I've moved to a whole different country, with different languages, styles, fads, etc. twice in my life. Since I'm pretty sure we're all teenagers here, what I think is most important in this age group is a good school. Really. By good school I also mean that you surround yourself with the right people. You need to go to places where it's likely to find others with similar interests as you, or may just be entertaining. You may not be able to change where you go to school and such, but that's my advice.

I did have one experience with a school of sorts; a thing hosted by the local (by local I mean the big city that was 50 miles away) science museum. It was good; it was one of the things I gave up when I moved. But even the friends I made there, and knew from another place I went to as well, just weren't the same as her. And even if I could, I don't think I'd want to go to a public school... I've had experience with high-schoolers before, back before I moved, and I don't know if every outgoing junior-high teenager is this bad (I doubt they are) but what kind of idiots write "DIE [ censored ]" in 1-foot letters in permanent marker on a playground meant for 7-year-olds? I've also heard so many horror stories about the teachers, and the subjects, and all in all I prefer homeschooling in every way except the home part. It's very solitary.

The world isn't perfect, but hiding from the imperfections around you instead of facing them is bad because you will be exposed to them sooner or later. Not to sadden you further, but college may be a bit difficult without high school experience. And I hope so very much that you do go to a good college. That's why I think high school is so important, however crappy it may seem at the time.
