So this is a new story. Please review to tell me if i suck. Remember i do not own South of Nowhere
Ok so I thought that when I graduated from high school I would be able to make my own decisions; decide what I wanted to do. I mean, that's what being an adult means right? Being able to make your own decisions without anyone telling you what's wrong or right, to just figure it out by yourself.
This is what I thought the middle of senior year but I guess I was wrong. You see, I have the most controlling mom ever. I'm serious; she tries to control everything from what I eat, who I should date, and who my friends should be. But the thing that I hate the most is that she wants me to follow in her footsteps, to be a doctor. I mean don't get me wrong, it would be totally awesome to save peoples lives but blood isn't really my best friend. I mean one drop of blood and I could pass out. What I really want to do is become a teacher. I love to teach people new things and to see the look on their faces when they finally understand is like the best thing ever. I can't tell her this though. She just doesn't understand and whenever I tell her something I want she just gives me this super long speech about how being a doctor would be the best thing for me and that she's only pushing me towards it because she loves me.
That is a bunch of bull shit. She just wants me to be exactly like her. Being her isn't that great though. She had an affair with her boss a while ago. Ugh Ben. I hate him. He used to work in Ohio with my mom but moved to L.A. I thought that we finally could get back to our old lives but no. He begged my mom to come with him to L.A. and of course my mom did.
Now my parents are divorced. Ben wreaked my family so now I'm forced to live with my mom while my dad and my brothers live in Ohio. Of course she made me come with her. She told me it would be a learning experience and that she would be able to show me the ropes of the hospital. I really tried to get out of it. I mean what teenager would want to live on the other side of the country with her controlling mother and where she doesn't know anyone. Any takers? I didn't think so. My dad really tried to get me to stay but when he took it to court the judge decided that L.A. would be better for me and my future. Personally I think my mom paid the judge of some how but whatever. There's nothing I can do now. My name is Spencer Carlin and this is my story.
