Madison Ogashi @MaddiOashi (183) • United States 30 Jan 16

Well, the kids pawned off the computer again. Now I just have the phone. See, that's why I can't do much..... I get started on something, they go pawn it off or something. I hate typing on the phone. I need a regular keyboard....

Madison Ogashi @MaddiOashi (183) • United States 21 Aug 15

That's something I've never really understood. Sure, we have classes of people here in America, but we can work our way out of what we no longer want. Like people in the poverty area's, can leave and work their way up the social...
