Narrative About Moving Away
I shoved the last of my clothing into a bag, anything I couldn’t fit into my luggage will have to be left behind. I’ve never realized how much stuff I had until I forced into a box; unfortunately, this didn’t stop from forcing as much as possible into bags, boxes, or luggage. Overall I packed almost my entire room. There’d be no room in my car for the mattress so it looks like the back seat will be my bed for the foreseeable future. No one’s home, or would be home for the rest of the night. My departure is a long thing coming and has been carefully planned to ease my escape. I waited until the night of Homecoming. I knew if any of my friends would try to stop me, they’d be too distracted to keep me here. As fate would have it, it’s also the night my parents and siblings are all busy doing their own thing, leaving me all alone on my last night here. this was not in the least a spontaneous act, it just wasn’t. In fact, I said goodbye to my friends a few weeks back so no one would try to stop me when I finally found the time to do it. It’s been exciting, waiting and preparing for this night the last few weeks, but everything is scarier up close. Nervous, how can I be nervous about leaving? As if leaving wasn’t …show more content…
I’m not suicidal anymore but I feel with every fiber of my being I cannot stay here. Ever since I started middle school, every odd year I would transfer schools and was quite literally to make a new group of friends over and over and over again. It was something I could set my watch to, and the constant movement had affected me - I had to keep moving. Staying in one place makes me irritable and bored, I feel too safe. So after much consideration I packed my bags and I’m getting the hell out of Dodge. Overlooking my now nearly barren room I relive an overwhelming sense of nostalgia. Everyone I love or even know would be left behind, but I can’t think of them, I am doing this for

    Who could've thought moving states could cause such a change? I never knew it could… this much. As the for sale was ripped out of my yard, we returned back into my previous house. This was the day we moved to hot and big Texas. We hauled all our boxes, big and small, short and tall, into the moving truck. “Let's go,” my mom yelled. We started our journey to Texas, and I could already feel sorrow in my heart.…

    I’ve worked my whole life to get to the spot I am in today, and now there is a chance it could all go away. When I began my adventure of college soccer, I thought it was going to be smooth sailing from this point on. That would only make sense right? Considering I’ve worked my whole life to make my dream a reality, and play college soccer at the top level. Unfortunately some problems that are out of my hands could corrupt the environment at my campus.

    I remember when they kicked us out. It was only a couple of weeks ago. We Indians were minding our own business when the troops first came. They dragged us out of our tents and sent us walking with only the clothes on our back. My family decided to go to the Oklahoma region along with our tribe. And so here we are, walking through forests, woods, and plains on The Trail of Tears, looking for our destination. We have been walking since, and our clothing can do nothing against the harsh rain, snow, and coldness.…

    College was my way out of this shitty town. I had no idea what I wanted to study or who I wanted to become. I had no role models to look up to, only counselors giving me options. After applying to colleges that my cousin forced me into, I knew this was my way out. I did not want another moment in this shitty town or place called home. Once I moved to CSUMB and meeting friends, the thoughts of wanting to die minimized. My journal writing decreased. I attended support group sessions that helped me meet new people. And then I realized I’m not…
