Melissa's Story
School
Catholic school is not all short, plaid skirts and bad girl reputations...

I just want to have goats and chickens and some ducks...maybe a cow and some sheep. I wish I was a trust fund baby but then I wouldn't have been born to MY parents and I love them more than money anyway...
