My Story

 My Story

 This is going to tell you a bit of my life. I’ve lived my whole life in Turku, Finland and moved only once, but not very far from my old house.

 I was in the same school for nine years and had a lot of friends from kindergarten in the same school as well. So it was quite sad when I started high school and all of my friends went to different schools.

I’ve lived in my current home for about nine years now and I cannot believe how fast time has gone by!        I still feel like we just moved here a couple years ago.

 The house I lived in before this one was a row house and there were three other girls, who also lived in the row house, born the same year as me. We all became great friends and all of the kids from that yard including us four girls and all of our brothers and sisters played together. I’m still friends with these three girls and hopefully will be for the rest of our lives.

At first it was strange being in a new school where I didn’t know more than a few people, but after a couple of weeks it had all changed and I had met lots of new people and made new friends.

It’s a lot harder for me to go to school now because it’s so far away compared to my old school, where I could walk in under 10 minutes. Now I usually get a ride to school from my parents or go by bus. Our classes are now 75 minutes instead of 45 what we’ve had for the last nine years, so it was quite confusing at first but I got used to it.

My new school is very nice and a little more interesting than my old one.
