Military Teen's Moving Guide

 

Charles Schultz (who created the comic strip 'Peanuts') once said, “Life is like a 10-speed bike; most of us have gears we’ve never used.”

This move will introduce you to gears within yourself that you never tried before.

 

Tips

“Always have a Plan B. If you think about the ‘what ifs’ ahead of time, you’ll make things much easier on yourself.”

Heloise, Syndicated Columnist

Stories

“I was complaining like crazy about having to move to Edwards AF Base. I kept telling my parents over and over how I hated even the idea of moving. Then, like a week before we left, I think my dad got fed up with my complaining and said to me: 'Josh, since when does liking something determine whether or not we should do it? If we only did what we liked, there'd be no dentists and probably no high schools.' How can you argue that? He was right.”

Joshua, 17
