    We want to escape from our mundane routines, fly somewhere tropical with plenty of booze, and forget about Sharon in the opposite cubicle who never stops snapping her gum. Resort hotel or cruise ship, it doesn 't matter. Just let me enjoy my measly two weeks of vacation while I can. We will then reluctantly return with embarrassing raccoon eyes from falling asleep on the beach with our sunglasses on and get back to work. When Sharon, between gum snaps, peers over the cubicle wall and asks how our

    satisfactorily. By having to walk through many trees and different types of flora I learnt to not be squeamish when faced with fauna and learn to appreciate and observe nature instead of avoiding it. I learnt the importance of a positive mindset during the trip and being not afraid to try new things such as the mountain devil nectar, to throw yourself into the deep waters such as climbing up the steep moss covered uphills and to take calculated risks when trying new routes. The unpolluted and fairly untouched

    to overcome but never had the guts to do it. So when my best friend Max asked me to go on a hiking trip with another friend and his girlfriend for a surprise proposal, there was no way I couldn’t be there for my friend. I would overcome my fear of mountains. As apprehensive I was about going on this hike, I was secretly thrilled. The day before I made sure I got the things I needed for the trip including, hiking boots, food,

    “So guess where we’re going over spring break?” “Where?” I asked my mom. “We’re going to St. Louis to visit a Wax Museum.” Her voice was enthusiastic, and she was too hyper to go on the trip. When she informed me about this outing I was not excited. I loathe leaving Kansas City. There’s nothing to do. You’re perched on your butt in the car for hours on end, and there’s nothing to look at but farmland and the occasional cow. Over time, the journey begins to get boring; you’re exhausted for a considerable

    Some of my fondest childhood memories are of camping trips my parents would take me on starting at a very young age. These memories consist of walking a dark forest trail in the middle of the night, black bags hanging from the hands of all the young children with hopes of catching the mysterious snipe that had been roaming the woods, gathering around warm fires on cool nights with people you barely know and hearing out their past adventures, hoping to one day to take their place with adventurous

    This past summer I was able to go on a mission trip and it changed me forever. I went on this mission trip with my youth group because we like to take one mission trip every year for the purpose of helping people for one week who are less fortunate than us. We went with the mission group CMT, Carolina Mission Team, which sends groups of adults and youth to locations which are in need. This year we went to the city of St. Louis, Missouri. Most of us worked at a site called the CAC, Christian Activities

    deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better” was an outlook I found within my research for this trip (Einstein). Family trips are always an interesting experience and sometimes hard to understand. Between the arguing and stress of packing, my family finds a way to get on the road quite often. However, the next trip planned arose a new level of anxiety. Until this trip, I have never traveled to a place far from society and slept within the pure darkness of the night. The adrenaline

    Reflect over Belize My trip to Belize has taught me how to be grateful for what I have. I appreciate the life that I am living now. America offers their citizens so many opportunities and their basic needs for their daily living. If you do not have the simple needs to survive in America, public aid is offer to help meet what a mother or father cannot meet for their child. In America we have water planets that our water go through for treatment to make sure it is safe for us to drink. In Belize, we
