I always felt bad for the new kids because the teen years are hard enough without all the added drama of being the new kid. I appreciated seeing it from the other side, your side. I did move quite a bit after college and finding new adult friends could be viewed the same way.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-72807552884633856342011-01-13T16:28:57.398-05:002011-01-13T16:28:57.398-05:00People usually think wisdom comes with age but you...People usually think wisdom comes with age but your experience proves wisdom is something you are born with. You were wise to use the disadvantage of always being the new did into a skill that's carried you on into adulthood. The plus is that now you are able to share this with others. <br /><br />I'm looking forward to more of these life lesson posts.Margothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07422981969760935118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-46200715527146129642011-01-13T13:58:09.442-05:002011-01-13T13:58:09.442-05:00This habit, formed in childhood, of sitting back a...This habit, formed in childhood, of sitting back and observing has made you a GREAT writer!Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01739982274914536036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-89824660967518799452011-01-13T08:27:54.816-05:002011-01-13T08:27:54.816-05:00I moved a lot as a kid too.

I think the most nerve-wracking move was changing schools sophomore year. <br /><br />My approach was to zero in on people that seemed interesting to me. People my gut said, try them. Then I would gather my courage and and approach them. <br /><br />I still do it today when I am in new settings. It is a skill for life.soleilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06912665327917655751noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4972951595926878159.post-18341264324979078882011-01-12T22:15:27.671-05:002011-01-12T22:15:27.671-05:00Whether it was in our PE courses or at the playgro...Whether it was in our PE courses or at the playground, I was usually picked last for almost every sport.
