Imagine being seven and in a foreign country seeing all types of new things. This is what I experienced when I went to Yemen in 2007. It was a world different from my own‚ but little did I know it would change my life. Seeing things from a different perspective really does change your view on the world.

The first place I would pick to move to is the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Everyone forgets about this part of Michigan‚ half of the time it isn’t on the weather maps on the news. I think it would still be hard because I would have to pick up my life and transfer it to another world. At this point I understand that I would have to give up the luxuries I love so much. I would keep my phone but I cannot take my entire bedroom‚ my car‚ or my school with me. I know a lot of my family would stay put

Not Your Average Theatre Kid I am a shy person. Teachers seem to love me since I stay quiet in class and I do my work. I hear drama left and right about this student and that student. I am a quiet person. Except when I am on stage. I am a different person when I am on stage. I am loud and I am proud. I am able to leave the shy girl.
