Life Experience in Your Hometown

English Composition 101
Section HUML
Assignment:
When I was eleven, I don’t think I could have imagined what would
happen to me in the next five years of my life. My family’s past was easy going but, I
never thought I would experience such large changes in my own life. I was born in raised
in Harvey, Il but, I consider my hometown to be Tchula, Mississippi. When I turned
twelve years old, my parents moved myself and older sister to a middle class suburban
community called Harvey. I remember it like it was yesterday, I was the new kid on the
block trying to make new friends; to forget about my old friends. I succeeded, I met a
girl, that lived across the street from myself, who would become my best-friend. We did
almost everything together, walked to school, spent the night at on another’s houses and
she ate diner at my house almost every Friday night. Although, my mother worked
full-time, she made sure dinner was prepared once my sister and I got out of school and
my father was home from work. I remember my mom would run my dads bath water and
she made sure he had the biggest plate of food. My father, adored my mother for this, he
made sure she had a new car , while he drove an old beat up truck. My father, definitely
was head of the household, when I wanted to go to after school dances or go to the mall
with friends, my mom will tell me “go ask your father.” Both of my parents are from
Mississippi, in the summertime they would send me down south to visit my grandparents,
I did not like visiting Mississippi due to many mosquito bites I got and McDonalds was
to far for my grandparents to drive to. When I turned thirteen I, expressed how I no
longer wanted to visit my grandparents in Mississippi anymore, my parents agreed. On
my fourteenth birthday, my parents gave me a surprise birthday party: every party my
cousins, aunts, uncles and my parents
