In My Place

favorite place; that place can be in their imagination or a place where they can visit. It brings them comfort and peace. Their favorite place could release stress and sadness that has been bottled up inside them. My home is my favorite place; it indulges me with memories, life contemplation and comfort in times of need. After a long and tiring day of stress, I wait for the moment I go back home. As I enter my home, I breathe in a strong scent of warm vanilla, which reassures me that my mother…

don’t belong? Somewhere dark and lonely. A place that makes you feel like you are being controlled. I felt that way my freshman and sophomore year of college. I am currently enrolled in the Arts and science school. That is my dark and lonely place. A place where I felt like I did not belong at all. All my life I wanted to be a doctor. Since elementary school I knew I would go into the medical field. No one told me or forced me to be in the field. It was my own choice. I always wanted to be able…

Barnard English 1180 Prof. Elizabeth Davis October 5th 2017 My Room, My Safe Place, My Sanctuary There is no place like your room, it’s a place of complete safety. There is a loud creaking noise coming from the alarm clock, that sits on my bedside table next to my Pokémon cards, which as you walk away, is replaced by the two to four groaning base boards under my blue carpet. The noise of my busy family, reminds me I’m in a safe place to relax. The noise of the outside is still heard no…

For my reaction paper, I watched the movie “UP”. The film featured an older gentleman as the protagonist of the story. Watching the film from a social work perspective I was conscious of the stereotypes and issues reflecting older adults. My initial reaction to the film was that I was stunned at the amount of stereotypes the movie portrayed. The most noticeable was the personality of the main protagonist. The movie’s main character Carl embodies the “grumpy old man” stereotype. Throughout the…

My Favorite Place The Florida Keyes conjures up for me a myriad of memories and emotions, a peace and tranquility that no other place has been able to bring me too. I close my eyes and see the cerulean crystalline waters looking out of my dad’s tan 1986 Toyota land cruiser, trailing his 16ft flats boat behind us. This was my favorite part of the drive when we leave Florida City and pass by the edges of the Everglades onto that famous 7-mile bridge. I would get a first real look at the expanse of…

My Place The seats are filled, my mic is on, let’s do this! Stepping into the light I open my mouth to let the music flow out. I see it bounce off the walls while I belt out the notes. This is the my favorite place in the world, it has been since I was a little girl. This is the place where I learned that the stage was the place for me. Imagine a little girl who knows nothing about musical theater. Her aunt takes her to see a musical one brisk fall evening. The air is crisp and cool and the…

of all the places in the world I would pick Florida even though I have only been there once it is one of the best memories up in till now.I remember the week we went to the Disney parks and spend the weekend in Destin,Florida. I at that point have never been out of Texas and I am not going to lie kind of scared at the same time.The 18 hour ride was awful to start with because I became very inpatient to the point where I could be in the car any longer.But when we first entered Florida my dreams…

Home is a place that we all have lived in, but how do as humans point out what is our home and what is not?. Being human beings, we all have grown up in a place that raised us to be the person that we are today. Sometimes,there are those that feel that where they are born is not their true place and would consider another place as their true home. Places that we consider our home can range from a house, apartment, or even an orphanage. Home could be any place that you love or show pride for.It…

Last Place I have enjoyed playing basketball ever since I was a young lad – which is quite a good thing, because I would otherwise sit around all winter doing next to nothing, most likely. It is not that I feel accomplished when I am being lazy. The fact that wresting is really not my thing would be the root of me rarely doing productive things during these cold months if I did not play basketball. I once saw myself as a wrestler, but I am sure my parents and all of my other supporters did not,…

English Composition I 24 February 2013 My Favorite Place: Home My home is a place where one would expect such pleasure and enjoyment. This could be experienced as one would enter the front door of the home. As one enters, you would start to hear the sound of Disney XD shows such as Good Luck Charley or Ant Farm. Every television in the home will be turned up extremely loud with some type of kid show. It is then that one will understand and know, my home is occupied by children who may be…
