I was overseas....I came home from school and my dad was gone and we had to move back to the states...so then the house was gone, my school, my friends - and the next thing I know, I'm split from my family, going to school in freaking IOWA and sleeping on my aunt's couch....it is hard to lose everything, and I always wonder what it is like for people (especially the kids) who don't even know the language of the country.....
