i have been in prison 6 times
first in june 2009 last october 2010
longest 3 months shortest 3 days
crimes:
arson
assault
reckless conduct
(just some of them you get the idea)
i have to say i got more help in the prison system then out in the community its a sham someone has to end up in prison to get the help they need and now i have the help i need in the community because i went to prison
its not a bad place to be (in Australia) i dont want to go back but if i ended up back it dosent bother me
prison is a part of my life i wish never happened but at the end of the day im glad it did happen if it didn't i would be more f**ked up then i am now
my life is a yo-yo of in and out of prison or hospital or homelessness
im surprised im not in prison now i was so close to stabbing someone or my house mate or going around starting fires so close so i went into hospital by choose and now im glad i chose hospital
i cant go back home but i havent hurt anyone
i sometime miss prison life is much easer in there you dont have to worry were you will sleep at night when you will get your next meal or clean cloths or a hot shower - its all just there - no public transport - its just easer i dont know why i find it easer but i do - i hardly got bored in there - always something to do or go and see someone in another unit - tv in each cell - toilet shower desk chair bed - what i do miss is my computer, mobile, internet, go anywhere i want (only a little bit), getting up whenever i want - the only thing i hate about it is the count were they count everyone to make shaw everyone is present and accounted for
there is a swimming pool, pool table, bingo, arts and crafts, drama, singing, gym, library, sports, programs, education, canteen - what more do you need
the officers liked me so i got away with a lot - none of them were assholes if you treated them right they treated you right - what goes around comes around
