Part II: My Street

Another View of My House

Moving on to my street, here are some details about the street I grew up on:

My home address and zip code is 146 Polihale Place, 96825. The longitude and latitude of my house are: N 21˚ 16' 29.6" W 157˚ 42' 17.4".

My House and Street

The neighborhood I live in is Portlock, and it is unique because it is like on the Southeastern tip of Oahu. My street is pretty quiet because it is "tucked away" and on a hill—if you try to go past on the one road in my neighborhood, you'll end up in a dead end. A few of the houses (including mine) have gates, and about half (or so) have swimming pools (again, including mine). Sometimes, there's an ice cream van that goes around our street for a while, which is pretty cool!

There used to be lots of kids to play with when I was little, but they moved and I'm not sure if any new kids have moved in. I actually don't know my neighbors too well; partly because most of them are older and don't really communicate with us. 

I guess it was better when I was younger because I was a lot more outgoing and played with my neighbors pretty much every weekend. But a lot has changed, and I didn't really keep my interest in playing with neighbors by the time of adolescence.
