Nobody deserves an ending like the one I'm seeing right now. This young lady's life didn't deserve to end with so many knife wounds. This young lady deserved to live a wonderful life with her friends and family. Who do something like this? Why would anyone do something like this?

Where I come from is not a place I talk about. Where I come from is a place I don't remember. Where I come from is a distant memory.

I long to return to a place where I felt happy. I long to see my parents, brother and sister. I long to be the carefree girl I use ...
