Thanks!!!

(Before I begin, anyone who did not read the last post MUST read it to understand what is going on!)

Hey guys,

I am beyond happy to hear from you! I can't even try to tell you. The support was more than enough for me to continue trying. Max would like that, don't you think? If any of you want to share your stories, or just how Maximum Ride touched your life, I am more than pleased to listen. Email me anytime you feel like your life is falling apart! galbano93@yahoo.com

Okay, to clear one thing up quickly...I said "I have a 50% chance of becoming an alcoholic, drug addict, or smoker" Thank you to David R. Aronds for pointing out something I didn't make clear. It is true that I have as much as a chance of becoming an addict as anyone who picks up a drink, drugs, or a cigarette. That I'll give you. What I had meant to say, is that, I have the "addictive gene" in me. It's already showing actually. What happens is that, if I choose to, say, drink a glass alcohol, I might have a worse reaction to a that substance than another person. Which is probably going to be the case. I already know I have that horrible gene in me because I,unfortunately, actually enjoy cold medicine. The type that makes you drowsy because of the alcohol. Yeah, I know really bad, but not to the point where I would ever act on it. That's what I mean by the gene. I'm sure some of your parents have a glass of wine, or a beer, and that's okay. People can drink responsibly. I, on the other hand, probably can't, because I don't know what effect alcohol, drugs, or nicotine have on me.

That was a big paragraph! Hope I corrected my mistake!

Oh, I totally forgot to add how I'm doing. Let see, I'm okay, not great, not bad. My dad seems to be getting increasingly angery at me, but with your guys help, and my friends I am getting by. The only thing I have yet to deal with is the fricken' kids parents. See, since my mom got arrest at a public Walgreens, it was in the newspaper! Great! The kids around here are cool, but the stuck up parents aren't. IT WASN'T EVEN FRONT PAGE NEWS!!! Theres a tiny section called "Police Blotter" or something like that, and a very tiny article on my mom. Who reads that stuff?!?! obviously, parents around here. I have moms asking me how I'm doing, or if I need anything. Others mumble and whisper as I walk by. The stares get annoying, and usually I stay in doors. I know they care, but all they want are juicy details. They want to make sure my mom isn't harmful or anything, or if I am going to like flip out too. As if! Anyways, I think someone is going to mysteriously burn all the newspapers tonight, leaving absolutely no trace!!! Hee heee hee!

Gabby---Thanks again!

hey,
me again... i know i'm reading these posts like i month late but i hope you see them, once again i can sort of relate to people trying to make things better because everytime someone mentions the party where my brothers classmate died driving home under the influence i get all weppy because it was kind of the first thing that went wrong and i relate everything back to that day when the rest of my family was on a roadtrip bk from Canada... and then ofcourse i have to tell them that i would rather not talk about it and then they all want to know why, like dont i think it was horrible how she hit a tree less than a mile from home? OF COURSE I DO! and when i tell them that the party she got drunk at was at my house and thats why i hate talking about it they all stare at me like they feel sry and scared or something...and then of course because they're all such great people and even better friends they all want to make it better but they don't get that i dont want to talk about it... if you need to you vent you can email me...
