I Am From

I was looking through some old school notebooks and came across this. It was an assignment from my cultural diversity class, and one that I actually put some effort into completing :)

I Am From

I am from mountain peaks and sunny skies.
Summer sprinklers, bare feet, flip flops.
Sand boxes, mud pies, swing sets.
I am from imagination and make-believe.

I am from snowflakes, snowmen, and snow angles.
Hoggle Zoo,Lagoon, camping.
Cabbage patch dolls, care bears, coloring books.
I am from Saturday morning cartoons with dad.

I am from love, support, strong family values.
Encouragement, expectations, standards.
Take care of what you have, opportunity.
I am from money doesn't grow on trees.

I am from work hard for what you want.
Blue A, Aggies, basketball.
Study, work, succeed.
I am from get along, you can't have too many friends.

I am from road trips, vacation, travel, laughter.
New York City, buildings, Broadway, people, busy.
Orange County, beaches, Disney, customer service.
I am from Seattle, lakes, rivers, tunnels, emerald.

I am from heart ache and heartbreak.
Keep on going, never give up, never accept less than perfect.
Don't settle, anything worth doing is worth doing right.
I am from image is everything, actions speak louder than words.

I am from controlled chaos, adrenaline, don't sit.
I am from. Me.
