Personal Narrative: My Trip To South Bend Cubs

This summer was pretty interesting and a tad bit boring. I sort of learned a little bit more about myself and how I could deal with things. Some things got a little rough along the way but that’s life for you. Everyone hits that rough patch in life at one time and point.

I have a ton of summer memories. To be honest it is really hard to keep track of them. Most of my memories will probably mention golf, Grandpa’s story time, and spending a lot of time in Clear Lake, Iowa.

Last week I went to Chicago to help out my sister, who was having surgery. I felt as if I’d stepped into an alternate universe. The hospital (Northwestern Memorial, one of the finest in the country) reminded me of a gleaming convention hotel, with vast meeting spaces and sumptuous food courts. My sister had a spacious private room with a fold-out couch in case I wanted to stay over. There were plenty of empty beds. Attentive nurses were at her beck and call. The day she was scheduled to go home, her surgeon dropped by and encouraged her to stay an extra night because she looked a little tired. My jaw dropped. We Canadians can only dream of such luxuries.

This summer had to be the best summer I’ve had is two years. We had waited all year for this moment to come, summer. It was hot and humid, the pool waiting for someone to swim in. Just a few days and we’d finally see our favorite cousins. Waiting for my family at the airport, going to Wildwood boardwalk, and surfing at the beach were just some of the most exciting and rousing things that happened this summer.

There is one thing I would like to point out on a rest stop we went to. There was another RV there who was on their trip to the Midwest (I think they said . We were talking with them and Charlye who has a kind heart asked them if they would like our left over food. We explained we were headed home to Sacramento and would love for them to take the cans with them. They were more than happy to take what ever we could give them. Tommy and I were boxing up the food for them and discovered some sausages (3 packages) in the freezer that never was used and a quart of unopened ice cream. We decided to give it to them. We asked if we could pray for them for a safe trip (they were happy to know we are Christians). They left with smiles on their faces.

What did I do this summer? Well about 75% of it was spent in summer school so I didn’t really do much. I woke up about 7:00 every morning and started my day. Besides going to summer school I babysat my sister’s kids almost every day.

One of my favorite things to end the school year is to have a summer vacation. Every summer, I attend summer school to get credits to get ahead so I can meet the requirements to graduate. I also went to a bible camp that is at Turkey Hill Ranch. I enjoyed it when I got to go to Six Flags for the first time.

Fall, my favorite season of year, well it’s. Soccer season is started and I will be looking forward to play it for a private club. I like everything about fall except waking up early for school. There are going to be so much fun night watching soccer with friends. Well, I do miss summers too. Hanging out with my friends all day, beaches, road trips, and other good times. This summer I went to Virginia every other weekend in 4 weeks, which is 4 times going and coming back. I went other states in between too but I have family in Virginia so it feels like a second home to me there. Well the highlight of my summer vacation was a road trip with my friends to New York, we went to Rhode Island for a day. I sure miss that day, but nothing last forever,

During this summer I did many different things. I going to tell you about 3 major things I did this summer. I don’t know why but I actually wanted to start school thing year.

One amusing thing I have done this summer was traveling to Chicago. It took several hours to reach Chicago. I traveled with my mom and dad plus my two brothers and I. First we went to a museum. Then we went to the Shell Aquarium. They took a couple of hours each. We ate McDonalds there for dinner. I had a 10 piece chicken nugget with fries and a coke. After that my family traveled home. Over all it was a very exciting trip.

Summer was a very, very busy time this year. It is definitely my favorite season of the year but there was not a whole lot of time for relaxation. I did many things from playing sports to working.

The summer can be a time to do many fun things. Numerous people go to the beach or Disney World; some may even visit a big city such as Chicago. Several people tour colleges during the summer; this can be a productive summer activity that is just as exciting as various other things. Other people may enjoy gardening; maintaining a garden can be quite relaxing. This summer, I did a couple of rather fun things such as: visiting Chicago, touring colleges, and planting a garden.

My memory-filled summer consisted of many things that kept me busy, but having fun. I attended 4-H Camp Ohio for my third year as a counselor and my ninth year overall this summer. Band camp filled the last four weeks of my summer with hot days and sore arms; however, going out to grab a bite to eat with my friends after every six-to-nine rehearsal made the night more bearable. Trips to Michigan to see family and camping trips to Butler to go kayaking also made my summer remarkable.

During Spring Break,I went to go see "Beauty and the Beast". Beauty and the Beast was such a good movie I think it brought it to life. I also went to basketball camp,it was only for 2 or 3 days. it was so fun i am still not the best at it (or good) but it was fun to try. When, I was there we shared scary camp stories. I think my was the best camp story ever! Me and my family went to big park me and my sister and dad went to the pool on the bump boats.

This summer was a blast I did not go anywhere far but still had lot’s of fun. I did a lot of things around my house and in town. This summer was by far the best summer in my book. Know let me tell you a couple quick stories on my action packed summer.
