My first big change
Everyone goes through a change big or small. About two years ago I went through what I thought was the biggest change of my life. I moved to Virginia in the middle of my sophmore year of high school. I knew a time like that would come sooner or later because I was an army brat. I wasn't a oridinary army brat though, because many kids moved every three years, but stayed in one place all my life. Once my parents told me we were moving, so many emotions went shooting through my head. I was so upset at the fact that I had to leave all my friends I knew since elementary and a boy I was becoming very close with. At the age of fifteen those things seem to be all that really mattered to me, so i couldn't believe i was going to have to start all over.

I enjoyed reading your blog. I could relate completely.Growing up I moved all over the east side continuously. It was an experience that I often found to be bittersweet. At the same time moving all over the east side taught me to be outgoing and open minded with the people I meet. Have a great evening,

This is a powerful beginning, but we don't get any details about your life where you were. Where were you? Did you live on base? What was your home like? What had you heard of Virginia before?
