Three years ago, my mom was offered a promotion. Her passion for her old job began to dwindle. This offer was like icing on top of a cake for her. The catch was our family had to move to Indiana. This was a really big decision for all of us, but most importantly for me because I was the deciding factor. I thought to myself what it would be like to be around something completely different. All new people and a whole new life. I arrived at the conclusion that it was time to move; not just for me, but for my mom.
The move to Indiana happened right after summer break started. Our house sold right away once on the market, so it gave us only a couple of weeks to get everything packed and moved out to Indianapolis. With every box put into the moving …show more content…

A whole new school, a whole new group of friends for the second time. This time was the hardest on me mentally; I cried everyday for the first month and didn’t make any friends for a while. One day I met a girl named Kara. She became my best friend and still is today. This encounter changed my outlook on society for the better. ** add paragraph about how it changed my life for the better**
I became more confident at Franklin. I joined three choirs, student council, Business Professionals of America, and a freshman mentor. Like Ralph Waldo Emerson in his poem “From ‘Self-Reliance,’” I started to be my own person and I felt “what I must do is all that concerns me, not what the people think”(45). When Emerson says to trust yourself, take his advice. Be the best person you can be and do not be afraid of who you are. We all need that extra push to be comfortable. That extra push comes from within us. Always “trust thyself” to be truly content in whatever you do and wherever you go (Emerson
