Its hard enough being a teenager but being a teenager in this ghetto slum just depresses me. Every night I am awoken by the sound of gunshots or once in blue moon police sirens. The only way I can describe it is like a food chain the gangs and crews are the sharks and people like myself are the terrified tuna, we play by their rules and no one else's. Most of the kids my age around this area are into drugs, cars and everything bad. I do have one good friend though, he's name is Tony he's a life long friend we've been at school together for eight years and we do everything together or we used to. We haven't done much recently as he hasn't been at school or around my house. My mother will not accept him in my house or with me playing with him....
