last summer,I went to Hawaii for a holiday with my friends.We flew across the pacific to the ting island from Beijing.During our time there, we ate delicious exotic food and drank numerous fruit juices.The Hawaiians are proud of their unique food,often 'spiced up' with slices of juicy pineapple and strings of delicious cheese.

It would be quite ridiculous if I was not to write down my experiences as I go through this trip. You do not see the tallest trees in the world everyday. Although, if I want to get even remotely close to seeing them every day, the least I can do is keep track of my adventures inside of a journal so I can read them later on in my life and remember the time I had on this trip. I went to Redwood National Park and I experienced a true, American national treasure

As I heard my alarm clock go off at two in the morning, feeling prepared mentally but not physically. My mind,at that point in time raced with thoughts and expectations, although my body felt like it wanted to die. Finally dragging myself out from under the soft covers, I pulled my gear to the bed of the truck and threw my bag up over the side of the truck's bed,-- hearing a giant thud from the heftiness of my pack. I felt mixed emotions coming from my body, my mind ready and my body said: “go back to bed hate you, I hate you, I hate you”. As soon as I plopped myself into the truck squished with three people in the back seat, after about five minutes of driving all three of us passed out fast asleep. The moment I woke, pulling into the parking lot of Mount Washington, New Hampshire I felt ready. When I stepped out of the car, I threw my hands in the air, the best feeling of stretching after a car ride. I look up to see this mountain completely covered with snow and only one round part completely treeless; that's where we hiked too. Strapping my fifty-pound pack on my back containing ski boots, skis, poles, winter gear, and food felt more tiring than it should have.

“I’m sorry Mommy, I promise I won’t do it again. Please forgive me.” this was all I could say. I had no excuse for my actions.

In this week’s narrative essay I will write about my experience as a child while visiting Sanibel Island, Florida. During the discovery process, I drew from my memory to create a list of topics relevant to the subject matter. My personal discovery process usually begins in the morning with coffee when I brainstorm the subject matter. I include my ideas in a word document, everything that comes to mind and naturally it’s out of logical order. Freewriting and some questioning are also utilized as I further consider both the subject matter and the audience who will eventually read my essay.

I am an very laid back and love nothing more than to have a good time

I have hunted monsters in the depths of Lake Erie. I have searched for fairies in the Redwood Forest. I have solved mysteries at the bottom of the ocean. No matter how different they may seem, all these adventures have one common thread. My brother.

The Santa Ana Wildlife refuge was a location in which we had to visit today in the morning. Santa Ana was established in 1943 for the protection of migratory birds. Thought it might be small for its’ size this refuge can be home to abundance of animals and bugs. The trails that we followed to today were the chachalacas trail and the willow trail. My hand on experience was ok. I think because I am taller than the average person I kept on getting hit with branches and kept on getting hit with a lot of spider webs. There were different animal on the bingo card today then the pervious location. These animals include the armadillo, turtle, and coyote. We also found another bird that was nesting on the ground, at first glance we thought it was a

The recent camping trip to the Allegheny national forest was a time well spent where I learned much about myself and others.This trip also enabled me to make memories with people who I am not familiar with. One of those memories happened when I cut my leg trying to move a log and, Hayley was scrambling around the campsite looking for the med kit so she could bandage my leg. This is one of my favorite memories because, my incident is a silly little thing that happens, that I always remember. Also, the reactions from the rest of the people were concerning for my well- being even though I stayed calm and said that I was fine. It is one of those little things make every moment so great. If cell phones were allowed then that probably would have happened because I would probably

Acres and acres of irreplaceable forests and wetland taken away for one purpose: more money. PolyMet wants to build a copper-nickel mine in northern Minnesota. They don’t want to just build this mine on a black field in northern Minnesota but on Chippewa National Forest. PolyMet does own the mining rights of this specific chunk of land, but USFS owns the land on top. I think this mine is a terrible idea because it will create both land disturbances and air and water pollution.

Out of nearly 7.5 Billion people around the world, I would say I have a very unique background. I would consider my background to be unique because I have been introduced to multiple different cultures, traditions, and ways of life which has diversified who I have become. For 12 years of my life I lived in Saint Thomas, United States Virgin Islands (STT) which is approximately 100 miles east of Puerto Rico. Living there has influenced me the most because of how many different cultures and ways of life I have been around growing up down there. Growing up I was exposed to the West Indie way of life which is being relaxed and loving life. Out of those many relaxed and loving life traditions in STT the two most influential traditions to me were

You can hear the crunching of the gravel under Nelson’s black combat boots as he walked towards the old, tall, rusty metal fence that are blocking the woods from the outside world. “Beep, beep!” he turned around and saw an old, black Jeep pull up on the loose gravel road, with the dirt temporarily staining the shiny black paint. When Peggie hopped out of her car, Nelson fell into relaxation, she is the only person in the world that knows where to find Nelson in a matter of minutes, but this time he had her stumped, her heart was racing when she witnessed him facing the deep, dark woods.

During the summer of 2015, my friend and I planned to go to a cabin camp with other people for 6 days on a tall mountain (for which I forget the name.) Our friend and I arrived at the camp 3 weeks since the school closed. when we arrived, the camp was stunning, It was at least 164 acres of land which half of it was a forest, there were 9 boys and 10 girls cabins, a kitchen, a dining hall, a gym with an upstairs game room (which included pool, foosball, air hockey and ping pong), there was a poo, a go kart track, a paintball arena,l and finally a field.

It was a calm, overcast day, and I found myself resting at the side of a large oak tree, admiring the beauty of the woods that surrounded me.

In the cold, dark and mysterious forest is where she lived. Vanessa is teenage whose summer is almost ending. She is an only child and her father is always somewhere out of the Country for work purposes. “Mom, when is dad coming home from France it has been like forever.” Her mother is a stay home mom who loves baking when Vanessa is at school or work. “He should be coming home in about a week or two.””She was a girl who liked adventure and exploring but she never got to go past the fence in her backyard which is mostly a forest. Today was a great day for exploring. She decided that it had been a long time since she has gone into the forest. But when she headed out to she forgot to get her adventure bag. She got the adventure bag from her dad on her tenth birthday. It contains a flashlight, water bottle, compass, a blanket, and two granola bars if she get lost or is hungry and thirsty. She decided to go on without it because her mother might ask questions and tell her to stay inside because it’s cold and almost time for dinner. When she reached the fence she found a narrow path which was hidden behind these two redwood trees. She took the path hoping to find something neat or interesting and indeed she did. In the distance she saw a small lake in the distance.
