The last time I moved to a new environment was about three years ago when I changed schools. I thought the new school would be better for supporting my future and other interests. The challenge was that my old school consisted only of girls, while the new one is a regular school with both boys and girls. Being at the old school for three years made me nervous because I didn't know how to interact with them. You know what I mean? I didn't know how to react or what they would think of me. I had only talked to girls for three years, and that was a challenge. But now, I don't think it was that hard. At the end of the day, they are just people. Everyone is the same, no matter what gender they are. So I don't think there are many problems. I adapted by thinking of everyone as a friend; everyone is a friend, and everyone is the same. I don't care how they think about me. All I do in this school is study anyway, so it doesn't matter how they perceive me or whether they like me or not. I just focus on myself, and that helps me overcome all my challenges.
