Desert Adventure
Hi, I’m Nicky and I also the one who love discovery the nature ! For that reason , I had had a remembrance that I will never forget. Last holiday, I decided to discover the Simpson desert. It’s famous with its red sand, it look like a fire when the sun enlighten the desert and its advertising on Discovery channel. That’s why I want to visit it.
Day 1 : I went into the Simpson desert by the car which was rent from the native people. No longer after I started the journey, my car’ tire was explored because the car was run over the sharp tree- trunk. It was took me quite long to change another tire. Then 4 hours later, It was happened again ! the second tire also explored. At that time, I have no more tire to change, my problem started from here ! I was trying my best to move the car slowly with the 3 tires left. Obviously, the left 3 tire gradually explored. Then, I was keep driving a car very slow, unfortunately, the car’ engine started to give off smoke because the engine was worked to hard. Finally the car was burning and after 2 hours it left the bodywork of the car with cinders. From that landmark, I just had left the backpack with some sandwich and 2 bottles of water but the map and compass was burned down with the ill-fated car. So I had to go on with the journey or more exactly is I have to find the way out of the Simpson desert. Then I was kept walking but totally get lost, I was just walking around. The weather was decreased gradually and I felt more tired, my legs were very painful. The sun set and the night came with the dry and cold wind, some of the sand-sliding skink, mouse like marsupial were came out the hatch to look for food. I was too tired than I slept unheeded.
Day2: The scorching hot of the sunshine woke me up. At that time, my phone had no signal so I decided to find a high place to receive the signal, then I kept go on the journey. My food and drink also dwindle away to nothing. Finally I found the observatory, I climbed up to the top of its. Unfortunately, my phone also could not receive the signal ! My last hope was also gone, I was very disappointed. Suddenly, I saw a helicopter flew overhead. My hope was light up again but unexpectedly disappear. I scream at the helicopter in hopeless , did anything to notice it but it just flew away. I did not give up easily, I was trying to follow the way of the helicopter went through. So I just walked until the night when I could not walked anymore and fell down then I laid unconscious until the next morning.
Day3: The thirsty woke me up in the next morning , I felt totally exhausted and I did not think I could overcome. Suddenly, I thought about my family and my children, they are my future. So I stood up and tried my best to walk but I could not walk without water so I have to find the cactus with the hope to get some water. Luckily, the first cactus that I cut down had much water. Then I went on the rest journey . Until the sun was going set, I found out the path and I started to walk along the path but my health did not allow me to walk anymore. I was fell to the ground in a faint. Providential, the next day I woke up in the local hospital. I was saved by a local farmer. I was very thankful to that farmer !
After all the things that I had gone through, I feel my life is meaningful and respect all the time that I have with my family and my children! The task in my discovery is never give up something easily.

    The Sandlot

    An adolescent’s peers can be the most influential social relationship in their life. Strong peer relationships help achieve two of an adolescents most critical tasks: finding independence from their parents and developing their own personal identities. Therefore, peer relationships are a crucial part of development. The movie “The Sandlot” accurately portrays the role of peers in adolescence by the main character, Scotty, who is transformed by those he hangs-out with. For example, Scotty had never chewed tobacco or even knew what it was until it was introduced to him by his peers. The influence of his peers and the absence of knowledge from his parents caused him to fall to peer pressure and chew tobacco. Scotty’s group of friends would be considered a clique because they excluded others from joining unless approved by the entire group. Also, there was a specific leader of the group of friends in “The Sandlot” named Benjamin Rodriguez, this is another defining feature of a clique. Finally, because the group of friends only hung out with each other and did not associate with other groups, this marked them as being a clique. It is important that young people associate with the right people because studies show that the people you hangout with will be the same characteristics that you adapt. Cliques are a part of growing up and is typically seen among middle and high school aged students, the immaturity of being exclusive and non-inclusive will dissipate throughout life, in most cases. It is important to choose friends…

    The “American West” is not what many people think of when they hear those words. People think of it as cowboys and Indians fighting on the Great Plains and in the canyons or the travel across rugged terrain traveling as fast as they could for the gold rush. In all honesty the west started as soon as the Americas began to be colonized and many historians say it begins at the Proclamation Line of 1763. They had many struggles with the Native Americans, the French trying to take their land by way of war, and Great Britain, the motherland, taxing them harshly for war debt but the American colonists eventually made their way to what is today commonly called the West.…

After finding a broken satellite dish, I figured out that the houses had to be somewhere under the sand. I dogged down beside it and it wasn’t too long until I found the top of the roof. I managed to break one of the windows and climb down into the house. Luckily, I found a lot of water bottles and some food that still looked kind of edible.…

The area was spectacular, the cabin quaint, the water blissfully inviting, everything was just perfect, we found our own little utopia. Many days we would hike down to the lake enjoying picnics atop the gently sun warmed boulders as the soft breeze caressed our faces. It was sensationally relaxing, I had but a care in the world, until we came across that magnificent 43 foot waterfall.…
