Homeless to Harvard
I loved my mother so much
She was a drug addict
She was an alcoholic
She was legally blind
She was a schizophrenic
But I never forgot that she loved me
Even if she did it
All the time   
All the time
Lisa, give me the money! It's mine! God, it's mine! You freak. Give it to me! Give it to me！
Let go, mom!
I gave a hundred to you！
Just come, I gave 100 to you！to one of you！
We're forced to live on! Every month! It is ...It's the same damn thing! You can put it in your arms, so we can starve!
It's mine! I didn't take it! Give it to me! Give it to me! It's mine! 
We're hungry. I can’t! We need food, mom!
What did you ever do for me, huh?! I gave you life! Tell me go out to the street and sell myself for it? Huh? Do you want me to do it? I know I do it sometimes, right?
I need it.
[Monologue]I wanted that smile.Oh, god! I wanted that smile so much. I was pathetic, wasn't I?
Don't take the aqueduct! Mummy! She’s taking the aqueduct!
What the hell difference does it make？
She'll get mugged！
Who cares!
Dad, we'll cop her, if we can't she'll get mugged!
Always a big production!
See they fixed the light for a change.
Not easy to break them again
No, No, No. She's ok, see the water runs downhill.
There's no water
No, No. Don't you know what aqueduct is? The aqueduct carried water to New York City for like over a hundred years they did that. And they close it down, but now the ghost water right? He carried your mother along.
[Monologue] My father, you could sit down on a couch and talk to my father. You just can't talk to him for long. He knew so much. He got all the answers right on JEOPERDY. He was a genius, every answer, every time. That’s the thing. Your parents are your Gods. I look to them as an example of what I should find everywhere on the world. They paid so little attention to my needs .but then I felt that their needs were so powerful that ... It didn't make me feel hurt or angry that they didn't look into me. Because I felt ok. This just must to be the human condition to be so. And then the world came in.
You took my husband, you little bustard, I'll kill you.
No, mummy!
I'm not your mother. I did your favor.  I shouldn't have trail on you!
Help me clean up this Liz. They see this they're gonna take us, too.
NO! NO! NO! It's my house. Don’t take me！Get out! NO！Don't take！
No fasten!
What happened to the window?
She threw the ****.
Such you on fire,
Come on jean
Why don't take a medication? good girl！
tickle
She takes it! She just takes too many other things on top
OK OK
This place is a mess！
What happened here？
I fell down.
Oh oh oh, Jean put the knife down
All right where's the phone?
We don't have one!
This woman doesn't fit
You're kidding
You girls have choice. Clean this place up, help your mother.
How about my father？
Ignore her. She's a ... She's a feminist.
I can take you any time I want. You keep skipping school. You keep living like the animals.Hey hey, where are you going? Come back here. Come back. You’re gonna go to a home. Do you know what home is like? There are girls. They'll beat you dull, take everything you have. You can't have anything! You have to clean bathrooms. You’ll work there if you don't work here.
Back up! Back up. It’s not a show! You got nothing better to do, huh?
[Monologue] Couldn't they see? Anyone could see. She was in so much pain. There were struggles so much on the surface so there if anyone cared to look. It wasn't like she was running off from being a good mother to She just didn't have any more to give.
Oh, somebody stinks!
What is that?
[Monologue] I was always the smelly kid in class.  We *** on the bucket to shower, but dad
dy laughed at her doing, said she had to marry a doctor she has so many expectations. I didn't have any expectations. So therefore, I guess, I stunk. And I itched from *** and it burned between my legs. My teachers were always telling not to finch it, and my underwear. I didn't know what to do about underwear. I just wore it until it fell apart.
All right! People! Thank you! Rest is over.
[Monologue] My teeth ached. I was hungry.
Settle! Thank you!
[Monologue] The teacher's words never seemed to reach me. Words fall on the floor.
Hold me the test. There's no
NO, I'll take it.
But you've been here what? For 3 times this month?
NO, I'll take it. It doesn't look that hard.
Oh, Liz, stay here. You do smell, you know? Doesn't your mother tell you that
NO. It's my fault. I just forget. 
OK.Well, when you have shower tonight, you wanna, you wanna wash back here? Ah, I've been saving some things for you. There and here. How did you do that? You're never in school.
I read a lot.
Yeah? What do you read? Encyclopedia. The lady upstairs, Eva, she find it in the Dumpster, the whole set ... well, except for the Erdos.If you asked me about Erdos, I would have got it wrong. I was just lucky.
