The Perfect Place
Ten years ago I used to be a dreamer young girl living in a place where dream was kind of an impossible. I dreamed of the most extraordinary place in my mind. Being a Cuban girl, have a perfect and free place to live was just a fantasy I imagined to escape the reality. The reality of my poor land dominated by hatred and will of a group of people that have not wished at all of seeing a free Cuba.
My perfect place had abundant lights; it was bright and colorful, wide and where everybody lived there own live without been on top of others life. The place had many ways for everybody to choose what they want to do and how they want it to do it. There were beautiful houses, big and small but comfort houses, where the winter, spring, summer and fall had the magic of have their time so everybody could enjoy them. During the cold weather wear nice winter clothes, open your arms and look to the sky letting the snow rest on you. It will be good to going to a park with fulfill trees of flowers during spring; or revel in of a gorgeous and clear beach in summer, looking at lake’s surface as smooth as glass, reflecting the lovely summer sky. The sounds of the splashing waves against the shore provide no better cure for insomnia. Feeling the relaxing breeze of the fall while you take a nap on a leave’s mattress makes you be transported to other dimension. The good thing is that as an eighteen years old girl I understood that was almost impossible to be in a place like the one in my dreams. So it was only an escape to in my mind.
I only had to close my eyes and there it was my dream perfect place. Some images from a fairytale movie perhaps. A place so amazing it had to be the most similar to what we call paradise! My very own place has wide streets quite people and brilliant photo ads. It has an intense, blue, clean and vivid sky during the day and a glittery dark and peaceful sky during the night.
The perfect place or better say, perfect dream that it feels

    When I open the door it was like a home filled with love and purity my ideal home it was just perfect. As soon as u walk in you see an average size kitchen on the right and a big bathroom with a bedroom on the left and when you keep walking straight there is a living room and a balcony with the most spectacular view of the pier and upstairs there is a bathroom and two rooms. For the first week or so it felt like I was in heaven waking up in the morning and looking upon the whole town covered in fog going to the rocks and looking for crabs, snails, and shells. One day we decide to go to the ocean and although it was cold we went and started searching for shells and then we found something that I happen to know what it was but never actually felt it alive and fresh out the water. I picked it up and showed it to my friend and we started running to the apartments and showed everyone what we found,everyone had their mouths open and started to touch it. There was a tiny voice that started to say to put the purple starfish back because it deserves to live and so i went back and tried to go as deep as I can to lay it down so no one will harm it. For many days we went to the beach till sunrise to sunset watching the tides rise and decrease and seeing the…

    My special place is the country in Bristow, Oklahoma. When I am in the country I hear the goats “baa-ing”, the stomping of their feet hitting the grass, the pigs snorting, rolling around in the mud, and the dog barking. I see my two children running around messing with the dog and running away from the daddy goat. My dad and grandpa are drinking beer and messing with a car or staring at each other. The baby goats are following their mother around everywhere. There is nothing but green grass and a bunch of energy from the animals. I smell goat poop, the pig’s nasty, natural smell they have and the fresh, beautiful, dirt road air all at the same time. I see green grass, a bunch of big, green trees, and pretty flowers bloomed. I walk behind the…

    Imagine walking along the dark shale cliffs of the English coast. Down below the waves crash upon the cliffs creating a soothing wish wash of sound. The rays from a sunset cast shadows that stretch out before you. A bird takes flight enjoying the thermals that the days heat has brought. Everything feels perfect. The temperature feels not one degree too hot. The wind whooshes gently and soothingly. The sounds blend together to create a melody of music. The salty smell of the ocean washes away all troubles. One only finds all of this in dreams. Most people have wished for this experience at one point in their lives. Welcome to a Landscape From a Dream.…

    When traveling to another country or even just simply another place, we are oblivious to certain surroundings. We do not see how the choices we make while we are guests in this foreign place effect the natives. We expect sunny skies with no rain when visiting warm tropical places, but that is not what is wanted by the natives of this territory. Jamaica Kincaid dives into this controversial issue in her story; “A Small Place”. Kincaid gets her message across by targeting tourists. Although she targets the tourists, she likes to show both perspectives, one from the tourist and one from the native so the reader can put themselves in one of their shoes. “A Small Place” by Jamaica Kincaid uses word choice and tone to portray the feeling of being…

    So I can only imagine how in such as place as Cuba, were the developments mirrored those of Venezuela, suffered under much faster, destructive, and violent torrent of changes, and became the tragic example of cruelty and abuse under centralized authority. Thus, my grandmother’s journey into Caracas, and my grandfather’s emigration from the expanding Soviet State, led to my eventual birth in the city, and my later experiences as a Venezuelan displaced and forced to leave for my own protection. However, thanks to the liberty I can live and thrive in on a day to day basis, I can choose, create, and learn without fear of some of the basic necessities being confiscated to kept from me. I can grow without fear of growing too much for the safety, comfort, and pleasure of a group of people who never have and will never care about my wellbeing, and that confidence is something that I can truly appreciate now as someone who has seen what it is like to live without…

    I was lying down on my lonely bed, looking at the ceiling fan go round and round. I was surrounded by the thin, white walls and the sounds of bickering outside by my parents. I breathed in and breathed out the sweet air that is circling around me. This was my normal life. Everyday, I go upstairs to my boring bedroom, set down my backpack, get out my headphones, and let myself wander through the beautiful…
