"Dad the last box is done!" I yelled.My name is Tayla and today is my last day in Savannah Georgia. My dad found a new and better paid job in New Jersey. I'm not like all the other girls that would be complaining about changing schools in the middle of the year, because quite frankly I hate it here. Everything was amazing until high school. Then bullying started taking place in my life.
But maybe this big move to New Jersey can give me a fresh new start.
I grabbed the last box I just finished packing. I walked down the stairs slowly making sure I don't trip because the box was so big. I made it to the bottom of the stairs which was my living room, my dad was taping a box closed and my mom was in the kitchen packing up some glasses. She stopped what she was doing and walked over to me.
"Hey sweetie, I'm sorry about moving I know how much you love it here." She said with a half smile.
I've never told my mom about how much I hate going to school because of my bullies. So in her eyes I'm a happy kid.
"It's okay mom I'm so excited to see New Jersey!" I said with a smile the could reach cheek to cheek. She smiled and patted my shoulder.
"Okay who is ready for jersey??!"My dad yelled in a playful manner. Me and my mom laughed and raised our hands.
We grabbed some of our last boxes and put them in the moving truck. I grabbed my Jonas brothers poster (aka my most prized possession) "see ya in 12 hours nick" I say in a seductive tone. I open the back door of my dads car and hop in.

I was asleep curled up in a ball in the back seat when my dad started pulling on my sweatpants. I woke up and saw him with a huge smile on his face. "Welcome to New Jersey m'lady." My dad said making me burst out laughing.
My eyes lit up when I saw how amazing the house looked it was like a dream come to life.
I opened the car door and jumped out. I grabbed my suitcase and walked up the pavement to the front door. My dad jogged up the pavement with a key in his hand and slid it into the door.When my dad opened the door I immediately fell in love with the house. It had a large grand staircase and beautiful wooden floors.
"Where is my room?" I asked my parents with excitement.
My parents shrugged and laughed.
"Wherever you want sweetie." They said in sync.
My eyes lit up and I ran up the stairs to find my new bedroom. I came across this white room with gold stripes across one of the walls, I instantly knew this was going to be my room.
