At so many other moments in my life I would have broken down, crumbled, died even, if I had to face what I have already had to so early into this trip. Instead, I am choosing to be happy – here, I am choosing to survive.
Medicating my way through life with my tried-and-tested, at-home techniques, I can make heaven out of almost any hell. I will not let the actions of others take away from the victories of the day. No matter the size, no matter the impact – a victory is a victory and is celebrated as such.
Tonight, is another night for me. I am celebrating my hard work, dedication, and God-given talent that will carry me to the next stage of my life. I am not here to celebrate a man.
Locked and loaded, I head out for the night, excited and eager to see what a city like this could offer a girl like me.
