Personal Narrative: A Hard Moment In My Life

979 Words4 Pages

A Hard Moment A really hard time in my life was before I moved to Smithville. I was having a really great time at my school, but I remember my dad talking about this new job he got. I didn’t really take any note of it until he told me that we would have to move. I had moved about 2 other times before this and it was hard, but not very much because I was young. I had been in California for 6 years, so I had a lot of friends there. It was really hard for me to grasp this idea because I really didn’t want to move away from this school and all of my friends. I started to get kind of depressed because I just didn’t know how it was going to be in Smithville. I wasn’t even sure if I was going to like it or the people there.

I can still remember that day like it was yesterday. I came in late to my first period class because I was going to do some PT for my leg. My teachers were pretty bummed that I was leaving, but it was my friends that really were sad. Throughout the day I got a lot of cards which was super nice and made me happy.

Some begged me not to go and even though I really didn’t want to I knew that I had to.

On the day we had to move we flew up there and saw our new house. My parents had gone to see it, but I hadn’t really ever saw it before. I had to admit it was a really cool house. A few weeks later we settled in with all of our stuff and registered me for Smithville Middle School. They didn’t have me start until another week, so I got one final break before I would start up again. The first day for anything is always

    Moving Day The day I moved from the small town of Independence to Virginia Beach was one of the scariest times of my life. Independence is an extremely small town of around 900 people with one stop light. Living in a greatly populated area with absolutely no friends or family other than my husband and my youngest daughter frightened me beyond what I thought I could handle. I cried out to God to give me the emotional and physical strength I needed to make it through this life event. Finding daylight at the end of this moving tunnel that was spiraling out of my control did not seem possible.
