Although I was not born in Arizona, I still feel as if I am an Arizona local. I moved here from Florida at five months old. According to my parents, I cried nearly the whole road-trip here. But, as soon as we arrived to the Phoenix-area I stopped crying as much. I concluded that the main reason I stopped was that I knew this is where my home is and there's you should not cry. Arizona is my home for more then one reason.

I consider Arizona my home because I was raised here and many of my first experiences have occurred in this wonderful state. We moved from a condo into a house. It had been in that home that I took my very first baby steps beginning the first steps of my life here. After my first steps in living came my first birthday, and following my birthday came my first spoken words. My golden birthday was celebrated at the local Peter Piper Pizza. I started school at Sunrise Pre-school, which began the socialization process. It didn't simply take much time for me personally to meet friends, and to be a the main dancing class there also. Eventually came time, and I was able to proceed to bigger and better things.

Along with the next major step up school came friends that I still know through high school, and experienced experiences with. In addition to these events, are my teenage firsts: my first kiss, my first work, my first sweetheart, and my first love. My one and only sweet sixteen was celebrated here. Soon I'll celebrate my eighteenth birthday, which will enable me to vote, allowing me to create a difference in our community. In May, I'll graduate in one of the top high schools in town, with high academic achievements. After graduation, I will hopefully attend a college within Arizona, considering this is where my life time is.

After school, I intend to travel around visiting states, places and landmarks. I also want to travel outside the state as well. Yet, still being faithful to my house, I'll stay here, get married and start a household here understanding that is one of the better environments for children to cultivate. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alamo_Dam Alamo Dam] is a engaging library for further about the purpose of it. Phoenix contains schools with high academic expectations for elementary and high school students allowing many options to achieve life after school.

Those who have not been here imagine the Grand Canyon and pure desert with cacti. Residing in almost the middle of the state, I've traveled to many of the parts of our beautiful state. Different parts of Arizona have different situations. Nearby the colleges, a culture socializes. It's more of a small business environment, with women and men inside their work uniforms and briefcases, In the event that you go downtown. Climate changes in different areas at different times. In Flagstaff, it's somewhat cooler with a pine forest landscape, unlike in Tucson where it's simply desert, and always warmer. Tucson contains destinations visitors are drawn to; Kartchner Caverns and Tombstone. Phoenix is similar to Scottsdale, that are larger cities, unlike Sedona, and Prescott. There are malls, theaters, stadiums, amphitheaters and several parks within the larger cities unlike small ones, which are quainter. However if you are smaller cities, they've their particular beauty. Sedona has the great red rocks, and beautiful pines up in the mountains, which get snow in the winter. Prescott in my experience appears more of a camping area for people who love the outside. More up and near these parts north are many “touristy” internet sites including the following; the one and only Grand Canyon, Slide Rock, Snow Bowl, The Rim, Tonto National Forest, Four Peaks and The Four Corners. All of which bring in our visitors and cause them to become enjoy this state.

Arizona has little to no injury facets lots of the other states have. Our monsoon time doesn't even compare to the blizzards, earthquakes, tornados, hurricanes, floods, and tsunamis that occur around the globe. To compare additional information, we recommend you take a gander at: [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuba_City Tuba City]. Our climate is nearly ideal considering. We may get to a high around 112 degrees, nonetheless it is just a dry heat. With your temperature being so large, most houses and communities include a share, which is really a source for several to benefit from the hot weather, and cool off in. We discovered [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alamo_Lake Alamo Lake] by searching books in the library. In Arizona, nearly all of our activities are inside to keep the Arizonans cool through the days. In winter months, it seems too cold to natives, since most have not lived in the northern states. Those in the north feel as if it had been their spring, and that their winter coats with fur, and layers upon layers are useless here. For me, it's the perfect temperature. Nothing can be as great concerning sit by the share in the summer and get a nice golden tan.

Living here in Arizona keeps us from our family in other parts of the united states. Yet, living here still keeps us close, considering my fathers work. He is a pilot and didn't want to commute everyday over a cargo plane, so he moved his base to Arizona. We may fly anywhere anytime for a low-price in order to go visit outside friends and family, since we get travel benefits. My dad’s parents live in North Dakota, my mothers family lives in Puerto Rico, and my godparents live in Florida.

Illinois is my home. I grew up here, educated here, and I'm comfortable here, and do not want to leave any time soon. Arizona is not just how some might picture us. We are not only a desert. As an alternative, we have our own kinds of forests, national parks, different weather conditions, and living conditions. This state is my one and only house, it's continuing to cultivate, and will where my life blossomed. Arizona is my house, and it is where my life is!.
