July 22

"We're moving," my mom told us while holding my dad's hand with a hoping smile.

"What!" my sister and I yelled in sync.

"Where?" I asked my parents.

"Pennsylvania," my dad answered.

What! I mean I knew my parents were talking about moving to Pennsylvania because it's so pretty, but I didn't think that we were actually going to move there!

"What!" my sister and I yelled at the same time again.

"We were hoping that you guys would be excited, but I doubted it so I'm not surprised by your reaction," my mom said.

"Ha ha ha, very funny," I said sarcastically.

"That's not fair! I have friends here. We have family. Why are we just up and moving all of a sudden?" Victoria, my sister, asked.

"Why not. Plus, we've been talking about moving to Pennsylvania we're finally doing it," my dad answered her question.

"That still doesn't explain why," I told my parents.

"Forget about the why. It doesn't matter. We're moving and that's final," my mom sternly stated.

"Yes ma'am," Victoria and I said at the same time yet again. We don't usually talk at the same time, but sometimes we do. I'm guessing this is one of those times.

"Now go upstairs and start packing. Since we're moving almost across the country, we cant move every piece of furniture we have. We're only moving the little things. We've been saving money so that when we get there, we can buy the stuff we didn't bring," my dad told us.

"Ok," I said as Victoria and I started climbing the stairs to our rooms to start packing like we were told.

Wait! I feel like I'm forgetting something...... oh yea!

Hi! My name is Katia Olento and I just turned 16. Its summer right now so I will be in 11th grade. My birthday is on July 18th. I'm currently living in Texas, but as you can tell from our conversation, I am moving to Pennsylvania. My skin is a tan color, I have medium brown hair, and I have blue-grey eyes.

I love creatures! Not like tigers and stuff like that. Don't get me wrong, I think they're cute, but that's not the kind of creatures I'm talking about. I mean werewolves, mermaids, etc. That kind of stuff. No I'm not goth so get that out of your head. I just think they're cool. I don't remember when I started liking them I just know that I like them.

Well.... that's me! Back to the story.

Uuggh!!! I don't want to move!!! Why!?! I have friends here. Family lives around here. There definitely isn't family around Pennsylvania. You know what, I'm not going to make that big of a deal about it. Because it could be for a good reason. Whatever that reason may be.

So like mom and dad said. Only the small things. So lets start with clothes. Then I'll fold all of my blankets and sheets and put them in a bag with my pillows. I'll bring my lamp with me too. Of course I need to pack all my posters and electronics. My lotion and perfume. I also need to pack my Scentsy burner, snow globes, my movies, etc.

I think that's it. Everything else are big pieces of furniture. *Sigh* I'm going to really miss this place. And my friends and my family. And.... Texas. I feel my eyes start to water. I am really really going to miss Texas.

What about the holidays? We wont have any family to spend any of the holidays with! That's going to suck. WOW! I just noticed something. This is going to be a wild ride... and I have to pee.
