Final Draft
               

    Its early morning, all our bags are packed, and we are saying our final goodbyes as we depart to our new life, thousands of miles away.   For little kids, a new home across the country can be an amazing adventure. But, for teens, a move this big can be devastating. Because I would be moving thousands of miles and leaving all my friends, a move to Seattle would be unbearable.
    First, a move to Seattle, WA would be difficult. Leaving my friends would be hard. I wouldn’t know anyone within 1,000 miles.

If you were a trouble maker, you can be a better person now. It would be a great chance to make new friends. No one would know you, so you can be a new person. You have no reputation, so you can hang out with whom ever you want. The family would have more money from the job promotion. There would be an easier home life, with a new bigger house. More money would be available to spend on clothes and school.
    In the end, moving to Seattle wouldn’t be a very good thing. All of my friends would be left behind. I’d have to make brand new friends. There is very little chance that I’d see my old friends. Adjusting to a new school would be hard. I’d have to find my way around a new big school. New teachers would be hard to get used to. The only upside is I can be a new person. I can get new clothes and have a new look. I can change a bad reputation to a good one.
    The bottom line is, moving to Seattle would be...
