Trip to Tuscan, Arizona Have you ever been to some place that was more of where you wanted to be but also didn’t want to be at some point of time? Try taking a vacation somewhere you have never been.

I also got to ride on the tall mountain which at that point was a cool thing. There were some things that made me unhappy and some that made me dramatically excited.

Once we were settled in, we went out for breakfast and we to the Gohaman Beach where we seen lots of unusual things. We made our own fun because the people that were there didn’t know us and were not friendly at all.

    The sciences have managed to encapsulate my intrigue throughout my life, an intrigue that has pushed me to seize many opportunities that enrich my knowledge towards the sciences. UW-Eau Claire offered a Domestic Intercultural Experience to Yosemite National Park in May of 2016 that I had the blessing of attending. A squadron of Eau Claire college students accompanied by two professors of the University flew to California for nine days to explore the natural geologic beauty of Yosemite National Park. We packed our experience with multiple hikes around the park as well as a few presentations and talks that discussed the history of the park and how it was formed. Being surrounded by massive walls of plutonic rock made me realize the awesome power of nature that comes in the form of glaciers. Mono Lake was also a part of the agenda on the immersion experience. At the lake, we learned that its salinity is caused by the lack of an outflow for the lake and we discovered the volcanic history of the Mono basin.…

    Earlier that evening, I had wandered around the hotel, feeling lonely and bored. My roommate and I had planned on visiting the theme parks, but his father, a chaperon, had taken him out for a surprise birthday dinner. So I was left alone to wander. Feeling in the mood to play some video games, I headed out to the arcade with a crisp ten dollar bill. Fifteen minutes later, I walked out, penniless, after quickly finding out that I should never get behind the wheel of a race car. I don't believe I even managed to complete one lap, let alone finish. On the way back, I ran into some friends of mine, who had returned from dinner to get their tickets for the theme parks. Seeing how lonely I was, they invited me to go with them. I agreed, happy to do anything.…
