I am 15 years old and I obviously do not have my license but who cares right. My parents bought me a car for my 15th birthday and I had the key to the car. Well my parents had went out one night so my friend, my brother and I decided it would be a good idea to go out and jump railroad tracks and drive around the country roads because it was the cool thing to do in a small town. I of course had to take my little sister so she wouldn't tell my parents that I took my car out of the driveway. So we were just driving around jumping railroad tracks having a good time until we decided to jump a set of tracks that was right off of a state highway. So I speed up as fast as my beater will go and we jump the tracks next thing I know I look to my left and there is a semi coming so I do all I know to do and I hit the breaks as hard as I could and I swear we went from mid-air straight down. Then less than 4 feet in front of my car passes the semi. Right after that we went straight back to my house and just sat there the rest of the night acting like nothing had happened. For quite sometime after that happened I was afraid of getting anywhere near a semi and as funny as it my daughter's father is now a semi driver.

I've only had about one major life change that was when I found out I was pregnant with my daughter. I had moved out of my parents house the day the rest of my class was graduating. I wasn't allowed to go threw the ceremony because I was ¼ of a credit short. I moved in with my boyfriend of a short 3 months and we were together for 2 years and engaged to be married but I had a change in plans. He became very controlling and pushed me over the edge. I kept trying to leave him and he wouldn't let me leave and he kept threatening to kill himself if I ever left him. Of course I felt bad so I said well all of that started in October and by late December I had started talking to my ex boyfriend from when I was in high school. He was engaged to be married also and had a child on the way with his fiancée. We decided to hang out one day and well one thing lead to another and we ended up hooking up. We both kept it a secret from everyone including our husband and wife to be. Well we started hanging out more at night because my fiancée worked 3^rd shift. One night I got my fiancée's vehicle for he night and I met up with Adam, my daughter's father, in Bloomington because he did a paper route out there. After the route we went back to my apartment and of course one thing lead to another and our daughter was conceived. My fiancée kicked me out and I had to move back into my parents. Before my daughter was conceived I had no idea what I was going to do with my life. When I found out that I was pregnant my whole entire world flipped over. I would do anything and everything for my daughter she is my whole entire world.
