wonders of saipan

0 comments
The cool beautiful sites of Saipan attract tourist to the island from different countries but they mostly attract Japanese, Korean and Russian people. People come to Saipan to see the nice warm weather and to take tours of the island to see the famous sites such as Bonzai Cliff, the Grotto, Suicide Cliff, Mount Tapochao and memorials and statues from World War II.
Mainly tourists come to Saipan for their honeymoons or to bring their children to a nice place. They usually come here when it is winter time in their country to get away from the cold and feel the warmth of the sun that is almost always shining.
I look around and see people walking along beach road, shopping at Duty Free, and eating at the street market having a wonderful time. I see foreign children dancing at the street market and having a great time. The smiles I see while looking around makes me proud to be living on an island where people come from their own country to have fun.
To all the people around the word, I advise to come to the beautiful island of Saipan. The local cultures are very interesting to learn about and people who have been to Saipan before had a good time learning about cultures much different than their own. I especially see Japanese people drinking the juice from the local coconuts, and eating the local food. They might not find it good, but at least they are happy to have tried something new and can go back to their country to tell others about the things they have learned in Saipan and to be proud and happy that they had come to such a beautiful place.
I have lived on Saipan my whole life, and I must admit sometimes I wish I could just get away. But deep inside I know that I belong here until I go off to college and when I am gone, I can tell others about the place I used to live in and how beautiful it is.

my favorite poem is.......

My favorite poem doesn't have a name but this is how it goes:
I believe in angels,The kind that heaven sends,I am surrounded by angels,But I call them friends.
By: Aizabel Parinas
I like this poem because it represents the feeling of having true friends, but for me, mostly family. My angels symoblize the people who watch over me all the time and care for me and will always back me up from behind. I love to have someone to depend on all the time like I would do for them. I think that having a true friend, which is my family, is the best feeling in the world. Know that there is and are people all around that care about me. Just like how angels are said to watch over people. I find this poem very meaningful. I can connect to it by thinking of my family and pictureing them in my mind as my angels watching over me.

My favorite book is “Twilght,” the first book in the series called the “Twilight Saga.” I like this book so much that I’ve already read it 3 times. The reason why I like this book is because it is about something that doesn’t exist in real life. I love to read fiction books about magic and things like that and this book is about vampires who have powers out of the ordinary. The book starts out with an ordinary girl going to live with her dad who lives in a town called Forks in Washington State. Her parents are divorced and her mom is re-married so she decided to spend some time with her dad in Forks. She thought that she wouldn’t like it there because she hadn’t been there for years. But little did she know, her fait awaited her there. She falls in love with a vampire. I like this because there are no such things as vampires and the stories we hear about vampires are that they live in caves and only come out at night and can transform themselves from bats into humans who just kill people and suck their blood and turn them into vampires too. But the vampires in this story are totally different from what here about in old stories. They act and look just like humans except for drinking blood. The second main character only drinks animal blood and the good part is that he falls in love with a human even though he knows he shouldn’t. The best part is that the girl wants to become a vampire too. And…..her lover vampire is really hot.
