my past and future report

My past and future

There are many nice places in the world that I would like to live in. Australia is nice and Canada is always beautiful, a lot of places in Europe are great too. But no place can beat the United States of America. The land of the free and the home of the brave. I like exactly the way it is here. I have rights and freedoms and a great land at the top of its game. As being in Maryland is nice and I’ll always love my home but I would not mind moving to California. As there is no reason to really leave Maryland, nothing wrong with it at all I would just like to explore. Fly the nest, explore the world and find what it has to offer. California is a very nice place with good people, good sites to see, and tasty food. I vacationed there about 2 years ago and I had one of the best times of my life. Every night we went to a restaurant and I over ate every time because the food was so good. San Diego is also the 10^th cleanest city in America. A chart that I found online is divided into the following categories: air quality, water condition, toxics, hazardous wastes, sanitation, and then total. The numbers are ranked out of 50. The air quality is only 13, but water can make up for it with 50, toxics are a whopping 46, hazardous wastes, a great high 42, sanitation-14 and totaled up, about its average is 32.57. San Diego was rated the fifth-best place to live in the United States in 2006 by Money magazine. According to Forbes magazine, San Diego is the fifth-wealthiest city in the United States. If San Diego was not an option I would then have to pick San Francisco. San Francisco is the 5^th cleanest city in the United States. Air quality at 47 out of 50, water at 50, toxics at 34, hazardous wastes at a not so great 16, or the sanitation at 12. Overall its totaled up average is about 36.57 and just overall very clean. Both cities are also pretty safe crime rate wise and people obeying any other laws. They are both in California which I think is one of America’s best states. Just great places with nice weather. Speaking of weather, the one downside to living in either of these places is no snow. As some people do not like the snow which would be on upside for them to be living in southern states. I’m used to the snow in a wide range of temperatures in Maryland and I like the snow fun to play in and get off school. There are sacrifices and consequences to everything, and is a sacrifice I am willing to take for all the positives. 

  PART 2:          As for my past I’m 50% Polish on my dad’s side. As for my mom’s side we are not sure. My mom’s dad was French and English. My mom’s mom left when my mom was young and she has barely talked to her since then. My dad is 100% polish because it just so happened that both of my dad’s parents were Polish. My great-grandfather the father of my grandfather on my dad’s side was names Thomas Paszkiewicz. Thomas was married to Frances Barzyk. Thomas’s original copy of his certification of citizenship says he came over the 9^th of November, 1936. My great-grandmother or the mother of my grandmother on my dad’s side was named Maryanna Dzierwinsky. Maryanna was married to Andreas Dzierwinsky. Maryanna’s certification of citizenship says she came into America on the 20^th of august, 1938. Both Thomas and Maryanna came into the district of Maryland. Now on my mom’s side. Like I have said before her dad (my grandfather) was French and English. My mom’s dad was named Rufus Jarboe who was married to Shirley Shifflett. Since my Shirley left my mom and grandfather, we do not know much on her side. My great-grandfather John Oscar Jarboe was married to Mildred Saumenig. I could go on and on great on top of great-great. The very first Jarboe was LT. COL. John Jarboe born in Dijon France in 1619. I do not know when he came to America but he was stationed in St. Mary’s county. He entered Maryland from Virginia in 1646. He had a son named john and every child born from a father named john was named john as well until my great-grandfather broke the chain and named his son Rufus. My grandfather who I never meet but I know he was a great man. Both of my parents were born in MD as well as my grandparents. That is my report on my past and future.
