I wake up every morning and don't even know how to feel. How can I feel? How can I be happy when I get brought down? What is happiness? I hear that there is something happy in every home, but there is no happiness in my home. There is no love. All there is is hate. My mood increases when I'm anywhere but home. I want to leave. I want to see that house disappear behind me.

So 'harness that' and put the energy from it to work. You're 16, at an age where the decisions you make can shape your career and your life. Forget the negativity, put your strength and energy into studying and making sure your headed to the best College you can get to. Make sure your Test Scores are great, if they're not retake them. Search out scholarships start applying...

You have what it takes to survive and succeed over your circumstance, but you are the one who has to do the work in order for that to happen, and I'll be honest its work, lots of hard work. The thing about hard work is, it occupies your brain and doesn't leave space for all the crap that you don't want in there.

So, you want out of the house, out of that angry environment, decide right now, this minute, starting tomorrow you're going to work toward getting out and getting great!

Take care,
Kat
