Life's like an hourglass glued to the table...

Here i am!
Mood:  blue
Now Playing: Hourglass
Topic: Not a day too soon...
So this is where i start. My name is Vicky and i am a single teenage mom. Yes, now i am 20 and will be 21 in January; however, i had my daughter when i was 18 and i completely fall under the "teen mom statistic" that so many other young girls are subdued to. I don't want to go into some sad sob story about how i was young and my life was ruined, because it wasn't. I could not be more thrilled with the decision i made and the road i took that was less traveled. I am a thrill seeker and thrive on the fact that i am leading another human being in the direction to become any thing and do whatever they please in life. My baby is beautiful and is the "Amazing Grace" in my life as i call her. Olivia Grace, my sunshine. So here we are; living in a two-bedroom apt., working full-time, attending college full-time, and still trying to have a social life while i'm single handedly raising my little girl. It is overwhelming and stressful concidering i am in debt up to my eyeballs and i feel like the world is crushing me just when i seem to get up! I am trying my damndest to keep our heads above water, but it is hard and it is lonely. I come home to no significant other ready to hear the details of my day or sleep next to and wake up to every morning. I have no one to hold my hand or whisper they love me so as not to share our romance with the cruel and unruly world. I am the table that the hourglass in upon. I don't have the ability to turn the hourglass and start over. I get one chance to do it right; so here i am!
