<p>I lived outside of my school’s “zone,” because when I moved within the same county I didn’t want to have to transfer to a new school where I didn’t know anyone. The rules allowed me to stay, but didn’t allow me to take the bus. For the rest of sophomore year after I moved, my mother had to drive me to and from school.</p>
<p>So, it was a huge improvement when I was able to drive to school, especially with all the extracurriculars I did (should I list them in my signature, lol). And when I started doing the cross-enrollment thing senior year I absolutely needed to since I sort of switched schools in the middle of the day. I ended up having to pay a lot in gas, but it was worth it.</p>
