part 2

My parents are from this country. My parents have migrated from Baltimore City to Baltimore County. Me and my family lived in Towson.  I was born in Towson Maryland.  My mom and dad then moved to Randallstown to be closer to grandparents on both sides, and then we moved to Owings Mills.  We had lived in two places in Owings Mills because we had to wait for our new house that was being built to be finished in Harford County.  To me it was a long journey to Harford County; when we arrived in Harford County I was still going to a Baltimore County Public School because my parents did not want to pull me out during the middle of the school year. When I was transferred to a Harford County Public School it was different and I really had to adjust to the behavior and actions of the kids in my area and class. As my family and I adjusted we were very well known and had many friends. All my aunts and uncles lived and still live in Baltimore currently. One pair of my aunts and uncles that actually migrated from an area is my uncle Duane and my Aunt Jillian. They migrated to Baltimore with most of my family in 2002 from Arundel County.  My Aunt Jillian is from Jamaica.  Her whole family is from Jamaica, and she still calls and keeps in touch with them.  Only her mother and sister are in the United States.  My grandfather (pop pop Joe) was born and raised in Baltimore and lives there now. His wife, which is my grandmother (Me ma) lived in North Carolina when she was younger. When I talked to her last night she said “the adjustment from living in North Carolina and moving to Baltimore was a major transfer in her life , new school , new home , new people , a new life , basically a new everything!! Hahaaaa” also she said” North Carolina was free and not as cluttered at Baltimore was” My great grandmother Millie who is 87 that I  talked to today said “I can’t quite remember where your great aunt Teresa lived , but if I can jog my memory ; you know I’m getting old Darryn. But from what can I remember she lived in Trinidad. I think that’s in Venezuela. Hahaaa’ I’m still not sure I’m too old to be remembering these things Hun”.  As you can see the majority if not all of my family is in and from Baltimore County, my parents wanted to try and do something different so they moved to Harford County.

part one

            In less than eight years I will be done high school and in college. I would love to make it professional in either basketball or football. This change in my life to play any professional sport wouldn’t allow me to have one steady home in an area. The second thing I would love to do is become a lawyer or something that has to do with owning a business. One place I would love to settle or live in is Miami, Florida. Some pull factors of this place is the beautiful oceans, sun, palm trees, hotels, amusement parks, and resorts. In addition at the age I would be at I would love to party and Miami Florida, from what I heard is one of the most popular places for clubs and party’s. Some push factors for leaving and going to a different state is the dullness of this state and how boring it is. Another push factor is that the crime rate and irresponsible behavior by people in this state is dangerous, which makes me want to leave. Another place I would love to settle or live is Las Vegas, Nevada. If I lived in Las Vegas I would have a nice steady job, but the word going around about Las Vegas is that it is the city of lights. When I’m at the age I will be at I will love to party and I will enjoy examining and looking around Las Vegas. I will enjoy Las Vegas because of the person I am. Some pull factors of Las Vegas are the bright lights, the amazing acts/entertainment, the food, and the so many things to do. Some push factors away from Maryland are that nothing really goes on in Maryland besides the crime, and mostly I would just love to get away from my parents.
