Hello, I am Trevor i am 16 and this is my life story leading up to starcraft so far. Sorry for Typo's if any its late... just ranting

When i was little my dad was in the military Navy to be exact he was gone alot so i was raised by my mom i have 2 older siblings my sister who is 20 now and my brother who is 24. Since my mom raised me it was mainly a girls house when my dad was gone. Then when my dad came back he would always he cheerful hooray yeah all that jazz. Then couple months he would be gone again. As a little kid you don't think of that stuff as "mind changing" but it eff'd with my brothers brain he started snorting cocaine and smoking marijuana. For a single mom at the time my mom had no control i was 8 or so at the time so i didn't understand what the hell was going on. That all went down the same course until my dad came home then my brother "got clean" then my dad would leave and he would get into worst sh!t. At one point he was doing meth heroin and cocaine he was 16 at the time.. after my brother moved out i was 13 or 14 it was around 8th grade he came back from a long trip.. and Decided he wanted to leave my mom.. my mom being the loving and caring person, she broke down.. and never was the same mom i knew her to be.. and one day my dad just left.. didn't tell me where he was going just straight up left. Me being 14 now it had the most devastation to myself.. i got my ears pierced and starting smoking marijuana.. i remember one time my mom and me and my sister had no money so we slept on the side of the rode.. my dad after he heard that decided to let us stay in the house while he payed the bills.. My mom had no job, She would just sit in her room and have me take care of her at age 14 i was like what the F*ck. I would go to school come back Cook/clean/eat/sleep/watch TV by myself.. i pretty much lived by myself, My sister was a senior in high school so she just never came home. I remembered one time i sat in my bathroom looking in the mirror with pills in my hand begging myself to do it.. kill myself.. My sister was a senior in high school so she just never came home. this all happened for 2 years.. Then after my 9th grade year my mom and my dad finally settled their Divorce claims.. my dad got the house my mom got my dads saving which was 38k i believe. My mom being stupid as shit bought a 13 grand car... then let my brother back in to help pay the bills.. after 5 months of living in an apartment my mom was out of money my brother had a warrant out for his arrest and my sister and I were on our own again.. so we moved in with my dad and my mom moved to Florida.. I am now living back with my dad...

Then i found starcraft! (this is where it gets happy!) In january i started playing Starcraft2 and i fell in love as soon as i saw my first probe! Me never touching an RTS in my life i have gone from not knowing shit to platinum in about 6 months? which is good in my eyes. So thats my life so far pretty long i know Hope to see you all at MLG's and one day i will win one.. and GSL i hope to win that Thanks guys much love <3 -Trevor

D: Good luck Good Luck
Continue to work hard. Don't play too much.
I think in our modern age technology has evolved to become more addictive. The things that don't give us pleasure aren't used as much. Work was never meant to be fun, but doing it makes us happier in the long run.

Wow, sounds like you've been through alot. Don't let it get you down though, you can do whatever you want now, consider college and all that scary stuff after school.

StarCraft and the community are good things. Just remember to always have fun, watch Day9 Daily #100, and don't feed the trolls and this can be nothing but a good thing.
We think too much and feel too little. More than machinery, we need humanity. More than cleverness, we need kindness and gentleness. Without these qualities, life will be violent and all will be lost. -Charlie Chaplin
