Each and every person has a different perspective on how we should be in society. Us as individuals see life through a different set of eyes. This paper will provide you a chance to look through my eyes, a little glimpse of my life.

I grew up in Fort Myers, Florida I have lived all thirty-one years of my life in this town. Even though it has change a lot over the years, I cannot imagine living anywhere else. Growing up my family consisted of me, my mother, my older sister and my father. These are the basis of my family dynamics that have helped shape my life. We are an extremely tight and traditional family. My favorite memories are when we would take our summer vacations and when the holidays would come around. The holidays were extraordinary because it was the only time that our house would be filled with family members. The guys would be in the living room watching football while the ladies and my grandfather would be in the kitchen. The kids would be running in and out of the house until it was dinner time.

Summer was the most enjoyable time for me. I was out of school, and we would go to places like Key West. Our trips to Key West were the most distinguished memories because we would do everything together: fishing, snorkeling, diving and sightseeing. Just writing this out I can remember a time when we were becoming certified divers.

    I didn’t really do much over the summer. We went to Indiana beach, and I am not too fond of roller coasters, or any ride for that matter, except for at water parks. Last year in 7th grade we went to Washington D.C and saw the washington monument, lincoln memorial, we went inside the Capitol building, The Changing of the Guard at Arlington cemetery, saw The White House. That didn’t really interest me, I don’t even have any souvenirs! Even earlier in the year, we went to Buffalo, New York. We saw a football game (the team we were rooting for lost,(TO THE JETS!) and we got to see Niagara Falls.…

I enjoyed my childhood there. It was a place where kids were free to run and play. Til this day it is still a place where kids can be free and mothers don't have to constantly fret about there child being kidnapped of the street. I remember being up the street outside playing jump rope, volley ball, kickball, football, softball, and basketball with all the neighborhood kids. When evening came and the sun went down I remember my mother standing in the yard calling my name for me to come home because it was getting late.…
