After recently moving out of my mothers house, I wondered where my life would be headed. For some reason everyone else around me was congratulatory but worried. Where would I go? What would I do? To my surprise, I was shockingly cavalier, as they say. One of my best friends asked me a few hours after why I was so calm about the whole situation. Well, for one its an understatement to say that I was overjoyed. As soon as I walked out I felt like the chains that bonded me to that house had finally been released. As for finding a place to live I had faith that everything would work out for the better. And it did. I survived the summer, although having to move a miles away from my best friends.
And then some more bad news......
Unfortunately the move wasn't the only major change in my life. Changing locations meant changing schools. Now this was exceptionally hard for me to cope with because I'm somewhat what they call a "social outcast" or "wall flower". I know its hard to believe, but unless I feel really comfortable with someone, I'm just gonna be the awkward black girl in the corner. But to my surprise my new school is filled with welcoming people and my new guidance counselor insists on helping me 24/7. It is rough changing schools and leaving friends behind, especially in the 12 grade, but I'm a survivor. Lol Destineys child.
What hurt me the most was that i had to start fresh, I wasn't really worried about leaving my friends, yeah I miss them but I'm not going to lose any of them, hopefully. One of my friends actually told me that she wasn't worried either, because she knew that our friendship was one of those that wouldn't fade, or some shit like that. But it was really sweet and what I needed to hear.
So far its been an adventure.Imma Keep on keepin' on.
