Essay on High School Senior Trip

On the ship we played ping pong. I played a lot throughout the cruise. My dad beat me at the beginning of the cruise, but I started to get better and beat my dad. The pool on the cruise ship was amazing because it was big and consisted of cold water. Another thing was the food. It was interesting and good. One of the foods I tried was scargo. It is snail. They had a basketball court as well. I had a lot of fun with all of these exciting experiences and activities.

Coming to this school made me change into a completely different person these last three years. My whole educational career I was always trying my hardest to be on the honor roll team and have the most perfect attendance. I never thought I would’ve ended up in the plight I’m at now as a graduating senior. There were many deterrents outside of the classroom that affected my performance in school, as it showed drastically in my grades as well as my attendance. In this essay I will be discussing those obstacles, who were involved, who helped me, and how I overcame them to finally get my high school diploma.

Could you ever imagine driving twenty-two hours in a suburban with eight people? Although it was incredibly cramped, and tortuous, I was going to my favorite place… Florida. We were going with our neighbors, who I grew up with, traveled with, and basically did everything with. Our moms had decided to do a last minute trip to Florida and planned everything out the night before. We always did vacations on spring break, but this vacation my mom told me by surprise, at seven A.M.

I remember my very first adventure. The reason it is an adventure is because it was the first time I went anywhere special without my parents. The destination of choice chosen by the school was Liberty Island all the students were ecstatic. The teachers had all the students on the ferry and I can recall the first time I saw lady liberty. The amazing statue standing

Unfortunately I see this conversation ending with Celeste and Jim both very upset and no solutions to the conflict being discussed. It seems that at the end of this scenario the conflict was beginning to spiral out of control, and communication was shutting down. It will end with Celeste and Jim blowing up at each other and not being willing to understand the others perspective about the situation. They will not talk for a while after this happens and Jim will hire Nikki as he intended to from the beginning. As a negative end to this conflict I see Jim and Celeste looking back over the conflict still trying to defend their position (retrospective goals).

I was on a rickety stained ship. I was not very excited,because I got sea sick. I was with my family on a trip to Bermuda,because we wanted to see the ocean. I was trying to think positive,but you

When I was 14 my brother convinced me to sign up for the Mcconnel foundation Yosemite trip. I had to do a lot of community service which consisted of picking up trash on the side of the road and teaching the kids at my local elementary school about the environment and global warming. I got accepted and it was definitely one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had. I’m outdoorsy and love hiking but, this was a whole different level of hiking. The first couple days were really hard for me because of the extent of the hikes and hiking dozens of switchbacks a day. The yosemite made me realize how beautiful life is and I became a lot more outdoorsy. It helped me figure out who I am. I soon started spending most of my time outdoors fishing and hunting. The yosemite is the most beautiful place I’ve ever been to and I’m extremely thankful that I had that experience.

In 2008, I learned some exciting news that I was going to go on a cruise. A cruise is a new experience for me and I was ready to go on it. We were going to St. Martin in the Bahamas, we would leave Kansas City and get on a boat at Cape Canaveral which was by Kennedy space center. Me, my grandparents, parents, aunt, uncle and my great grandparents were all going on the trip. This trip ended up being the funnest trip in my life.

They day was finally here! The day I would go on the greatest ship in the world. The Titanic. My mother and I were going to America to try and start a new life. My father died from cancer a year ago, so we wanted a new start. Even though we were third class, I still was really grateful we had this opportunity to go on the Titanic. There were 840 rooms in the ship and 2,240 passengers (“Encyclopedia-Titanica”). “Come on Mom! We can’t be late,” I exclaimed, more excited than ever.

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.

One of the things we did on that cruise was swim for almost the entire day since it open really early and closes really late. But the only that was bad about those swimming pool was that the put salt water in the pools instead of chlorine. So slightest drop of water that hit your eye burned really really bad. And the they also get super full because there is about 6000 people on that ship. so we didn't go swimming all the time because there was a max capacity. And on one of the days we saw two dolphins swimming and everybody was going crazy every time they would jump out of the water

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.

My adventures did not start on the cruise. The first new experience I faced was riding in an airplane. This was terrifying to me; so much so, I almost did not want to go on the cruise. But I decided to step out of my comfort zone and gave the plane a chance. While on the plane I received my wings because I was a first time flyer. Also the entire ride was filled with laughter and joke between my family. Had I not been adventurous I would not have been able to enjoy the plane ride. I would not have never received my wings. And my step sisters and I would not have had any new inside jokes. If I was not brave enough to face the plane, I would never know that I love flying.

The summer of my junior year was a busy but memorable one. I met new people and made memories I will not forget. I stayed busy by going to Sioux Falls for a friend’s surgery, working, and playing sports.

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.
