Recommended: The typologies of travel motivation

After moving to Worland, Wyoming I came to realize one thing that I had never thought of before. That thing is that many people will spend their lives living in the same town without every traveling to any other states. This is something that I could never even imagine because by the time I turned fifteen I had moved eight times. To me moving was not all that bad because it allowed me to experience so many new things. It was always sad leaving my friends behind but I knew that there would be people in the new place that I was moving to, to be friends with. This is why when I moved to Worland and began to talk to other people about places that they had been I was surprised because there was so many people that never been outside the state of Wyoming. After many of these conversations I began to think about all of the places that I have lived, and how different my life would have been if I had not been able to experience all of them. I do not remember the specific moment that I was inspired, but I know that from a very young age I developed a love hate relationship with traveling. I love it because I like experiencing new places and people, but I hate it because moving so much can be really hard. Traveling has affected my life by making me more experienced, allowing me to get to know a lot of awesome people, and giving my inspiration to travel in the future.
Traveling has given me so many experiences that I never would have had before, like being in the Traverse City Cherry Festival. Traverse City was the cherry capitol of the world because they produce so many cherries each year. Because of this they have a Cherry Festival every year. During this festival there are a lot of activities that take place. A lot of these activities ar...

...ngs like these make me really happy that I moved a lot as a kid because if I had never moved then I would have never been able to experience the Traverse City Cherry Festival. This is one of the many things that has inspired me to travel in my life. Everywhere that I have lived I have met some really cool people and I hope that in the future I will meet more people through traveling. Little coincidences like this one are really cool and really make me appreciate all the people that I have met through traveling. All of the traveling that I have done so far in my life has only made me want to do it more. In my future instead of traveling from state to state in the future I want to travel to other countries. I do not know where my life is going to lead at this point but I really hope that it leads somewhere outside of America, and certainly outside of Worland, Wyoming.

  • Moving Away at a Young Age

    640 Words  | 2 Pages

    The day I moved away, a lot of things were going through my young mind. As I took my last look at my home, I remembered all the fun times I had with my family and friends through out my life. Now I was moving 800 miles away from all of that with no insight on what lied ahead for me. As my family and I drove away from our Michigan home, I looked out the window wondering what Virginia would be, and what my friends were doing. A lot of things were going through my mind at the time. At the time my main worry was if I would make any friends, and how I would adjust to everything. During the whole drive down, my mother would often let me know that everything would be all right and I would like it. Trying to be strong and hold back my tears, I just shook my head no, wondering why we had to move so far away. Life would be different for me and I knew it would.

    ... and I started to realize some of the good effects that moving has had. I now understand that this experience has changed me in positive ways as well. Soon I would have friends in different places in the world that I can visit. I would have many places where I could go and feel like home. Most importantly, I would learn that one can adapt to every town and its people and that friends can be made everywhere. Every place has its conveniences and its problems. Every town has its generous and heartless citizens.

  • Personal Narrative: Moving To New York

    1074 Words  | 3 Pages

    Throughout my life I have been traveling to and from New York and it has pretty much became a regular part of my life. I have left and came back multiple times over the years, from going on vacations to moving for good, but the most significant time was when I was moving out of New York when I was a kid. My parents had a reason to move down to Philadelphia so they decided that’s what we were going to do. Since I was born here and spent most of my early childhood here, the thought of living somewhere else was strange to me, as it would for almost any kid at that age, and I didn’t really know how life would be like outside of the neighborhood where I’m from. The part of New York where I grew up at was very neighborhoody in the Bronx, everyone

    When I was nine years old, my parents, two siblings, and uncle decided that it was time for us to move from Missouri up to chilly Massachusetts. Both my uncle and father were construction workers. There were so many projects in Massachusetts, it was sensible for us to move. Financially, this was also the solution to our money problems. All around we were all very excited for this move, all except for myself. About halfway to Massachusetts, I had a gut feeling that this was a bad decision. Upon arrival, I felt like a fish out of water and, I was. Everything was so different compared to how Missouri was.

    Reality hit me once I had to pack all my important belongings such as my cloths and room utilities. Once I started to gather everything, I felt weird because I only had a limit of two suit cases to pack all of my essentials.While packing I started thinking of the times I had been far from home but could not think of one because I had never left my house, only for vacations but I would go with my parents so I was technically not away alone. I started to get mixed feelings because I had never been far from home without my family. The farthest I had ever been was my grandparents house which was only about an hour and a half away. Unlike many of my peers that just wanted to go to college so that they could move out from their parents house, my situation was not the same. Just thinking that I would be more than two hundred miles away from home gave me a feeling of sadness because this meant I

  • Creativity

    NACCCE definition of creativity: ‘Imaginative activity fashioned so as to produce outcomes that are both original and of value’(NACCCE, 1999:94).Creativity can motivate children to learn new information through a creative outlook. One of the biggest issues teachers have is between teaching required content and integrating creativity into the daily sessions. The National Curriculum and state standard often create boundaries towards the teacher’s ability to develop the lesson, as the intention of including creativity sometimes resorts in a teacher centred learning environment. The teacher’s role should be to generate lessons and create activities that encourage students to be more open to their creative side. This is vital as it exposes children with varying learning styles to different ways of learning.

  • Imagination

    1026 Words  | 3 Pages

    The human imagination is a very powerful thing. It sets humanity apart from the rest of the creatures that roam the planet by giving them the ability to make creative choices. The imaginary world is unavoidably intertwined with the real world and there are many ways by which to illustrate this through literature, either realistically or exaggerated. Almost everything people surround themselves with is based on the unreal. Everything from the food we eat to the books we read had to have been thought of by someone and their imagination. The imagination empowers humans.^1 It allows people to speculate or to see into the future. It allows artists to create, inventors to invent, and even scientists and mathematicians to solve problems. J.R. Tolken wrote “Lord of the Rings” by sitting in his backyard and imagining everything coming to life.^2 He thought about all the “what if” possibilities. But this method of storytelling can be used in much more subtle and/or sophisticated ways than in science fiction or fantasy novels. Through such works as the short story Dreams and the novel “Headhunter” by Timothy Findley, the film “the Matrix”, and the short story the Telltale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe, one can see how a writer can use the concept of the imaginary invading reality to write their story.

  • Moving to a New Country!

    1092 Words  | 3 Pages

    It was a beautiful, sunny day in South Florida. I was six years old, playing by the pool with my new puppy. I loved swimming in the pool almost every day after school. I also enjoyed going out on our boat after school or crossing the street and going to the beach. My father came home one evening with some interesting news. Now, I do not remember exactly how I felt about the news at that time, but it seemed like I did not mind that much. He had announced that we were going to move back to my birth country, Belgium. I had been living in Florida for five years and it was basically all I had known so I did not know what to expect. I had to live with my mom at first, and then my sister would join us after she graduated high school and my father finished settling things. I remember most of my earlier childhood by watching some old videos of me playing by the pool and dancing in the living room. It seemed like life could not get any better. However, I was excited and impatient to experience a new lifestyle. I realized that I could start a whole new life, make new friends and learn a new language. Belgium was not as sunny as South Florida but it has much better food and family oriented activities. Geographic mobility can have many positive effects on younger children, such as learning new languages, being more outgoing, and more family oriented; therefore, parents should not be afraid to move around and experience new cultures.

  • Biblical Inspiration

    The purpose of this paper is to discuss the importance of theories of inspiration and the Bible as God’s-breathed word. Owing to one of the most specific, the illumination theory in the inspiration of doctrine is what created the content of Scripture. It indicates the divine activity bringing scripture to the real life (Erickson, 2001). Generally, illumination of inspiration shows us the role of God in the overall life process. Moreover, the idea of inspiration stresses on the place where everyone stands in adherence to the Holy Spirit. Nowadays, Biblical illumination has become one of the most disputable topics of the modern theological field (McDowell, 1999). The objective of this work is to explore the illumination theory’s development. Current field of study claims for research that is more investigational in the future (Denbski & Licona, 2012).

    A good teacher is one that motivates the students to always keep trying and do their best. However, an ethical and virtuous teacher is one who changes a student’s life forever and shapes their character into becoming a successful and respectful human being. Teachers have an important part in our lives and they impact us every day. Not only do they teach us something new each passing day, they also give us lessons that we will use in every decision we make in our lives. Luckily, I was able to have a teacher who pushed me beyond all my limits and always believed in me. That marvelous teacher was my fourth-grade teacher, Mrs. Alvarado.
