Cynthia's Story
Life
You can find me on myspace.
After high school, I went to SMCC for 2 years. I have one child. Still live on the South Side and just enjoy every day with my family.
School
The teacher that inspired me the most and made the greatest impact on my life would have to be Mrs. Myers. She was my English Honors teacher for sophomore and senior year. High school was pretty tough to get through. Not the classes, but trying to put on a happy face when I felt like I was dying inside was really hard.

Workplace
So K-Mart has become my fall-back job. I work there part time, it helps pay the bills. I don't want a full time job, because I don't want to leave my son in some crappy day care.
Kids
