School Life

My new home

In the last five years, I have traveled across the United States with my mom, brother, Gazzy, and my sister, Ella. The last actual friend I had was Kevin a person I knew before my mom took on this project. He is sweet but defiantly not my type. I have not seen or talked to him in five years. We have been to Chicago, Florida, New York, Texas, Louisiana, and now Arizona. We all grew up in Chicago. Gazzy is 12. Ella is 13. I am 14 I am the only one going to high school. Mom did say that all of us would be going to the same school. Gazzy just made the cut off so we are all going to the same school.

The reason we move all the time was that my mom is a marine biologist. She really hates moving us around all the time but she has to. She is doing a project about making the water cleaner. She say soon they'll to make the air cleaner too.

"Max…...Max" My mom said

"What" I said still looking around the window.

"I know you're upset that we're moving again."

"Honestly I think Ella and Gazzy are more upset then I am" Because they actually try to meet new people.

"Guys I'm sorry we had to move again, but the good thing is I think we are going to stay in Globe for a whole year."

"OH Joy!" I said in my OMG could we just get their voice so I can go to my room and stay in there for the rest of the night.

"Max stop being such a downer" Gazzy said.

"Well I'm sorry that were going in the middle of the year. It's not like it the beginning of the year it's the January!"

"Max stops it."

I turned to the window and looked out it. I saw mountains. I draw and this will be some great landforms to sketch. I cracked a smile. It is very peaceful her.

"Ok we're here."

I quickly got out of the car to see a huge house. I hurried to grab my bag and raced up to my room. We all knew our way around because mom took us up here a couple of times to pick out how we wanted everything. Our house was consisted of four bathrooms, four bedrooms, a kitchen, dining, eating, den, and living room. We had an attic and basement. All my furniture was already in and fixed how I wanted it. I unpacked the rest of the boxes. We all got good at packing and unpacking by now. I grabbed my black leather jacket and my sketchbook and ran out of the house.

"Be back before dinner."

"Kay mom" I started to look around. There were some pretty houses out here. As I turned, I closed my eyes to feel the wind on my face stepped and ran into someone, and she knocked her down. I opened my eyes to see a girl rambling on about how sorry she was.

"It's ok I shouldn't have closed my eyes." I turned around about to walk off

"I'm Monique, but you can call me Nudge."

"Maximum but you can call me Max."

"What grade are you in?"

I sighed and turned back around to face her. "I'm going to start my freshmen year tomorrow."

"Why are you starting in the middle of the year?"

"My mom is a Marine Biologist, so we move around a lot." Does this girl ever stop talking?

"Oh that sucks."

"Yep…...Well I should go ok."

"Ok bye."

Finally, I was alone. I walked across the street into a forest preserve. I was just wandering around when I saw the most beautiful place in history! "Wow" I muttered. I saw a lake with a mountain in the background and the sun was setting. I quickly grabbed my sketchbook and started to sketch the landscape. I got every detail up to the birds in the sky flying above me. I always wanted to fly. To feel the wind on my face that would be wickedly awesome if I could fly. I suddenly realized the time. I quickly grabbed my stuff and rushed home before I got in trouble. I start school tomorrow. I walked in the door to smell chocolate chip cookies. Yes, my mom makes the best chocolate chip cookies. I also smell the other food and sighed a sigh of relief did not miss dinner. Everything was unpacked so I could relax until dinner. I walked up the stairs to my bedroom laid on my bed and I turned the TV. After a while, my mom told me to come and eat. I fell asleep with the TV on. I woke up in the morning to my alarm clock going off. I pressed snooze for the tenth time and fell asleep.

"Max gets up your going to be late for your first day of school.
