The reason I chose the City of Livonia to have my dream home in is because it’s a great place to live. I would consider Livonia as being a great place to live because it’s a safe city to raise your children, it has good public and private schools, and you have many different places you can apply to work at. I currently work in Livonia, MI and I love being able to get in my truck and drive to my job anytime of the day and night because I feel safe. The reason I feel safe is because the police is everywhere in Livonia. I mean Livonia has it’s bad but not that many.
Another thing that is unique about where one grows up is the “lingo” and “quirks” that are unique to that family. On page 10, Didion talks about her and her family having a conversation about housing, land, and other things that are important to her and her family. Her husband, of course, doesn’t understand completely what they are saying and comments on the conversation not knowing that they are speaking in code. Didion here presents herself as sort of the “all American” child; having coded conversations with your family for most of us isn’t within the realm of possibility. Raising a child is one of lifes most rewarding gifts.
Even if it’s just a little piece of the puzzle I provide I will have helped in some way give a family the closure they will need when they are in need of comfort. I know I will also have the personal satisfaction of going home to my family every night and knowing that by doing what I do they are taken care of. I want to provide in every way to make sure my children are given the life that they deserve and the only way for me to insure that is to work for it. So, in conclusion I predict my future to be full of obstacles, rough days, and almost never easy, but also completely worth

The good I see in Oxnard is that we are right by the beach, so that gives us beautiful comfortable weather almost everyday. We are also well known for our strawberries and all the fields we have here. Although there could be room for improvement In Oxnard, such as making it a little bit more cleaner and trying to eliminate the graffiti and the gangs. Nevertheless Oxnard is my home and I come to love it just the way it is.
The class clown may have no drive to escape this 4-mile wide town, and the Homecoming Queen is content with attending the local community college. They are satisfied with their future plans, and the road they must take to achieve them. But, I want more than that. I want to change lives and allow others to feel “good” from success.
