The new chapter in my life was the day, my family and I moved to Fresno. We used to live in Los Angeles feeling crowded, hours of traffic, competition everywhere. It was time for a change getting away from problems. In a small little house crowded with eight people cause us a lot of situations that we couldn't deal with no more. Not able to have your own space, feeling uncomfortable in your own home was a terrible feeling. It was really hard to deal with it most of the time, not able to do your homework in peace, study for a big test, or even changing without someone knocking on your door to get in since we were sharing rooms. When I heard Fresno homes were cheaper than Los Angeles I was happy, I think we deserved a bigger space for each …show more content…
Wow! My jaw dropped. A new two-story house appeared in my eyes. Quickly getting out of the car and arrived through the main entrance. Two big living rooms, a dining room, a kitchen, five bedrooms, four bathrooms, a laundry room, and a huge backyard. I was in shock after many years of deciding where to move, this was the place. It was really a dream come true since we have a really big family everyone needed their own space.

Breaking away from a poisonous city was the best decision my family and I have ever made. We all feel more relaxed, at peace. In Fresno I don't feel out of place, I feel like I belong as if this is where I always needed to be, in this sort of area, around by so many kind people. I know moving here wasn't going to be easy, but by the looks of it, it will be worth the ride. So far we all better jobs, do better in school and find a better friend to go to. This was a big event for all of us feeling scared and happy at the same time. It was worth risking it all. Not looking back or asking our self what could've been. Distancing our family from many things it good, changing up old habits. Getting ready for a new for a new beginning, a new start, opening doors to
