Entry 32, Far From Home

  People will always change, sometimes the changes are great and sometimes the changes are bad, sometimes the changes are voluntary and sometimes they're not. It is not likely that one of us would go onto the battle and fight a war.(I hope not) Many times people will have to get use to their environment, sometimes they would need to adjust and adapt to the current situation they are facing. For me, coming from a family that moved alot, it is not a nice feeling to be the new kid in class. I hated being the new kid, where no one knew me, and I had to sit alone for lunch. No one wanted to play with you, and no one even knew your name. Many times, as no one knows each other, they would not tend to show their true self until they understand more about each other, and learn to become friends. I believe war time friends will last a long time due to the fact that you both share an extraordinary experience together, being on the battle field risking your lives together. When people are not use to the environment, or they do not know anyone, they would first seem serious and less likely to show their true self. I have been to many MUN conferences, and when you are put into a big conference room, with one hundred kids you do not know from other countries, you tend to act more like adults and become serious. As being in MUN conferences and being the new kid in class, I don't generally like this feeling. I do not like how serious kids can be when they do not know each other, it does not show their true self. I like how it gets me working harder, gets me more focused, but I do not enjoy the fact that I cannot talk and chat with the person right next to me about a situation that happened that we both know of and can relate to.
