I’ll answer some questions I know I’ll probably get.
My mother basically spent the her family’s trust fund within her lifetime and had a lot of mental health issues, plus substance issues. Hence, why the car is a relatively recent car.
We were living beyond our means, and crash coursed into having nothing except our car and a bag of clothes.
I had a phone from before I had become homeless. Didn’t have service, but that’s how we could take pictures. I also would go to Internet cafes a lot, so I was terminally online like most teenagers.
Especially, since my mom stripped at night, and would kind of just abandon me at times, I had a lot of time online. A LOT of time. Too much time.
You may say, I didn’t look homeless. We went to a laundromat to wash our clothes, or washed them at public parks/beaches when we couldn’t afford that. We also bathed at said public parks/beaches. I had makeup (as you see).
I was a teenaged girl and was probably just as vain as any other teenaged girl would be.
I’ll also add, I was “homeschooled” after 6th grade.
When I was taken away by CPS before my 18th birthday, I faked it through my senior year to be able to at least get my high school diploma.
I’ve always been a bit of a weirdo about some subjects, so that kind of saved my grade.
To be honest, I probably have the education level of a middle school child. I can’t afford college, and even if I were able to I don’t think I’d be able to get into college.
I don’t know math other than addition, multiplication, subtraction, the basic things etc. Also, I know nothing about physics.

Also, here are some pictures from around that time. The ones from afar are taken by my mother.
Edit: Grammar :)
