2021-2022, Years In Review

December 31, 2022February 26, 2023 Leave a comment

2021 was the worst year of my life. That may seem odd considering what a disaster 2020 was but nevertheless 2021 was worse. In June of 2021 I was talked into moving into a group home. At first I thought it was what I wanted since I wanted to get out of my parent’s house.… Continue reading 2021-2022, Years In Review

2020-Year in Review

January 1, 2021 Leave a comment

2020 was a very difficult year for me. It began with me still devastated over my breakup with my ex-girlfriend. The depression got so bad that I was hospitalized three times in January, March and July. Luckily I met very supportive people during each of my stays in the hospital and gave me meaning to… Continue reading 2020-Year in Review

2019: Year in review

January 5, 2020 Leave a comment

2019 was a really mixed year for me. My Girlfriend of nearly two years left me and I still don’t know what I did wrong. My favorite fireworks show ever ended to be replaced by a glorified pyrotechnic commercial. My favorite place in the world is being torn apart and watered down before my eyes.… Continue reading 2019: Year in review

Epilogue: New Hope

January 8, 2018 1 Comment

I had started entering the world of online dating about a year before I met the CAP-G Producer. After the falling out  I doubled my efforts and for months I had a few close calls but no real success.

Chapter 11″ Where to now?”

December 28, 2017 Leave a comment

Where To now? Since leaving Vanguard and losing so many people who meant so much to me, I have continued to try to live as best I can. I completed an Audio production course in College and with my Uncle John made my first big serious recording, a cover of the Beatles, “If I Fell.”… Continue reading Chapter 11″ Where to now?”

Chapter 10:What happened?

December 11, 2017 Leave a comment

  In Mid-August 2010 I suddenly realized that there were people my age and younger who were already living by themselves, halfway through College and higher up on the social ladder than I was. My years of trying to escape adulthood had caught up with me and the reality of my situation sunk in.  … Continue reading Chapter 10:What happened?

Chapter 9-In Business

November 30, 2017 Leave a comment

During Summer 2008, it felt like a whole new world was within my grasp. I felt a sense of accomplishment for my graduation yet was relieved that I still had some sort of program at Vanguard to keep me grounded with my past.  I don’t think it would have been comfortable me at that time… Continue reading Chapter 9-In Business

Chapter 8-The Amazing Turn-around

November 20, 2017 Leave a comment

In one moment at the end of the camp I hated, I instantly became a more empathetic and caring person. I also began to realize that I was not “one of them,” that I was my own person.  I learned to empathize with them but I knew that I had my own potential and that… Continue reading Chapter 8-The Amazing Turn-around

On the last day of school, “Catherine” told me that she did not want to leave her current boyfriend, who had not taken well to the news that she was planning to dump him for me.  She said had re-thought her decision to go out with me.   I felt completely heartbroken and had an… Continue reading Chapter 7: Heartbreak and self-discovery
