Personal Narrative: Moving Too Gillette
Moving too Gillette has been the most life changing experience. It may not seem like much, and it very well might not of been caused by me moving. But I am definitely a more mature person now. I used to be very moody, I felt like life sucked and that was that. I called that idea realism. I felt bad for myself at all my my tiny problems and acted like they were to worst thing ever. I was digging a hole for myself then complaining about how deep it was.
I thought that it was smart to think this way, though that isn’t surprising. In my mind everything sucked and that was the way it is. In my mind there was no if ands or buts, things sucked no matter what and that could not change. In a way I went through my emo phase before I was in high school.

    There are some spots that are hard to skate and I couldn't really skate well and no matter how hard I try I can't land it. There's some stuff I can do and I practice all the time to make sure I can get better I may not be the best, but I try my hardest on skating.Occasionally it's difficult to ride or it's not working out on what you want, but friends help me to do new tricks and that's why on hard spots I try my hardest even if I get a scrape or even a bruise may even have a broken bone but there's always going to be something hard to do but doesn't mean it's impossible the day could be hot or cold making it difficult to skate in but there's always a different spot.…

    Moving to northern Wisconsin as a young girl was a scary and confusing time. Having been born in Chicago, all I knew was a big city, the crowds of people, the nonstop traffic and all the noises. My home, it was the only place I knew. How could my parents make a decision like this? How could they make me move to a place I had only visited once before -- but barely remembered? The sadness I felt was so overwhelming during that transition that I told myself that if I ever had a family, I would never make them move. As an adult, many years later, I look back and almost chuckle. My family and I have moved many times, for work or family and even adventure. Now as an adult, I push my children to find adventure in every move…

    What I lived in the past two years taught me that I have to be open minded and make every situation as a learning experience. Sometimes things do not go the way we wanted them to, but that does not mean that that is wrong. I got mad when I was pulled down one year, but I realize that having another year gave me the opportunity to prepare myself better for college. I was able to take courses of my interest and that probably I would not have taken if things had happened in a different way. I now know that I can face any problem with determination and hard work because giving up it is not an option for…

    In high school, I was so nervous about driving that I did not receive my license until six months after my birthday. Even after I had my license, I would create reasons to have my parents transport me places. Now I am able to drive comfortably. I also have learned how to pump gas and use a credit card. Perhaps my biggest change in society is my understanding of how people view me. I can control the way people perceive me, and it is important to present the best version of myself. By being sloppy, you can harm job prospects or relationships without even knowing it. I now take into account the version of me I present to the…

There are so many things you need to do to maintain a house. It was hard at first but with time it became easier, and easier. It made me want to accomplish better things in life.…

    Watching everybody around me move while I stayed helped me know how lucky I am and be thankful for the things I have. I was never around other kids that much when I was younger so it has always been hard for me to make friends at school. Where I live has helped me realize that I am lucky, but it has also helped me see how lucky other people are which has taught me that there is always something to be grateful for.…
