To be nice or NOT
When you’ve never been loved it’s hard to understand it. The first few years that I was with my new family everything was clouds and sunshine but when your mind has been warped like mine, you never know what you’ll get. When I felt uneasy I’d take knives from the kitchen and hide in me…

Ways to survive
I tried my best to deal with life on my own. But I was a child… I was poor, dirty smelled like pee(my countermeasure for those perverts) no one wanted to be friends with a girl like me. However, I could fight and everyone needs a scrapper around. I ended up finding myself a group…

That First HIT
How does it feel? I bet it hurts. The first day I went to the hotel where my mother was living, we sat down for dinner. My mom had a stove, small fridge and countertop. She made some smothered chicken, beans and mash. How do I remember just wait you shall see. We sat down,…

Name Break Down
Why SHH? When it comes to why I decided on the name Smart, Humble & Hungry it all came down to what spoke to me. I must say empowering women was never something I’d thought of being apart of. The BIG MAN upstairs came up with that all on his own. Now can I be…
