Things to Do Before You Die
things to do before you die~Austin Hammond~9/17/12
Things to do before I die Grammar and style

There is a extensive number of things I always wished I could do, before I die. I've created a list of 10 things. some of these plausible, and some radical. The things I wish I could do at some point are probably going to happen one day, So there’s no need for me to fret. All i need is a tremendous sum of money to cover the expenses.

1. White water rafting. I know that lots of people have already done this, even at an early age, But I’ve always wanted too. And I don’t usually go to camps for the summer so I wouldn’t have had the chance. Its always seems so fun and the initial thrill of dropping of a small waterfall is probably amazing. So I would say that I have about a 90% chance of me ever doing that, which is pretty good, if you ask me.

2.Base Jumping. Base-jumping is pretty self-explanatory. Basically you are on a highly elevated surface such as a bridge of building, tower etc., and you just jump off of it. You are attached to a cord and when you jump you are set swinging until you slow enough to be pulled back up. It is actually pretty simple so I could imagine myself doing it at some point. It’s probably in the 85% chance of me doing it because it is common.

3.Cruise ship. I have been on a cruse ship but it never left dock. I’ve always wanted to go on a cruise and seeing the inside of one only increases my desire to do so. My aunt actually works as a cruise director so the chances of me going on one are fairly high. I'd say about 95% chance that I'll do it one day. They are pretty common and fairly inexpensive for the duration and enjoyment it provides.

4. Germany. As a kid I always saw things on the discovery/History channel about Germany and it always interested me. I’ve been hoping for years that someday I’d have the privileged to go to Germany, and maybe learn German, because it was always seemed so cool sounding. The likely hood of me going

    I didn’t really do much over the summer. We went to Indiana beach, and I am not too fond of roller coasters, or any ride for that matter, except for at water parks. Last year in 7th grade we went to Washington D.C and saw the washington monument, lincoln memorial, we went inside the Capitol building, The Changing of the Guard at Arlington cemetery, saw The White House. That didn’t really interest me, I don’t even have any souvenirs! Even earlier in the year, we went to Buffalo, New York. We saw a football game (the team we were rooting for lost,(TO THE JETS!) and we got to see Niagara Falls.…

    The same goes for me -- I would like to visit England, above other countries. I’m fond of the English manner and style -- the whole air of understated elegance. Nowadays, in America, it’s just the opposite -- everything is loud, in your face, and overstated.…

    Hawaii was the state that I was given. It was interesting to come upon on because it’s surrounded by water, it has so many volcanoes, and it is an exotic island. I have never been there myself, but I wish to go there. It is a special place because there are so many that I’ve never seen and it is a wonderful place for retirement. Hawaii is a place where everyone can have fun relax and enjoy having fun. This is why Hawaii is known as paradise to many people.…

    As a small child I was a big fan of Disney World and Disneyland. I spent several summers at each amusement park with my godparents. My parents surprised me with a special trip. We drove 6 hours to see the Neuschwanstein castle. It was very early in the morning and extremely cold. The castle is built on the top of a mountain. There were two options for getting up the mountain to see the castle, walking or by horse drawn carriage. We took the carriage in hopes that it would be slightly…

    The country that I choose is Iceland. Iceland is very unique and interesting not only because of its clean air and amazing scenery but also its natural beauty and landscapes. Nature is a big force of Iceland but the volcano’s, waterfalls, and glaciers seem to attract most tourist. There landforms are probably the most unique. The Northern Lights is also something that people find very interesting because how it is created and the view you can see. It is something that everyone should see at some point in their life. The sources that I choose to use to research the Physical Geography, Economics, History, Cultural, and Political features of Iceland were mainly books including; Ring of Season: Iceland , It’s Culture and History; Island Guide to Iceland; and Landmark Visitor Guide: Iceland. The main site that was used from the internet was the CIA World Factbook. The geographical features of Iceland in this paper range from physical/environmental, historical, culture/demographic, political, and economics that help create this country.…
