Personal Narrative: Moving To Baltimore

The Phoenix Zoo, located in central Phoenix, is home to more than 3000 species of animals, including 30 species that are considered either endangered or threatened. This zoo is located about twenty minutes from my home in Phoenix so I decided to go to the Phoenix Zoo with a few of my friends from High School over Spring Break. The first thing I noticed when I entered the zoo were all of the native Sonoran tree species I recognized from pictures in the video presentations in the course such as Mesquites and Palo Verdes. The size of the zoo was a little intimidating as it contains hundreds of enclosures spread over 125 acres. The zoo was extremely clean for how many people were there, and the weather could not have been more perfect on the day I went. It was about 75 degrees without a cloud in sight. The zoo is made up of a winding

Zoos and can be places where the imagination and creativity of people, especially children, can come alive and inspire them to tread avenues that they never expected they would take. In the early years of my childhood, I spent many hours observing and studying wild animal exhibits in zoos in Seattle Washington. I would imagine myself in my dream world as zoo keeper or a veterinarian helping animals and knowing them each by name. As I studied and let my imagination run free; I knew that someday, somehow, I would be involved in the care of animals. Without the establishment of zoos and, I would have never realized my dreams and perused a career in biology and animal care. Animals exhibits are places of wonder and study for scientists and everyday people, without them, most people would never have to opportunity to see even a quarter of the life that populates their globe.

Zoos are found everywhere you go in the world. Some are big and popular, while others are something as simple as a rescue and rehabilitation center. Every child loves going to the zoo at some point in their childhood years. As you get older, you begin to form an opinion on what you think about the overall ideas of a zoo. Some adults love it still as they grow older. As for others, they begin to see how zoo’s actually run and what all they do there, which then shapes their opinion either for better or for worse. Throughout the past few years, many documentaries have been released about what goes on behind the glass at different zoos and aquariums around the world. With the release of all these new documentaries, many people, including myself, have began to form

Busch Gardens is a very fun and exciting place to go on vacation. “The Dark Continent/ Busch Gardens, a famous theme park and zoo, and attracts millions of visitors annually ( “Tampa” 23).” Busch Gardens attracts millions of people a year for its intense and African animals. ” Many visitors are amazed by their events and attractions (“Tampa”). “Busch Gardens is a fascinating African zoo and amusement park ( “Tampa” 19).

Ethical decision are not simple choices between what is right and wrong. Managing ethical issues made more difficult when one is directly involved in the situation The decision made must be balanced between the pros and cons in order to satisfy all parties . This can be created by methods of analysis which helps to resolve ethical problems faced by the zoo management. I will apply the problem of unethical towards zoo animals especially suffered by the elephants with all three of types of analysis. Description of each analysis is as follows :

Obstacle--a word that most people in the world do not want to mention, but all of us have to face them every day in our lives. Some people have to face physical hardships, but others have to face spiritual difficulties. Overcoming these obstacles is very important for people to have a good life. Everyone has a personal way to overcome their obstructions, and each way has a particular lesson to teach us. I also have had to face many difficulties in my life, and my three big obstacles have been homesickness, car sickness, and studying English.

Well, who likes to move from one place to another place? Well I am not a big fan either. Also moving from one place to another in the city is painful, I realized that when I helped my cousin to move from one apartment to another. I feel it’s too much work such as bag packing, carrying, organizing everything and many other things. Also takes a long time. But it does have an impact on our lifestyle, even if it’s a move in the same city or different state or country. Everyone has some kind of special memories or relationship with that place. Some people move for education or work or some for the new beginning. I actually moved two times in my life. First move was from India to California and another was from California to Ohio. When I moved to Ohio it was actually my first time ever visiting Columbus. I

We all grow up with different surroundings, people, and cultures. I was born in Hood River and lived here for three years, then I moved to White Salmon across the river. My life in White Salmon was simple, I had two hard working parents and went to Preschool. I would play outside with friends, like a normal child should. I became older and began to attend Elementary school, I would work hard, do my homework, and occasionally read with my father. Up until I was seven my father had both of his jobs in Hood River, therefore we had to move back and I had to abandon everyone I knew. I attended another school with kids I didn 't know. Moving had dramatically changed my life.

Comparing myself to Kareem Kennedy would be like comparing apples to oranges or dogs to cats. In the book, “Aunt Alice vs. Bob Marley” Kennedy tells the story of him being raised in the Seventh Ward of New Orleans and how he overcame the struggles. He and I have few similarities, but many differences. To some degree, we had similar childhoods, yet I overall made smarter and wiser decisions than Kennedy. Not only are our personalities much different, still our decision making skills are nowhere near similar. From an early age he began making poor choices that really damaged his life.

At the beginning of this assignment, I choose inner city culture because I was under the impression that I knew at least a little about it. I live in the suburbs of Chicago, and my parents have often worked in the inner city, and so I have heard many stories. However, completing this project has shown me how little I know about other cultures, and how important it is to research before meeting a client.

“Millennium Park is a public park located in the Loop community area of Chicago in Illinois, US, and originally intended to celebrate the second millennium. It is a prominent civic center near the city's Lake Michigan shoreline that covers a 24.5-acre section of northwestern Grant Park. As of 2009, Millennium Park trailed only Navy Pier as a Chicago tourist attraction.”

The St.Louis Zoo has been one of the most memorable places that I have gone to ever since I was little. Going to a zoo that is really big and is free has always been something fun to do when I am bored. The zoo is something that is fun for the whole family and even adults. Zoo’s have so many things to do besides just going there to look at animals.

Central Park is a park in middle-upper Manhattan, New York City. Central Park is the most visited park in the United States. Nearly 37.5 million people visit Central Park yearly. It’s one of the most filmed locations in the world.

Zoos are an unsuitable environment for wild animals and should be abolished. A zoo cannot provide the perfect environment for every type of animal. Also, one of the biggest reasons zoos exist is not for helping animals in danger, but in fact breeding them for human enjoyment.Starting thousands of years ago, zoos attracted large crowds around the world. Because of that, everyone today has seen, been to, or heard of a zoo at least once in their lifetime. From the article Why Do European Zoos kill healthy zoo animals, it says “between 3,000 and 5,000 health zoo animals are killed in Europe every year”. Zoos generally regard the animals they keep as a product to be kept until sold. They’re regularly take away animals from their family group to

It all started June 13, 2007; when I first visited Key west, Florida for a family vacation. I was all excited about my first trip to Florida. First day in Key West I arrived late night, I was ready to go to bed to get my day started tomorrow morning and explore the Keys. Early that next morning I woke up, got ready and went out to eat breakfast with my family, I had an amazing morning that day. We went to the beach after that. The ocean was so beautiful blue as the shy. I loved it so much. Didn’t really like the sand too much it was really hard, broken shells all over and hurt my feet. Other than that I loved every bit of the beach. Days went day, I was having so much fun and then it was time to back home. Back to Cincinnati, Ohio. After spending a month in the keys I was happy to go back home. I was a bit happy to go back to my other family and the people I’m usually around with.
