I have lived in West Virginia and North Carolina. I have vacationed in South Carolina and Florida. I have  done VBS in South Dakota with the Lakota Sioux tribes. In West Virginia and South Dakota there was great views but many people live in poverty and are on drugs. The Lakota Sioux children are as happy go lucky as they can be. As for South Carolina and Florida the beaches are beautiful. There is no other places I'd rather live than North Carolina to me we have everything, mountains and beaches. I also love the people and the friendliness of everyone.

As an American I cherish the right to vote. Although I have not yet had this privilege I find it very important. Especially as a women because previous to 1920 that was not so. The ratification of the Constitution with the 19th amendment give women the right to vote. Voting is a freedom in America that I hold dear. We the people have a say in who governs over us this is a right that many of countries do not have.
