Why I Love Alabama?

Tennessee is by far my most memorable place. This place is far from my little town “the watta,” and getting there is a long ride. One can take a plane or drive all the way there but whichever you choose when you arrive it’s like going to paradise. The feeling of arriving you get is irreplaceable. Viewing the mountains from far is truly a peaceful place. It is filled with so much nature, it reminds us of how beautiful this world truly is with it.

Auburn University has always been a dream of mine to attend; it has been my second home for many years. My reason for selecting Auburn University over any other surrounding school is the friendly atmosphere along with the ambition and determination of the staff and students, which will allow any student to succeed.

To conclude, sunshine state has a lot of advantages that attract people to go and live in it. And I highly recommend people to live there because of the beautiful nature that puts people’s minds in peace, the friendly people who live in it, and the good living standards that Florida provides for its

We are going to talk about Florida’s history, economy, energy resources, famous, landmarks, and geography. It is a state with a lot of good people and places. It has a lot of history and beautiful landmarks. We are going to learn about Florida and everything in it.

I chose these two states to compare because they are the states I have lived in throughout my life and are significant to me. I was born in Wilmington, North Carolina and lived there until I was 10 years old. My step-father received a job offer in Islamorada, Florida and we decided to move. I lived there until I graduated high school, following which I came to Orlando to go to college.

One of the things I loved about Alabama was the southern hospitality of the people. You never met a stranger. You can drive down the street and people would wave at you like they’ve known you forever. Most of Alabama is farmland so I learnt how to plant a garden and work it growing my own vegetables than canning and freezing them. Homegrown vegetables always seemed to taste better than the ones you bought in the store. Maybe because a lot of love and hard work went into growing your own. I learnt how to gather eggs and milk a cow. Even how to churn my own butter. One thing I had to adjust to was the smell from the farms. Being from the city I wasn’t used to that and it took some getting used to. The scenery in Alabama is beautiful. From the majestic mountains, to the lakes we swam in. One beautiful place is called Noccula Falls. It’s a 90 foot water fall. Legend has it that a young Indian girl named Noccula fell in love. Her boyfriend wasn’t rich so her dad ran him off. Noccula was heartbroken so she jumped from the falls and ended her life. They say from time to time you can catch a glimpse of her spirit walking thru the falls looking for the love of her life. My sister Robyn took some pictures at the falls and it did show what appeared to be a young girl of about 17 in a white gown but it could

Mississippi is known for its many resources such as its writers, the recreational resources, and the many landmarks tourist can visit as they visit the state. I will attempt to discuss each in an effort to acquaint non-Mississippians with some of the attractions they can involve themselves. Your dream vacation, recreational activities and travel can all be accomplished in the Hospitality State.

The state that has been chosen was Wisconsin. The state was chosen because it seemed very interesting. The state was never visited by my family. What makes Wisconsin special is their famous team the Green Bay Packers. This report will be talking about how special and interesting Wisconsin is and will give you the urge of wanting to go there.

Vermont as a state is growing on me and I definitely feel a sense of place here. Ever since I visited Burlington I have been comfortable, the mountains and the lake are the main reason for my comfort. I remember being amazed looking in either direction and seeing the endless mountain ranges on the horizon, this was something I knew I could get used to. Perhaps the biggest reason I enjoy living in Burlington is it has a lot more going on than my hometown and also has a lot less going on at the same time. By this I mean, you can head downtown and feel the slight hecticness of a city or you can travel a half hour outside of Burlington and be surrounded by natural areas with little human population. I see Burlington, and Vermont in general as the best of both worlds.

The Souths that I fit more into are Athens and Savannah, probably because of the people and the atmosphere. For some reason, some students always love to bring up “community” and how it works so great in these small towns. Well, I hate to break it to them, but this community they are so fond of is full of what my coworker Savanah, a Blue Ridge native, calls, “People who want to get in your business and then stab you in the back. Don’t trust a lot of people here because they are fake.” The communities in Athens and in Savannah might not be as small as Blue Ridge, but the people manage to be friendly and are not nosy when it comes to your life. Not all my encounters with people here have been negative. I’ve made friends here and enjoy them, but they definitely are not like some of my classmates. What captivates me in this Blue Ridge South is the nature. It’s my favorite part of this place and it always will be because I sense that I am whole in it.

The University of Alabama and I possess a common vision: We are committed to enhancing the quality of life, not only for Alabamians, but for citizens of the nation and the world. There are numerous reasons I am pursuing the admission to the University of Alabama. First, the University of Alabama is nationally ranked as an affordable graduate program and is among the top five percent of nursing schools. Second, the academic content in the Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner program provides a strong advanced primary care base in support of caring for patients with common psychiatric/mental health problems. Furthermore, I am drawn to the University of Alabama’s continuous support of military veterans. I have had the privilege of serving in the Air Force for 8 years. There is an impressive amount of acceptance and support for military veterans through the numerous scholarships and Veterans Career Advancement in Nursing initiative.

I had lived in Virginia most of my life. I was surrounded with a lot of family, and great

If one was to visit Alabama, an area of interest to visit is the U.S. Space & Rocket Center. A state park nestled in the middle of Alabama is the Cheaha State Park. Another state park on the border of Alabama is the Noccalula Falls Park. A must see spot is Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo. Another great tourist attraction in Alabama is Waterville USA. There are many other great places to visit in

As a military brat, I was born and raised in Jacksonville, North Carolina; and have lived here for most of my life. Recently our family was stationed in San Diego, California, and the move was a great eye-opener for me. When I moved to San Diego, I was surprised by the diversity of cultures, the abundance of activities, and how the crowds of people never stopped. It is an excellent place for people who enjoy being amongst other people; there is never a lack of entertainment day or night. Jacksonville, North Carolina on the other hand, is more for people who like a relaxed and quiet family oriented lifestyle.

"One must return to the past in order to move forward", is an old African proverb that has been used to explain the purpose of studying history. This African proverb not only refers to the study of American history, but also the study of one's family history. Another saying that has been used to refer to the study of history is, "You must learn your history, or you are bound to repeat it." These principles can apply to education as well. The purpose of attending college is to receive a formal education. The proper approach to begin college level studies is to learn your school's history. Enlightenment of the difficulties and barriers during the early stages of a school's development; in
