My First Day In A New School My family is always moving for working reasons. We never stick to anything if we see a better opportunity we take it. After nearly living six years in Provo, Utah my dad told my brother and I we would be moving to Topeka, Kansas to open a restaurant. I had to say goodbye to all of my longtime friends. Then by the end of November were finally living in Topeka. On our way Topeka my dad was telling us how great Topeka was but when we arrived I didn’t like it. This might be weird but the first thought I had was why are there so many trees. Don’t get me wrong I love trees but too many are just too much. I was then upset to see that there were no mountains around. After unpacking all of our stuff my dad took us to see the restaurant. The restaurant was really nice and super close to our new home. The next day we were out searching for a school to go to but we first checked online and then went to the closest one. When we got there the staff was super welcoming and everything but then again I was not ready to start school. My brother also was not ready and wanted to leave. After doing …show more content…

“Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” wrote William Shakespeare (TN II.v.128-31). Greatness has been thrust upon Matt Morrison in Crow Lake, Paul in “The Rocking-Horse Winner” and Prince Hamlet in Hamlet; however, greatness in the eyes and minds of young characters is seen and thought as a burden, but for their moral good. There is more than one reason that sacrifices a child makes of loyalty to his\ her family can have long-term negative effects. The first reason to explore is Matt Morrison’s sacrifice of giving up his dream to go to university.

Last year I moved from Guttenberg to Manchester, which moved me from Clayton Ridge to West Delaware High School. The whole move was a speedy process. Before we moved I only knew 3 people that attended West Delaware and out of those people, none of them are my age. I was upset with my parents for putting me in the position of leaving all my friends that I had finally gotten used to, to move somewhere where I didn’t know anybody. A rush of emotions were coming onto me; fear of losing friends, anger and resentment towards my family for not telling me until they had already bought the house, but also excitement because I would be starting all over again and meeting new people.

One of the most difficult things I have ever experienced is moving to Idaho before my junior year of high school from Utah. Despite this being a common occurrence for people it was hard for me because it uprooted me from the community I had lived in for the past seven years, and the people I loved. It caused me to leave friends that I grew up with and that I couldn’t imagine leaving. And forced me to meet new friends and discover a new place. As I have had time to reflect on my experiences it causes me to realize that it doesn’t matter where you are, or the people you know, but how you react in the situation.

It’s that time again, another move, it seems as if I was just arriving in Arizona yesterday. It’s not as if it came as a surprise to me: I’ve known my entire life to not get attached to people and to expect a move every few years. It’s just tough finally finding friends and belonging one second, then starting all over the next. It wasn’t all that bad at the beginning, when I was younger, but as time went on and siblings began to leave, I started to feel alone. Living in two different countries and three different states throughout high school was tough on it’s own, but after my brother, my last sibling at home, went off to college, I felt empty and incomplete.

It was a rainy, gloomy afternoon, my sister and I were watching TV when we heard my parents talking to their friend about moving to Florida. My sister and I looked at each other with confused faces and asked each other if we are moving. Of course, we were clueless because my parents did not mention anything about moving to us. We asked my parents if we are moving and they said yes we are going to be moving to Florida.
