I was enrolled in cyber school; STUDY IN JAPAN/ Adaptive person

prompt: in what way do you feel you are an adaptive person. ?

Sometime in the sixth grade me and my family started traveling more. Although it was a great opportunity for me and my family, it wasn't so convenient for me and my schooling. There was no way I could miss weeks of school at a time nor would my parents leave me home alone for that long. I needed a way to go to school and travel. Luckily living in the twenty-first century has it's advantages. I was enrolled in cyber school. It was a accredited public school, with a curriculum, teachers and I could access it anywhere. Finding this truly unique program, Even though it was different from what I was use to allowed me to keep up with my work while traveling the country and the world.

One of the places I went during this time was Bermuda, I was in ninth grade and it was my first time being on an island though Bermuda is not the most exotic island in the world. Me and my family were very shocked to find how expensive the food was. As with most islands food has to be imported and therefore is expensive. since Bermuda doesn't make a lot of it's own goods most food is imported. We were only staying there a week we figured four-hundred dollars for food would be enough. We were wrong. After three days we were down to sixty dollars with 4 days remaining. Since we were in a very touristy part of the city I decided to talk to people on the island. I figured the people who live here couldn't be paying that much for something as basic as food. My search lead me to the conclusion that almost everyone cooks their food and rarely goes out, so I asked where is the closest grocery store and walked to it. Once there I bought lunch meat and bread and went back to the hotel. we had sandwiches for the next three days. The last day we had dinner at a ladies house who was very friendly and probably felt sorry for us eating sandwiches every night.

Through all the travel, I was still able to keep my grades up. Once I graduated high school I decided it was time for a change. I was raised in a small town, So I knew I wanted to go to college in a big city as opposed to a traditional suburban campus. My first thought was New York City. I applied and Thanks to cyber school, I got accepted. New York City was my first real experience living alone, and also living in a big city. The busyness of the city, Hoping on and off trains, the crazy crowds. The whole mentality was a huge change for me, a change that I welcomed. It was a different atmosphere from the place I was raised in, but after a couple weeks I didn't only adapt to city life, I thrived.

Although it was a great opportunity, it also used to disturb my studies a lot.


....nor would my parents leave me alone at home for such long periods.



.... hey this line is too long. It would read better if you shorten it
