I've made 4, but the one that sticks out big time in my mind is the latest one. Summer after freshman year, I moved from Lincoln, NE to here in Scottsdale AZ. It's burning on my mind right now since graduation is here. I don't really have any strong friends here in AZ, and I had really good ones in Nebraska. The move was both bad and good. One the good side, I'd've never worked out and I'd be a stick figure. Also I'd never have gotten into basketball, never get as exposed to different cultures like I have now. On the bad side, obviously I'm missing my friends really bad now, there was a girl who I liked a lot and I think she liked me to an extent, but I wasn't good at talking to girls at all, something I've improved at a little. It's just ripping me apart to think of Nebraska, I can still see streets that I traveled down, the Amigos restaurant that I ate at with my friends, just about everything. And now it's Arizona, where I just know I don't belong, I'm not that great of friends with anyone in my senior class, and those that I like are going to other Universities so it doesn't matter.I wish I could just go back to Nebraska for a week and just walk around during school days, maybe follow around some of my old friends, who I'm sure are different, I know that 1 of them is in jail, 1 is dead, and 1 turned emo from what I hear, but I still want to go back. What I really want more than anything is to go back in time with the physical and mental condition I'm in now and go back to when I first moved to Lincoln when I was 11. I hate thinking about Nebraska because I puts me in the state I'm in at this very moment, my chest is somewhat constricted, I know the move was for the best but I long to go back but I can't and I know it's best not to. I hate having feelings...
Yeah, I know what you mean...You think about going to college in Nebraska? But that out of state tuition sucks...
I'm lucky to say I have never moved. I went to the same school Kindergarden through 12th grade. But moving to college was a move I guess, but only like a hour and a half away from home
I've lived in four states: Alabama, California, Georgia, and two cities in Michigan. It's like women - visiting places is fine, but there are few locales that really reveal themselves when you're just in and out.
I lived in Connecticut for 13 years until I moved to Florida before my freshamn year of highschool. Now im a junior and I still dont have any real friends here. I still visit my friends during summer and winter vacations and their still the same but all I do while im in Florida is play and watch sports which I have no problem with but it gets boring.
I got lucky, my parents wanted to move to North Carolina last year because of the hurricanes and sh*t here in Florida (they're insurance agents so its worse for them). I am very happy that we didnt move because I love Florida and I couldnt imagine leaving all my friends and family to go to a place that I really dont like.
I've lived in Michigan my whole live but in a very unstable forum. I have lived in 20 plus houses.It's made me who I am, but then again it was a pain in the ass all through school. I went to a ton of different schools...and most of them only right down the road from the other one..so it was frustrating. I never got a chance to make true friends in Elementary and middle school like a lot of people do. So by high school I had casual friends in each class and what not but it wasn't like the best friends no matter what kind of thing. Outside of school I hung out with my own group of friends..which was alright I guess..Now I find myself doing the same thing as my parents did. I stay in one apartment for a year and then I feel bored and wanna move again. I don't think it's really a bad thing..but for kids trying to build lives and friends in school it is and I will try not to do that to my kids when I have them.
I was born in Egypt - I moved when I was 3 or 4 so it wasn't too big of a deal. I don't remember it anyways...than I moved from Egypt to Novi, Michigan. There I went to elementary school and made some really close friends. After that I moved from Novi, Michigan to West Bloomfield, Michigan...there I went to middle school - I made some really good friends there too - probably most in my life because I still stay in contact with them. After Middle School, I moved to Bloomfield Hills for high school. I started off with absolutely no friends - and came out with a lot of life friends...I still see those people a lot.In college - in Detroit, it's totally different - I'm really friends with everyone, and I've even developed some close friends. So ya - I've moved a LOT!
I hate moving, luckily most everything I own can fit into the back of my truck and what can't I probably don't need. I especially hate moving my family, they own sh*t that they have absolutly no use for. like when my dad got kicked out of the trailer park, we had to find a way to move 3 cannons. I have no idea why the hell he needed them for, I guess he thought the Yankees were going to be attackin again. BTW, we did the typical hillbilly thing and loaded them onto pickups to finally move them.
Born and raised in Memphis.I cant imagine moving away. I feel sorry for kids who move around alot though.
I moved from Phoenix to Chandler. That's it. I'm pretty lucky. My dad got some promotion offers to California, North Carolina and a couple other states but we never moved.
I've changed homes about 3 times when I lived back in Oakland. They were all around the same area, and I have a lot of memories from back then. From 0-3, I lived in this house about 4 or 5 houses from my Grandparents old house, which has the most memories in my life. I moved to my cousins house after for a few years... and we finally bought our own house after a few years.. that was until like 5th grade.. and then we moved back to our cousins house again for a year..Then I moved to Castro Valley in 6th/7th grade, about 25 minutes eastbound from Oakland with a car ride on the freeway, ultra mega super rich white suburban area of the Bay Area.I'm gonna be here in CV for a while..
No, I've always lived in Halifax, Ns, Canada...I've moved houses once when I was in grade 3...That really sucks STS, I can feel your pain....
I've lived in the same house all my life, and I think I'll never move, at least until I go away to college.
I was born in Dallas, then moved to Colorado when I was 1. That is all. My parents moved a lot before I was born, but now we have settled here. I love it.
I moved from Virginia to Dallas when I was 9. It was hard at that point, but I got over it.I don't know if moving from Dallas to College Station is a big move. It is far away geographically and a much different place socially, but it's not so different culturally. It was not a hard move for me that time.
