A story about my life

"
I was born on the 10 of August 1989 where I would be born in old cresswell Dumfries to go home to my papa and grannys house with my mum to live for a short period of time in a small village called Gelston.
What I have been told though by my mum was we weren't here for long and moved to a farm cottage between Parton and Crossmichael on a farm known as Colgarth. Here I would spend the early years of my life as my father was a general farm worker on a farm local to where we were living.
I then would attend primary school in Crossmichael for part of my primary years until I moved to Castle Douglas where I finished my primary school years.
I then attended castle Douglas high school and by this stage my parents had seperated and my mother had a new partner. This was when things started going wrong in my life as I stayed with my Dad to start with and the seperation had hit me bad plus I was getting bullied at the school.
I then moved in with my Mum and her partner and we moved to Kirkcudbright so I finished the rest of my secondary school days at Kirkcudbright Acadamy where I then got into farm work myself. I done school work experience on a farm in Kirkcudbright and ended up going to the Barony college for a short while doing Agriculture but I once again was getting bullied there and couldn't cope with it any longer so gave it up. I forgot to add in my younger days I attended lochside theatre and done some pantos and also done some training in the martial art of Judo.
After attending to Barony I helped out on some local farms of Kirkcudbright for a while until I met a girl that I stayed with for the majority of four years in Castle Douglas until we eventually seperated. I then met another girl from Kelloholm which eventually I moved up there with her and am now currently with her still. I struggled for a while to get a job until eventually I gained employment on the job am doing in a meat factory. We are currently expecting our first child together too and life is looking up. It must be a change in luck. I forgot to add aswell I have four wee sisters.
I am now a 25 year old man with everything I want in my life. A job,family and I also train in muay thai as a hobby but have no fights under my belt as of yet but hopefully won't be too long until people get to see me in the ring.

It's not so much of a story as it is an overview of your life, like you are summarizing yourself. Maybe try and add some more detail about your surroundings, and people that have come into your life.
