I don’t like moving, well I like it but I don’t. I don’t like how people are in your house for at least a day and then you have to stay in your house with no furniture. However I like going to new places though. This was our 3rd move, and wasn’t going to be our last. Every time we move I feel like something has changed inside me, I feel like someone completely different. Tomorrow the movers were coming. I was scared and happy at the same time. Most of my fragile things were already bubble wrapped. I was pacing around my room trying to think of anyhting I forgot to do. When the truck pulled into our drive way it felt as if the temperature had dropped 5 degrees, even for a winter day. I knew that once it pulled away our lives would be changed forever. The movers came in with boxes and packing tape. First they talked to my mom and dad after that they started packing. The smell of boxes and tape hit me really quick. They packed up everything with little care, I knew somethings would be broken when our stuff arrived. We gave the packers pizza and coke, they had a really long break.

    Did you know that most of the U.S.A was just being moved into in the 1840's? There were benefits and consequences to those who moved west and the government. There were too many people moving out west and our relations with the natives worsened. Even though we wouldn't have Texas and California if we moved west, I'm sure we would still be able to California a different way than invading other people's land. The people of the U.S in that time period shouldn't have just gone in there and take over the land. The consequences outweighed the benefits by far, we worsen relations with the natives and we were losing people to the west.

Upon hearing that news from my mother, I was devastated. Devastated that I have to leave the place that I grew up, leaving all my friends and family. I have to travel 10,000 miles across the glove to live in a place I have never been to. I have very little idea about United States before moving, I have only seen this place through screen, watched movies such as "High School Musical." From what I have heard and seen life seemed so much easier and happier in the US, but once I stepped out of the plane, I knew it would not be even close to what I have pictured in my mind.

    I remember the days when we used to live back in Georgetown. We never saw many of the neighbours, just the occasional glimpse of them as the doors closed behind them.
