Transfered Schools - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

It is official; I am no longer a Livermore Cowboy. Today, I transfered to Vineyard Alternative. It is an exelent school that doesn't have the certain people that make my life hell. It is a fantastic program that alows me to learn at my own pace and make my own classes. I won't have these terrible people. I will be able to learn.

I'm going to be a bit happier. I'll have more time to be myself. Its going to be good.

Ah, that's fantastic news!

All the best for the future! Good luck!

Good luck!

I changed school when I was in the equivalent of 9th grade, seriously it was one of the best things that could have happened to me at the time and if I hadn't done it I probably wouldn't have done anything like as well as I did in school. Sometimes the move really is the best thing that could happen.

Congrats, that sounds awesome and sounds like just what the doctor ordered. A change of setting is always good, especially to one as good as the one your going to. Congrats ^_^

Amy · 18th Nov 2008, 06:22 PM

Thank you! I think it is going to be a great change for me.

Derek the Wolf · 18th Nov 2008, 08:01 PM

Congrats and good luck with the transition.

Congratulations!

I really hope you have a better experience there.

I "transferred" schools as well this year, and it's been great for me so far. I was sort of able to reinvent myself, as no one knew me, and I could really be myself more. I hope it's the same for you.

I feel really happy for you. I just moved back to the UK to do A levels and my school is not that great. It's Catholic so they're really intolerant about things like homosexuality. A well, it's only for two years, but it's good to hear that there are some excelent places like where you're at.

That's great! I have to wait until next year starting college to be in a different environment; I've been in the same environment with the same people for so long, this is the 12 year. Sadly the only mention of being gay is when someone is talking about someone or something they don't like. Glad to hear that there arent people making your life hell, enjoy it.

Congratulations Amy! I hope you will be very happy there.
