Well let's see.. A little bit about me without sounding too generic. I go St. Helens High School. I work very hard at all that I do. I am trying to ensure that I will have a future worth living for. I sort of have a lack of the monetary units.. Sad, I know. I don't want to end up being one of those sob stories about a bright and intelligent student who never got the chance that they deserved. I need to go to college, and make something of myself. However, I need some help getting there.
