Beach Trip Essay

It all started on the 14th of August 2017. My teacher made my peers and me write an essay. The topic was where you would want to travel. I said to myself I want to go to Texas. The essay we had to do inspired me to go to Texas. I then decided I would like to hire a guy to tour me and my friends around.

was kind of like mango color in the sky. I was just so joyed. My brother and I both pleaded for our parents to let us see the ocean that night. They agreed and we walked down there. We were only a few blocks from the ocean. Our family made it to the beach and the feeling that the sand gave my little toes was outstanding. I could have stayed there forever without ever going to the ocean. After I had my few moments of pure joy in the sand, I saw my brother playing in the ocean without me. I took…

everyday life can be forgotten. If certain steps and guidelines are followed, planning a vacation can be as fun as going on one. When planning a vacation the first step is deciding where to go.

The morning was crazy almost being late to school and missed the bus for the 8th grade overnight trip.The bus was late by 15 minutes and it felt like an eternity. I was rushing like crazy because the bus came late and I had to wake up super early because i had to get to school at 8:00am. The bus ride to Indian Head Camp took like 2 hours. The bus ride wasn’t bad because I sat with my best friends and we ate snacks that we brought the day before. When we got to the camp it was bigger than we…

Back then, I thought that the state of Kansas was just flat and boring with nothing but farms and bipolar weather. This trip kind of let everyone escape from reality. No jobs, no school, and no bills to pay. It seemed as if everyone was living their own fantasy. Off the court my family and I had a blast. Even my little brother and sisters were enjoying themselves even though…

us turn in our phones on the bus ride up and did not give them back until about an hour into our trip home. This renunciation of my phone placed me in a form of isolation that was reminiscent to the common theme of solitude that author Antoine de Saint-Exupéry experienced and discussed in his memoir, Wind, Sand and Stars. I had never gone without my phone for an extended period of time before this trip so I found my experience…

The Trip of a Lifetime Ever since I was little, I loved the idea of going all over the world. My family never had the money to travel anywhere exciting, but the summer of 2016 was different. My uncle Terry lives in Spokane, which is in Washington. My mom decided it was time to go on vacation and visit, so we hopped on a train and went to visit him. My mom, my uncle Cory, my four cousins and I all went together, so they could also see Terry. In my opinion, the most exciting part was the train…

Reflective Essay This past summer -- 2016 – was beautiful, amazing, fantastic, and I completely loved every second of it. I say this because I did a lot of things in this long vacation like, buy shoes and wallets. Speaking of shoes, I wore yellow Adidas originals when I rode the airplane to do a parachuting activity. Meaning I jumped off a plane, which was really scary. We didn’t even plan to go parachuting, it just happened so suddenly. I hadn’t wanted to go, but I am glad that I did it…

Carry On opens with a quote by Henri Nouwen, “Each step is like a candle burning in the night. It does not take the darkness away, but it guides us through the darkness. When we look back after many small steps of love, we will discover that we have made a long and beautiful journey.” For three weeks this summer, I lived in the woods of New Hampshire as a Counselor In Training at Camp Carefree. Camp Carefree is for children with type one diabetes (T1D), and I myself had attended as a camper.…
