I have made a decision

I have finally made my decision. I am going to move with the family.

Last week we found out that my dad got his job at Penndle Hill so we finally knew where we would be housed for at least a year.

For me knowing where we were going to be staying and finding out that I can still apply for Quaker Schools made my decision easier. So I am glad/ sad to say that I will be leaving the West Coast for at least a year. I will either be going to Friends Select School or the local public high school. Friends Select is a Quaker School in central Philadelphia. My mom and I will take a half an hour train ride together and we will only be about ten blocks away. My sister had visit the local high school and says that it is nice and is about the same size as the school I go to know.

I think this a good decision because I will stay with the family and not have to just have phone conversations with the occasional airplane trip to visit. I will miss everyone in my yearly meeting and it will be hard to leave every Quaker that I know and have been around for thirteen almost fourteen years. I am excited for the new year ahead but it is extremely busy until we move and I hope that I will have time to slow down and check in with everyone on the West Coast.

My family is leaving California sometime around the 15th of August and we will be having a good bye party in Berkeley on the 12th of August.
