Ok here is a short idea of what my history of me- hardly entertaining but hey lets go!

I was born in the Winter of 1984, a daughter of a miner in the middle of the Miner's Strike in the hard North East of England. My dad had to cross the picket lines and go back to work one week before i was born and he nearly cleared our bank account buying me a teddy.
My mother was very ill after i was born and it took her a while to recover and she now had two children under three to look after on a very small budget.
Needless to say by Spring of 1985 the strike was over and i had a very happy childhood until i reached school. I started school aged 5 and was picked on because i was chubby and wore glasses. My mother returned to work and so for the first time i felt alone- even with a big sister in the same school. However i was not to be beaten down- my dad sat me down and said if anyone else called my "specky four eyes" again i was to kick them in the shins. The next day the headteacher called my dad into school to ask "did you tell your daughter to do....."
Things then settled down and my chubbiness of childhood soon disappeared when at 9 i got my first bra. Then things went haywire.
The mines that my dad worked in started to close down and my dad was made redundant, then we went on holiday and my beloved sister became very ill and we had to come home only days after we arrived. My sister was diagnosed with Crohns disease aged only 11 and for years after that the family had to put up with trips to hospital, operations and tendering of my sick sister.
My childhood ended there, that year i started Middle School and the years after that i was given the duties my parents would've done had my sister not been ill.
I learned how to do washing, cooking and cleaning. I was not happy about this but i got used to the fact "you're not allowed to go out if you have not done your chores!"
Middle school was my most happiest time- i runned free and happy with cherished friends. By the time i was twelve i was a young lady teased because of her advanced puberty. But i had also fallen in love, my first crush. For a year i fell in love with this boy and by the summer of 1998 i believed him in love with me.
Then a shadow came in Autumn of 1998- High School. I hated those three years where i lost my innocence, my love and my self confidence due to bullying, abuse and loss to this day i don't like talking about it.

By 2001 i had left all the darkness behind and gone to college aged 16 and full of freedom. I trained to work in a clerical environment suceeding in many of my exams and gaining lots of distinctions. But no lad touched my life the way the love of 1998 had and many recupurations would come back to haunt me of him.

By the summer of 2002 i had left college, looking for a job which was harder than it seems. People would not give me a job because i had no experience and i couldn't get a job to get the experience. I was in a catch 22.
Finally after 35 job applications and 5 interviews i finally got a job and in October 2002 one month before my 18th birthday i crossed the divide of childhood and a new chapter of my life began.



ok if you that was ok i shall write what has happened since then,
If not alls well that ends well.
