s only thirteen years, I didn't consider expenses like education, medical and dental. Nevertheless, I paid for everything I bought for myself, candy, movie tickets, clothing and the like. My parents actually complained, saying they wanted to spoil me now and then but when I had decided on something, I stuck with it. The only exceptions were on my birthdays and Christmases.

I found it when I started college and needed a break from writing this essay I was struggling with. This restaurant helped me relax and I went home that day ready to tackle that damn essay. So after that, I just kept coming back. We were not supposed to but I started bringing my homework with me and
