Teenage years
Youth camp of southwest Ohio
I remember as a teenager I would enjoy going to this southern youth camp in morrow Ohio. At commissary they had some delicious nacho's with warm cheese, always the perfect cheddar cheese warmed up on the side of the tortilla chips.

Love story
It was just another of our usual gatherings. That day we decided to play hide n seek. And it was ___ den. The moment ___ went to count, he held my hand and took me somewhere to hide. I didn't know what that place was but yes it was magical. We were hiding there and as usual having our talks. He the one talking talking and talking and I like always just lost in him. Suddenly I heard someones footsteps, I thought its ___. And in an instant I put my hand on his mouth to shut him so that we don't get caught. But He KISSED it. I don't know what happened to me but In an instant I withdrew my hand and came out whereas in that moment I wanted something else. I wanted just to be with him. But I came out running and surrendered myself in the game. After that moment, I became quite and started ignoring him. I was lost. I didn't know what to do, how to react to what just happened! So what I did was to act NORMAL like nothing happened. Then the clock struck 6 and it was time to return to our homes. As I was just stepping out, I heard him say I will drop Nimisha! My heart skipped a beat. I said No I can go on my own, you don't have to. He just didn't care and said its too late I will drop you atleast till the metro station! I agreed thinking the way is not too long I can manage by not talking to him. But who knew what is going to happen. And then he suddenly said we will go on foot. I also wanted to and also didn't want to but I reluctantly said OK. In The first few steps we both didn't speak a word and had an ackward silence between us. Then he finally said I AM SORRY!

How I Beat Death
It all started off on a humid summer night. It was just me and my cousin driving around town late at night doing the normal teenager stuff. It was about 2Am at this time, us being dumb kids we decided to smoke at a park, it seemed like a pleasant park in a good neighboorhood. We rolled a blunt and hotboxed the car everything went good until we seen a silver ford explorer pull into the park entrance, everybody can guess who it was just by the car. The police drove slowly over to my car mind you I have tint so they can't tell if someone is in the car yet, I look over to my cousin I can feel his heart beat through his eyes I coulda swore we were going to jail. I looked over to my cousin and told him they didnt turn on the lights yet im gonig to just try to drive off and see what they do, and of course they turn on the lights and pull us over in the middle of the parking lot you probably thinking awe thats not to bad you just got a little weed on you out past curfew but no thats the complete oppisite. My cousin came from a rough side of town so he always kept a gun on him, out of the blue he decided to put the gun underneath my seat all in a matter of seconds. Then I hear a door slam I look out the mirror and see a sheirif and the town we were in was had a smaller population and was in between to big cities so they didn't have a police station the sherifs just patrolled the town. Back to reality the sheriff knocks on the window I roll it down he instantly smells the weed but I wasn't freaking out yet beacause we were in illinois and weed is legal. So i go on to tell him weed is legal and you can't search my car but I had to give him my drivers liscense to prove I was eligable to be driving and he said " it is absolutley not legal for you guys at least you are both minors". so we go on talking he said the words that haunt me till this day, " so when my partner gets here were gonna do a quick search of the car and call your parents. minutes later his partner arrives we get out the car no hands cuffs or anything he just pats us down finds nothing and then he moves onto the car. This man is literally tearing my car apart looking for stuff then I hear the words "oh wow what do we have here". he pulls out the mac11 my cousin had on him but the officer pulled out the clip adn said so your essentailly walking around with a mac11 bb gun. I couldnt help but laugh and look at my cousin with a distressed face. they gave us a ticket for smoking the weed and just took the gun for evidence they called my mom and auntie to come pick us up good thing my dad lived down the street they took us there for the night and god was on our side. But heres when the story has a drastic change of events, I stayed up the rest of the night because tomorrow was my first day of work of my very first job ever. i was excited, morning came i dropped off my cousin all dressed for work had the music blasting what could go wrong. Then as im driving I get on a road called wadsworth its a 2 lane road that merges to 1 lane. Im already in the left lane so no need to merge there is a white chevy malubau in the right lane just next to me she slows down so I slow down thinking she is trying to merge but there is a gravel drive way on the right side of the road so I speed up thinking she is turning into there then all of a sudden I see a car turn right in to me trying to hit a U-Turn in the middle of the road, I swerve in to the lanes of on coming traffick god bless there wasnt any cars coming at the time, but the car keeps going and mind you Im doing at least 60 at this time in a brand new dodge challenger the car hits my back wheel I spun out and started to flip I swear I thought that was my going to be my last time on earth. as my car is flipping in the air I put my hand to the roof and said please god help me, after I rolled one more time the car landed up right I look at my body and feel fine, then I look inside the car and my radio was on fire I unbutton my seat belt get out the car and just take a minute to just breathe. Then a black lady gets out the car and comes up to me and says "how the F*ck are you not dead". I finally realized what happended and I look at my car it was tottaly destroyed, at that point i wasnt even thinking about me I was thinking about my baby all smashed up and windows broken.so now I analyze the seen to find the person that hit me I see the white chevy and young girl no older then me gets out the car and I just sat there in disbelif she didnt even come over to apollogize but that black lady was my gaurdian angel I call her that to this day she called the cops before the girl tried to flee the scene. emt and the police arrive shortly after they took me to the hospital I wasnt even hurt foreall I was just trying to get a check at his point you feel me. But heres the crzy part I got to the hospital everything is good i check out to be fine then an officer comes in the room and says ''sorry to tell you son but that young lady had no drivers license or insurance it wasnt even her car". she ended up going to court had to pay $20k in fees but thats it. I was out a job and a car, got ptsd from the situation and she just kept on with her life like nothing happend. but its been a little over 10 months now Im still recovering i went and got baptized the same weekend and just thanked god I was still here. Hope yall like the story its 100% true I know its some flaws in my story but I literally just typed this in 30 minutes. thank yall and enjoy...

Toxic love
I started my first job at 16, and I worked in fast food. 6 months into working I was told that we were getting a new manager from another store. All I knew about him was that his name was Drew and he was transferring over because of a gnarly breakup with anther manager. I had no idea that he would not only change my life, but change me as well.

Hey Mom, You're a Fucking Idiot
Hey mom... I've never told you any of this before, but... ...I'm not quite sure how to feel about you anymore. I used to take pride in how our family was in public; how well dad would take care of my brother - your son. You know, the one born with so many disabilities and who I am expected to care for when dad can't. Yeah.

You are the meaning of love
First of all, I want to say I am sorry, I am sorry for the stupid and idiotic things I have been saying and doing over the past years. After Dad committed suicide you were devastatingly standing alone with not even a year old baby. Everyone doubted you for his death because they didn't know about his mental health issues but you were brave and stood tall, everyone acted wickedly toward you but you did not give up. After his death, all you ever thought was about me, you would not even eat properly once a day because you were saving for me, you would wear ripped and torn clothes but you would buy me lovely new clothes so no one will make fun of me. I still remember you sitting in a corner and crying with no one supporting you, all I could do was wipe your precious tears with my unworthiest hands.

Mother's Day Confessions
Dear Mom, Mother, by the time you receive this, Mother’s Day will have come and gone, so first I apologize for the late arrival of this gift to you but hey, you know me, I’m quite the procrastinator so let’s just blame that on my ability to wander off into my own wondrous imaginary world known as the scattered brain of Camri Steele-Stone. Plus, you yourself are quite the procrastinator so if we’re to blame anyone, technically, it should be you because I’ve done nothing but observe and adopt your behaviors while young. The subconscious is very impressionable during the adolescent stages, lol, I’m only kidding mom, I just like to burst your bubble sometimes! Besides all that, I hope all is well. How are things at the clinic? School? Valerie still talking smack? Lol, when you write back don’t hold out on any information, I wanna know it all. I kinda miss our drama filled talks, I don’t really do much gossiping these days.
