Hello, my name is Justin I live in the northern part of New Hampshire.North Conway to be exact.I am originally from the south western part of the state,a little town called Raymond.In my opinion New Hampshire is one of the most beautiful states in our great country.As a child we moved a lot,though we never left the state it wasn't easy to create lasting friendships or really commit to much.My mother was married three times but never to my father I have eleven brothers and sisters of which I am the oldest.Moving a lot meant many different schools and somewhere along the way I got lost.I think it was after the second divorce.I'm not using it as an excuse but that was the turning point in my education.I remember it was sixth grade I was previously a straight a student I enjoyed reading very much. In forth grade I entered a read-athon and read over one hundred books.still something about that divorce altered my desire to be an over achiever in one semester my grades went from A's to straight f's it was at this time when emotionally I shut off.I began experimenting with drugs.If you couldn't find me all you had to do was look for the place there was trouble I was usually somewhere in the middle.You can probably tell where this is headed.For the next seven years I struggled to get by never accomplishing much.Finally at the age of nineteen I had had enough I quit school and had a serious urge to end my life.I was only in the ninth grade,Pathetic for the next few weeks I fell into the furthest depths of despair.Tired of living It was time to end this miserable experience that was called my life.......This is where I will stop only for now to find out where this goes you'll have to read my auto biography when my Book is published. So for now remember the name Justin A. MacIntosh This is my beginning.......
