Whats the Hardest Things About Being a Girl/ What Will You Miss Most If You Suddenly Had to Move
Journal Prompt 1

I never really got to experience high-school like everybody did. Instead I was stuck home in hospital home-bound because of surgery I had on my ankles. I'm currently fifth-teen and I missed my whole ninth grade year as well as tenth. Sometimes I look back and say to myself this sucks, but the truth is I will never be able to experience public high school. Whether I like it or not Home-school is the best educational source for me right now. Home-school can be a disadvantage , I lost all my friends from being stuck at home, so most of the time I get very lonely. But even though I'm lonely I still keep a smile on my face and make the best out of every situation I'm in. One day I’m going to grow up and become the most successful black actor of my time just like my idol Will Smith. I want to be able to be recognize and to let the world know that it doesn’t matter where you come from or what ethnicity you are you can still be successful , accepted, and live out your dream. Chasing after the industry dream always have consequences, whether you lose contact with your friends or even stop talking to your family. But I believe the biggest consequences of them all, is having to move to a different city and leaving behind the most important treasures of your life.

Moving can be hard and emotional to most people. Living in an unfamiliar area or different surrounding makes you miss the old times and memories you had before you left your original city. I've always wonder what life would be like if I suddenly had to leave the current city which I reside in (Jacksonville Florida). Who would I miss ? , What would I miss ? , Who will I not miss ? , What will I not miss ? , these thoughts pass through my head on a daily basis. “When it come down to it”, I know sooner or later I will be leaving Jacksonville Florida and moving to L.A, but for now only time can tell.

If I had to suddenly move to different state one of the most things I would miss is the

    Two Places of a Different Kind From time to time, people move for many reasons. There are many changes they may encounter. I once thought that if people lived in one state and moved to another they would have similar living conditions, but that is not true. In my case, I lived in Texas but was originally born and raised in California. Learning to adapt to a new environment was troublesome in many different ways.…

    I hate moving, as im sure we all do. My next task was to find a place to live that was actually worth the work that comes with moving. Somewhere permanent. After searching the newspaper and scrolling the internet day after day, I found it. A two thousand square foot custom built home, in the middle of nowhere, yet still only a 15 minute commute to civilization.…

    The last day of school came quickly and I had to say goodbye to everybody. This was pretty sad for me because of how long I knew everybody at school(I’ve spent at least a thousand hours at school) and this made me be bonded to a few people at school. The whole experience was sad but it wasn't nearly the hardest part of the transition of countries. The last weeks Me and my family went to chicago for one last time. It was around this time that I started to get anxious about my move to Poland. I would sit in my room and think to myself What if I don’t like Poland? What if I can’t learn the language there? What if the school there isn't nice? What if it will be a bad place to live? Looking back on it I think that the reason that I had much more anxiety moving to Poland then I did when Moving to Chicago was partly caused by the fact that I had grown up a bit in the two years that we were in Park…

    The end of 8th grade, the end of middle school, was a scary time for some, myself included. After the summer, I would be in a new building, with new people, teachers, and subjects. It wasn’t going to be a smooth transition for me, being an introvert for the most of my school career. My grades we in a great position, that wasn't an issue. I had always been able to maintain my grades. A large part of that was that I hadn't had internet for the past several years. The issue, however, was that high school was a place where it was pretty much required to be social and to go out of your comfort zone. This is also why I was hesitant to take up an offer that would eventually benefit me throughout my years in high school.…

    I like to travel; experiencing different cultures and customs is always refreshing. I still remember my Europe trip, I tasted foods that I had never experienced, the Eiffel Tower was vivid, and the Leaning Tower of Pisa was majestic. Traveling to a foreign country always excites me. However, moving one's roost to a foreign country is a different story. It felt very frustrating to adapt to the new circumstances. I was no exception. After moving to several other countries, I felt tired and scared of moving. I strongly protested to my parents about moving to America, yet I had no choice but follow them. At that time, I did not know that moving to America would be the most important turning point of my life. The reason that I moved to different…

    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…

    Most people have moved before sometime in their life. For me, it was only two times. The first move was an international move from Vietnam to the United States of America, when I was barely 8 months old. At the time, it was just my mom, dad, and me, moving across the world to start a new life. Something I have learned from moving is that it is hard to change your life, home, and environment but if you give it some time, nothing is impossible.…

    It was the morning of move in day. I said goodbye to my home and headed out. I passed the local shopping market and my high school where I enjoyed a fun four years. As I headed to Norman I realized I was leaving everything I had ever known. All my life has consisted of living in the same house, going to school with the same kids, and going to the same supermarkets and restaurants. While I’d like to say I have developed a good idea of the world around me by visiting so many cities around the United States, in reality the only world I’ve ever known is the same one I have spent my whole life in. I have loved growing up in Northwest Oklahoma City with the friends that have helped shaped me into who I am today, however I relished the opportunity…

    Everyone knows how hard it is to move to a different country or state. As for me, moving to another state at such a young age is very difficult to adapt to. Moving to another state has changed my life so much and also changed the way act. On the other hand, my family can start new, such as meeting new people.

    “You’ll never make it,” they all said, my boyfriend, family, teachers, and friends. It was like my life was already figured out for me, as if I didn’t have a say. The message was loud and clear. They all expected me to fail, to settle for a minimum wage paying job, to settle for just a high school diploma. For a while I went around believing that all I could do was the minimum required. But then I realized that I was capable of doing so much more. As time went on I realized that I did not have to live up to other’s low expectations and I started making a name for myself. I knew that studying a little harder for every test, joining clubs, volunteering, and running for leadership positions would later pay off.…

    As Forrest Gump once said on a park bench, “ My mama always said there’s an awful lot you can tell a lot about a person by their shoes, where they’re going, where they’ve been.” As I get older, the more I realize everyone has a story to be heard. However, mine cannot be told by the shoes I wear on my feet. It can be told by the way I carry myself through everyday life. At a young age I quickly became accustomed to chaos. My father’s second home was a prison cell, and my mother’s first love was drugs. This caused tremendous stress on my siblings and I, myself being the second youngest of four. Despite all of the adversities I have faced thus far, I can take pride in saying I will be a first generation high school graduate with aspirations of college.…
