In 2012, my dad’s entire side of the family made the decision to take a trip to Maui, one of the five islands of Hawaii. Maui is by far one of the most beautiful and exotic places I have ever traveled to. There are two things that I remember the most: snorkeling at our resort and attending a luau. Going to the luau was one of the coolest things I have ever been able to experience. The food was so good, especially the purple potatoes and pineapple. This was truly an amazing experience of Hawaiian culture. We also took a drive up Mt. Haleakala which is a mountainous volcano. We got up at 4:00 in the morning so we could be there to see the sunrise. We were high above the clouds. The view was breathtaking but so cold! Hawaii is definitely somewhere I would travel back

My week was long and a bumpy rollercoaster. I was sick towards the first half of the week which made my days drag. However, I remained energetic for my class because this week was Read Across America week. The school had a Dr. Seuss book theme each day. I dressed up and the kids dressed up. It was so sweet and we delved into Dr. Seuss. We discussed his stories messages, the rhymes, real words vs. made-up words, and connections to our lives. The only downside was that a handful of our students were sick this week. On Wednesday, our class started out at fourteen and by 12:45 we had eight students left. It made classroom management easier, but I missed the smiling faces of the absent students.

I remember when I first went to the beach for the first time, it was amazing. The good vibes for everyone, how it was so sunny, and the soft smooth breezy that would come from the ocean. Having such a huge, positive, impact with the different smells, taste, and many sounds.

Hawaii is a place that people dream of going to at least once in their lives. There are so many exciting and entertaining excursions to experience such as surfing, snorkeling, zip lining, and many more. When my mother decided we were going to Hawaii, she intricately planned every detail. She created a vacation outline and read it to my dad and I, “On Sunday I signed us up for surfing lessons on the beach, On Monday we are going to snorkel and explore the different kinds of coral reefs and fish, On Tuesday we are going ziplining in Kualoa’s Jurassic Valley Zipline”. The list continued until our last day of vacation.

Everything that we do requires words. Even when we think we create our memories out of words. One reason why we do not remember stuff when we are young is because we don’t have the words to put the information into to store it. Writing is very important because writing means everything, and if we didn 't have writing, we wouldn 't be able to spread ideas. The local and world news are in writing also so we need to be able to read the information. Also directions on how to use something or directions to go somewhere for transportation are also written in words. It is unimaginable how many roles writing plays in our lifestyles and we don’t even think about it.

When I was in 7th grade, the whole entire grade suggested that we should go on a camping trip. We had many places to choose from, but we all agreed on going to Yosemite. The reason we chose Yosemite is because we wanted people to stay away from their video games and electronics for a couple of days and actually enjoy what beautiful things God had made and what the outside world has to offer. It was an amazing trip and we did have many unforgettable memories. But one memory I had was on the second day of the trip, it was the day we started to do activities with our group leader. We hiked up a waterfall, played some games, and also took lots of pictures. It was a very tiring day and when we were finally done for the day, It was

As students begin school, they can begin collecting words in a notebook to create awareness that words are like treasures. Revision of words can transform a piece of competent writing into writing that is memorable and deeply moving. According to the author, the words writers choose reflect their thinking, beliefs, and feelings. If we use simple words, we will get to the point, but we won’t move the reader. When writing, we must be specific because we want our readers to feel, experience, hear, taste, and smell the same way we do it.

The summer adventure that consisted of two college students in a large city. It was an adventures that would allow friend that enjoy photographer to not only allow them to do what they love, but to also build the bond and explore the world together. This trip wasn’t something that was planned for a few months, but instead somehow happen over two weeks. In the beginning I felt that this was going to be another dream that would never come to reality, but it did. After stepping foot off the Delta flight at JFK, that is when I realize that we really did make this trip happen. Driving through the different burrows of New York really forced the gears in my head to start shifting as I would begin to think about what type of shot I was looking to take.

Over the summer I had a lot of fun, maybe the most I`ve ever had. I spend a large amount of my summer at my grandparent’s lake house. My grandparents lake house is huge, a mansion compared to my house. At their lake house they have a lot of fun stuff, my personal favorite are the jet skis. I didn’t get to ride them that much, but when I did it was a blast! My days at the lake house were the highlight of my summer, but I did a lot of other fun stuff too!

Our family had experienced the vacation of our lifetimes this summer. It was our first real vacation. Our excitement mounded over the weeks prior to leaving as we made lists of what to pack and shopped for what we needed. The anticipation was like a high I had not experienced except for graduating high school. What would it look like? Coming from a household of

When I was in eighth grade I went on my first trip out of the country to Nassau, Bahamas. Going on this trip was one of the most exciting and unforgettable times of my life. Not only was it a fun experience, it was also the first time I realized that I love traveling. While there I was lucky enough to visit many places, such as Blue Lagoon Island and the beautiful Atlantis Resort, and immerse myself in the Bahamian culture. My time in The Bahamas was not my only great memory from that trip. The journey to get to The Bahamas itself was also quite interesting.

Everyday writing is used as a great source to those in the future and present. While some may not feel the need to read everyday writing, reading these sources, in fact, provides us with the value of learning information through many different aspects. Accessible to all, reading everyday writing can create, grow, and something else in our lives.

When I was a young child I would love to hear my parents tell me that we were going on a trip. I would be full of excitement, because I knew that we would be going to a place that I had never seen before. My parents, my brother, and I would pack our luggage and venture out in our small gray minivan. Three of my most cherished memories in our minivan are when we went to Disney World, the beach, and the mountains.

There are certain memories that we have that we can remember like they happened yesterday. Many of those memories that have special meaning to me were of family vacations when I was young growing up with my brothers and sisters. Family memories are important to many of us because they take us back to a time or place that was special. One particular family vacation I remember vividly, and it’s a story I have shared with my kids on many occasions. Over the 40 or more years since that memorable vacation, I still smile and think how lucky I was growing up with a mother and father that did everything to give their kids an unforgettable memory.
