Sunshine State A five day vacation in the Sunshine state that would create some of my best and most interesting memories. The 5 days of complaining about how it was hot outside, turing into a lobster, and hanging out with my cousin. It was an agreement with my cousins parent that she would live in south Dakota and fly to florida every other summer. The summers my cousin wouldn't fly down my uncle would come and visit in south Dakota. The night before we left for florida my cousin came and stayed at my house. We all packed excited for the adventures were about to have in the coming days. We got up early and left for the airport. The empty lines made us get through air port security in no time at all. It was time to just wait a good hour for a the air plane to take us to florida. When the plane arrived the fights were to begin on who gets the window seat and who didn’t. It was a strait flight to florida so in not time we arrived and were ready to have fun. Walking out of the air plane I immediately noticed the difference in the climate. It was so much more warmer than anywhere I had ever been. We pulled our luggage behind us and we walked up

We rented a car that day and drove three hours early in the morning to go to orlando. The plan was to go to universal studios. After we finally got there and paid to get in walking in felt amazing. It was a long walk just to get to all the entertainment. You could walk in circles around the whole place and be totally lose but still having fun. My favorite part of that day was the harry potter ride. They strapped you in to a seat with your feet dangling. Zooming through the ride as Harry Potter talked to you. The motion sickness started to come on in the middle of the ride but i didn't care. Then when we were face to face with a dragon, the riders got a blast of steam. The ride home everyone

    Going to Southern California, no one would think of packing an umbrella. Why would they? California is in the middle of a drought. When someone thinks of California, they think of baby blue skies and palm trees along the streets. But, of course, the weekend my family decided to visit Disneyland, Universal Studios, and SeaWorld is the weekend Southern California experienced what the local news called a “tropical depression.”…

    On the plane, I found our seats and sat down and buckled our seat belts. I had never been on a plane before. When I realized that in a few moment we were going to be on the air, I was nervous. But I had to look calm, for my daughter, and for everyone else. The pilot introduced himself and said that the flight from Santo Domingo to New York was going to take 4 hours.…

    One day after school when I was eight, my parents conveyed to our family that we were moving due to my father’s job. I found this bizarre since we had just moved to our massive house in Fort Wayne, IN about two years earlier. I questioned where we were moving to, and my mother told us we were moving to Texas. This time we were moving across several states rather than just a few towns away. Up to that point in lives, we had lived in Indiana, so moving to Texas seemed so far away and across the country.…

    I woke up tired on a beautiful, sunny, Tuesday morning. It was the day I had to fly to San Francisco for my job on a cruise ship. I had been in between cruises, so I had taken the chance to come see my parents in Newark, New Jersey. Later I realized that it could have cost me dearly. I changed into my pressed, white, long sleeved shirt with khaki pants and my sailors hat that I had to wear for my job as a deckhand. I arrive at Newark Liberty International Airport a hour before my flight, where I hug my parents goodbye. I walk in and go through security easily and go to my gate and wait for thirty minutes until we would be able to board.…

    The sound of the ocean is a form of relaxation but for me, I like to call it home. Ventura is a small county located in the southern part of the California and for the past twenty-two years it has been my sanctuary. The other two years of my life I spent in a smaller town called Irapuato, Guanajuato, Mexico. This was my birthplace and home to my parents until they made the decision of migrating directly to Ventura County. Within Irapuato City, there are small ranchos or ranches, located on the outskirts of town and at our rancho, we would raise pigs, goats, cows and, sheep. Surrounding our rancho there are acres of land, where we plant fruits and vegetables to consume and sell to our little community. Life in Mexico is much more rural than…

    I have lived all my life in sunny Florida. I have always been a little different. While most of my friends were playing basketball or baseball I was tinkering with electronics and repairing or improving any item that came my way. I learned a lot from my older brother, who taught me everything I know about computers and technology. When I was a sophomore in high school, my brother and I worked together to build my own gaming computer. I have had a passion to learn as much as I can, so that I can be the best that I can possibly be. I was bullied as a child for being different, but I knew that if I pushed on, I could achieve my…

    It was a surprisingly warm night during the summer. Everyone in the house was sound asleep in their rooms except for me. I was watching a show on the laptop in my room when out of nowhere I hear a bone chilling scream from the neighbor’s house next door. Before I knew it I was out of bed putting on my shoes to see what was happening. When I opened the front door I saw a bunch of other neighbors turning on porch lights to see what was going on too. What I saw next I could never un-see, it was the sweet old man that lived next door crouching over his blood stained wife. The problem with this image though is what he didn’t do. He wasn’t crying over her body in sorrow, nor was he standing in shock, instead his face was covered in blood and…

    Like it was yesterday I remember my first vacation on a cruise. My Dad and I went on a three- day long cruise to The Bahamas. I had never been on a cruise, so it was a new experience for me. We needed to be in Tampa for our departure, so we drove the two hours from Orlando, Florida to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. My Dad and I used this time to talk, make plans for the trip and think about our upcoming adventures on the cruise.…

    What’s great about Universal Studios is that they give you so many options and of different attraction that everyone can do. If you do not like big roller coasters they have many 3D stimulation rides, if you’re a thrill chaser they have big rollers coaster, and if you like something in between they have that too. My favorite ride at the park is the Hulk; I love how fast the ride goes because I am a bit of a thrill chaser. Though the Harry Potter Stimulation/Coaster is a great ride to go on with your family because it’s fun, and friendly to people of all ages. I love that when we would leave a ride how excited my family and I were, it really brought us close…
