Aiden J
Humphreys Middle School
Being a military child means moving around often, meeting new people, and learning new cultures. I was born here in Korea while my mom was supporting the military. My mom raised me while working as an engineer. When I was 4 years old I moved to Texas with my brother and mom. However, moving to the states made it so that I couldn’t be near or live with my dad. This did not bother the 4 year old me. I enjoyed living in the states and my dad would visit during a long break period. I was able to adapt easily and make friends in my new school. I also learned English almost instantly after attending school without much help. I stayed in America until I had to move back to Korea. I didn’t really miss my friends that much because I was only around 6-7 years old. I was able to adapt just as well as when I first moved to the United States. 4 years later, I am still in Humphreys doing fine in school. I am grateful that I got to move back to where my dad lives and meet new people.
