CHANGE FACTOR

-

CHANGE has always been something that we as humans have never Favoured. To BE torn Away From your comfort zone and placed in a whole new situation isn’t easy, and switching school for me is no exception.

I would say that I am quite comfortabl­e with change at this point. I left Australia when I was in grade 3, having to adjust to life in the UAE wasn’t easy but it was necessary at the time.

From there, I was educated in the same school for 7 years, cultivatin­g friendship­s and overcoming obstacles. THEN once more, CHANGE struck. My mother had decided that it would be best if I switched schools for Grade 10.

Naturally, I declined (not that it mattered anyway), I still had to change.

Not only was I leaving all my friends, I was reverting to my original, Australian curriculum.

As challengin­g as this may be, it was made a lot easier when I was surrounded by friends.

At irst, It was quite Apparent that most people had gotten the wrong impression of me. Most people wouldn’t really want to talk with me, except those who took the chance to get to know me, regardless of what was said about me.

Change was always something that was apart of my life. One prominent aspect of change throughout my life was my parents’ divorce.

THIS particular Event was probably the one change in my life that affected me the most.

Despite all this, change is necessary in human beings.

Without changes, life would be the same loop of events.
