    all of them, military brat.... plus, do you count schooling to receive professional licenses? Like, real estate school, insurance school.... guess if you count nursing LPN/RN, which are licenses and not necessarily bachelors degrees (that's a BSN), then those count?

    oh god.... i just realized I haven't lived in the same place for more than 3 yrs my entire life.....

    Wait until you do. It is the weirdest feeling in the world. Even now, after being in Indiana for over ten years, I still get the urge to pack up and move.

    Yeah, I have lived here for 12 years now and am going crazy lol. I keep waiting for a manila envelope to tell me I'm moving lol.

    :laugh: I do this, too. It drives my husband crazy that I want to move every few years.

    Let's face it, we are scarred for life! :ohwell: (But in a good way. )

    Yeah, for a couple of years after my dad retired, I had to keep myself from standing up for the anthem in movie theaters. So embarassing when you're a teenager :embarassed:

    Nothing crazy here:

    K-2: Catholic school in Baltimore, MD
    3-8: Catholic school in Austin, TX
    9-12: Public high school in Austin, TX
    College (4 years): SEU in Austin, TX


    Not much of an exciting resume there! Born in Dallas, moved to Baltimore when I was 2, moved back to Texas (Austin) when I was 7 and have lived here ever since!

    2:

    I grew up in a small town (30 people in my graduating class) so K-12 was all in the same big building. Then off to the 13th grade, aka community college.
