument and she lied and tried to say he was abusing her, which he wasnt while i was there. so i stayed with the jewlery shop owner, where he got me a job delivering lunches to private schools and stuff. got my first apartment, eventually my dad got out of jail and i gave him some money to stay at a hotel for a few weeks, then we had a falling out and i didnt call him. after a few years my friend who owned the jewlery shop died, i was super depressed, starting sleep with a few girls at my job, that blew up in my face and created a toxic enviornment. got fired eventually, left my apartment and went back to my grandma. who started acting crazy and i had to move back to Texas
young adult pt2: came back to texas super depressed and feeling like a failure. i was working on an experimental album while i was there and had a lot of my hope on that blowing up and saving me, it flopped. started getting pressured to get a job, but i had been fired from every job i had and had no references. but i got a seasonal position at Toys R Us. i felt like a jackass working in a toy store and most of the other employees were like fresh out of high school, so eventually i just quit. i convinced my mom to believe in my and let me do my music, she eventually came around, so for a few years i just worked on songwriting and my skills, started getting into working out. i met this women in australia through social media, she was so gorgeous and we really vibed. she had a lot of followers and shared one of my songs in a post, it took off in australia and i started getting offers from labels. me and her started dating and i got offered a multi album deal by Sony music with a couple million dollar advance. i moved out there to be with her while i worked on my album for them. fell in love, all that good stuff. was probably the best time in my life
dropped the album and it did good there and in europe, so i started touring for a year, traveling around the world. it was amazing and difficult at the same time, i made a grip of money and got an accountant to handle my taxes. it became really hard to maintain that relationship with her traveling due to time zones, our working hours. kind of went to shit and i was super depressed. finished and made a few more millions after that year, bought a house in cash back in the states. did like mini tours for a few weeks. started dating women again. i found one thats really great and we decided to be exclusive. i love her but im still in love with the other woman in AUS. im really torn currently between the two....
