“Is everyone packed and ready to go?” my mom asked. ”We are going to be late,” my dad said. ” I don't even know where we are going,” I mumbled. ” We are going to THAILAND," my family yelled! Have YOU been anywhere like Thailand? In my opinion, being a military child is unique, fun and exciting.
My first reason why being a military child is unique, fun and exciting is because you get to travel to exotic places. For example, I went to Thailand over the winter break and I got to take a picture with a monkey. My friend got to hold a baby tiger! Another example is when I went to Korea I got to get my ears pierced! and I tried a really yummy Korean corn dog! Finally, when I went to Tokyo I got to do the soba eating challenge and I got to see Taylor Swift at her concert and Olivia Rodrigo and Disneyland. That is why I think being a military child is unique ,fun and exciting.
My second reason why being a military child is unique, fun and exciting is because you get to meet new people. For example at school me and a mamasan are in a gift giving war. Another example is I have a lot of Japanese baby friends that I go on adventures with. Finally I had a Japanese baby friend that lived in my neighborhood and we would jump on the trampoline together. That's why I think being a military child is unique, fun and exciting.
The third reason why being a military child is unique, fun and exciting is because you get to eat new foods. For example, I got to try shrimp tempura, now it's my favorite food! Another example is I got to try so many sobas and ramens. My favorite is Okinawa soba. Finally I got to try a Japanese candy called “ramune”, which is my favorite candy. It melts in my mouth and tastes like soda. That's why I think being a military child is unique, fun and exciting.
There you have it! Now you know about all my military child experiences.Y ou get to travel to places like Tokyo, Thailand and Korea. You also get to meet new people like my Japanese baby friends. Finally you get to eat new food like shrimp tempura, lomonai and soba. I hope you liked reading about being a military child.
