Personal Narrative: I Am An Air Force Kid
I am an Air Force kid. Though seemingly single- faceted, this simple fact is easily the most defining characteristic in my life. Nine moves and eight schools later (including three high schools), I can honestly say that the experiences gained by this have developed both my personality and courage beyond what I could have done in a more stable environment. Walking into the unknown, whether it be another school or trying out for yet another soccer team is no longer a point of anxiety for me, and as a result my flexibility as a person has stretched farther than it would otherwise. Another marquee characteristic in being a frequently moving Air Force child is the opportunity to experience the plethora of cultures present within the United States.
