Olivia is the name I go by. My friends back home call me Oli for short. I have been here in this small apartment complex for a while now but it's only been two months since I've seen my family last time back in Athens. It's not easy being away from your loved ones, especially when you're young and still figuring out who you are.
Life was never the same after high school ended. Mom had passed on during my senior year of high school so it wasn't like there was anyone holding me back anymore. I could do whatever I wanted and that's exactly what I did - packed up all my belongings, said goodbye to my father and little sister and set off for America with a smile on my face.
The first few months were tough though; missing home and my family took a toll on me. But then things started to fall into place once I got settled in here and made some new friends at the local community college where I'm taking classes. It's funny how quickly you can adjust when given a chance, huh? Now, I find myself laughing more often than not even though my situation is far from perfect.
My current job is working as a waitress at this tiny diner downtown while attending night classes to get some sort of degree in computer science because that's what Mom wanted for me before she passed. But honestly, who needs an education when you've got beauty and charm on your side? I know it sounds shallow but it's true - people
