Parents very strict

That is the truth.

Volleyball is my life

Volleyball is who I am

Volleyball is what keeps me going

Music is my safe place

Music lets me feel myself

I am can express my feelings when surrounded 

This is the truth.

I struggle with self-worth

What do people think of me?

What am I doing wrong?

Will people like me more if I act a certain way?

I only tell the truth.

Family is my rock

Being tougher because having 3 brothers

Having a sensitive side from my sister

Always being pushed to do better by my parents

I only know the truth.

Always having an expectation to be good at school

Only A’s accepted

AP classes in high school

D1 colleges

All one expectation

Truth.

Always trying to get out of the house 

Trying to always be with my friends

Having a support system full of my best friends

Loving my friend's parents and always wanted to hang with them

That is the truth.
