Grew Up In Small Town

I believe its bettter to live and grow up in a small town because its more maderen and quiet not much happens in a small town but word does spread fast and you know everyone youu go to school with some times your teacher might even been your softball coach or sport coach in general. If you were to live in a big city you wouldnt really have that conection with people like I do with people I know in my small town. Its not croweded its decent and relaxing but can get boring sometimes. Teachers may know your siblings becausee they had you as a student in that class when you were there age. Its more homie and not so as Im alone because here people would give you the shirts of there backs to help you or your family and thats hard to find in

As a child, I remember growing up in the beautiful city of Detroit, Michigan. It was clothed with one hundred plus degree summers, 6 feet or more of snow winters. A building called the Renaissance, which housed a rotating restaurant on the Penthouse level. It was the Motor city home of General Motors and the Motown city of music. Growing up there was so much fun and amazing to me. Where we would watch the bright, red, blue, green and yellow fireworks on the Fourth of July at Edgewater Park every summer, participate in community activities at the 4-H club. There were barbecues with our neighbors, one of which had a daughter with the exact first, middle and last name as mine. On the one side of me a lady everyone referred to as Ms. Pat, use to bake fresh yeast bread from scratch, and would always share with me and my sisters. We could smell it while outside playing in the yard and inside the house. Then you had the neighbor across the street with the rough edge to them, where you would hear an argument or two every once in a while, but when Mama needed some help while my stepfather was away in the Army, she could call on Joey and he would always be right there with his "yes ma'am and no ma'am" etiquette. With the memories of all things good from the eyes of a child, seeing everything as

Mark Caine once stated, "the first step toward success is taken when you refuse to be a captive of the environment in which you first find yourself." Growing up in the Bronx, New York, this quote greatly applies to how the environment in which I grew up in shaped my aspirations. Living in the Bronx can prove to be difficult and it requires strenuous effort to find exceptional opportunities. Resources that are provided towards education are limited, meaning that most supplementary aspects that we need to obtain a "full' education is not granted to us.

Growing up in a small community exposes a person to unfortunate situations, such as crime, death, and poverty, that directly impact the quality of life. Experiencing different situations can physically, mentally, and emotionally break a person. It's even more challenging to remove yourself off the dark path that you have seen so many people go down. When you do break yourself out of the inevitable cycle of negativity, it builds your self-confidence and pushes you to strive for better. I feel that certain circumstances I have been forced to accept and experience have morphed me into the person I am today. I am person that works hard for everything I want to achieve. I am dedicated, and I will always remember the ones who have helped me in my success. This career plan is influenced by my community, much like my drive to attend college. My community has a lot of stray animals and only one veterinary clinic. Each time I see a pack of dogs eating out of a trash can or playing in an overgrown, empty lot, I am reminded of what I am working toward.

There are a lot of fond memories of growing up in Texas because I have spent most of my life here. Texas is a diverse state with many different cultures and languages. The opportunities are as vast as the many different areas of rural and suburban living. There are many different sights to see, places to go, and roads to travel in this big state. Texas holds everything that I love from my family to my friends. My Texas memories include various beautiful scenery, wonderful smells, the sound of music, the blazing heat, and the feeling of being home.

Deciding on a local company was not the easiest thing since the majority of what I consider a local company are a one owner or family owned business. Consequently, most of these smaller businesses have not expanded into other markets.

The play Our Town, illustrates the true essence of small town living. When living in a small town, people see a familiar face wherever they go and know the history and character behind these individuals. Life in a small town can lack options for entertainment at times; some may even categorize it as “dull”. Yet, anyone can see that Grover’s Corners, the town written about in Our Town, and Colby, Kansas contain a life full of personality and charm. The citizens of Grover’s Corners live a basic life throughout the majority of the play. The play portrays daily life, love and marriage, and how delicate life can amount to.

Growing up in small-town Pflugerville, I never imagined what life would be like outside of a "country" area - until I moved to Killeen, Texas. Killeen is a town full of hot-headed, military, city-slickers that clog up the highway like ants. Often, I think of times when I was younger - looking up at the clear, blue, open skies; the smell of fresh-cut grass always awakened my senses. Now, I look up and I see wires, buildings, cars, and smog. They always say "There is no place like home," and in this case, there are no two places that differ more than my hometown and the town I live in now. The speed of life, the buildings, and most of all, the crime rates are all very new to me. The world is like bowl of fruit, sometimes the taste of each point on a map can differ as greatly as apples and oranges.

Growing up in a small town, there may not be many activities that seem interesting, but the things that seem to interest you can define what kind of personality you have. I was born and raised in Pensacola; it has given me the opportunity to explore a town filled with history. Growing up in a small town has also given me the chance to meet new people and spend time with my family. Family has always played a large part of my life, because I am constantly talking to them. My mother is the oldest out of seven children and my father is the youngest out of six children, as a result, it has given me a large family and is has given me people in my life I know I am able to rely on. Also, being part of a Vietnamese culture, it has given me the

Living and growing up in a small town is better than doing so in a big city.

Starting in 1776, the United States was born a nation, which was run only by small businesses. Small businesses were made up of one to about fifty people and production was slow due to a lack of technology and capital. All small businesses were done by hand labor, which could take weeks to produce a product for the consumers. Many small businesses only had one specialty that they were focusing on producing because of such slow production and not enough money to produce several different products. Most small businesses were low supply with a high demand that raised prices high so only higher-class people could afford their goods.

I grew up in a suburb of Kansas City for most my life. Two years ago I moved with my parents to a very small town where my dad grew up. Growing up in a larger town has shaped the way I act and feel towards people. In the small town I live in now everyone knows everyone, and everyone knows everyone’s business. That was never the case when I was growing up people minded their own business for the most part.

Despite the fact that I’ve lived in several different places, I consider Burns Flat, Oklahoma the place that I grew up in. It’s here in this town that I’ve spent the most time in and experienced the most. It is where I broadened my horizons, made lifelong friends, and set a goal in life for myself. While I may be leaving this small and dusty town soon, it’ll always hold a place in my heart as home.

To put it simply, Geneve is quite reclusive. This being the affect of growing up in a semi-isolated area. She isn't fully anti-social, however she could go without much communication with others. She is a traditionalist, and believes in the ways she was raised on. Given, that's all she's ever known. Growing up in Halein, she became very accustomed to nature. Thus leading her to have a deeper connection with the world rather than humans. The Haleinian woman was raised by her father, Godfrey, along with her 3 elder brothers. Thus inheriting a few of their traits. Such as; a foul mouth, the ability to handle herself in a brawl, and the capability of surviving on her own. Geneve is thoroughly independent, only relying on herself. She would be classified

My hometown was pretty unique if you ask me. I grew up in the one and only Las Vegas Nevada. Although many people only see Vegas as a tourist attraction I was able to call it home. As a kid I could say living in such a big city was a little overwhelming, but it was definitely full of experiences and opportunities. Some of the things I liked to do while living here included going to shows , going to the my favorite arcade casino made for the younger crowds, watching street performers do magic tricks or sing your favorite songs it was never a dull moment. Las Vegas has a big Hispanic influence so you can typically expect to see many Hispanic restaurants on and off the strip. There was also a lot of fast food including one of my favorites In-N-Out
