One rainy day two girls named Lisa and Erin were driving to Colorado because they rented a cabin for the weekend. When they got to Colorado they stopped at the gas station for so gas. Lisa asked the cashier if they were going in the right direction to the cabin? The cashier said that they were going the right way but would take a will to get there. They spent three hours driving and then they see a sign that says Summer Lake Forest on it. Erin checked her phone to see if they where in the right spot and it said they were.…

Everything for us are unfamiliar, we should to fit into this new circumstance.…
The first time I went to California was insane.The plane ride,the weather, and the beach was the best. So on to the story. One day my parents decided we would visit our frends in California.

Moving is hard, especially when you go from North Carolina to California. My mom said i’ll be alright so did my brother but now I don't know. I heard great things about Pescadero, California like how few tourist are there, the open beaches and hiking spot. But isn’t that what all apartments say to get you to pack and come running to “The Golden State”. All I can think about is turning back and running to Mama’s arm and crying on my annoying brother Luther’s shoulder.…
I am sure it happened as easily as this: We were sitting around the garage shooting the bull during a cold winter snap. Thoughts turned to motorcycle rides and things spring and summer. For once, it wasn’t me. Mrs. K was the one to mention going to California. We hadn’t taken a trip the summer before, and she said, “We ought to ride to California and take the PCH along the coast.” Probably, no one jumped up and started packing, but several certainly starting thinking. One mention leads to another mention which leads to final plans. For me, it was a dream I have had since I watched Then Came Bronson and spent my time reading On the Road. For all of us, we researched the trip and found places and things…
Going to Southern California, no one would think of packing an umbrella. Why would they? California is in the middle of a drought. When someone thinks of California, they think of baby blue skies and palm trees along the streets. But, of course, the weekend my family decided to visit Disneyland, Universal Studios, and SeaWorld is the weekend Southern California experienced what the local news called a “tropical depression.”…
Leaving your country is always a difficult decision, and whoever has experienced it understands the sacrifice it entails. When I left Poland at 18, I thought I was going to be in paradise, but to my disappointment it was far from that. I had to learn a new language and work hard to provide for myself. What kept me motivated was the hope for a better future and an independent life.…

I grew up in Vietnam and accepted Vietnam education during my childhood. It was July 19, 2011 when my parents had the opportunity to come to America as immigrants. I have great appreciation for my grandparents and parents because they gave up everything to come to America. They did this to give their children a better life and education. I still remember the day that I left my country; it was a beautiful memory that I won’t ever forget. The plane took off at 5:00 am, so we had to arrive at the airport at 3:00 am. All of my family was there with us, we were hugging and crying. It took all my strength and courage to keep from crying that day; I had to control my feelings. I couldn’t cry because if I cried it would’ve been too hard to say goodbye. Finally, I couldn’t control my tears; they raced down…
It was a simple beginning to a beautiful day in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The dry morning air brought a wealth of warmth to my tired skin. "Today is a day of opportunity," I thought. I would hopefully be entering the work force after a long battle with unemployment. I was excited because my days were filled with nothing but boredom and my mind was occupied with nothing but despair. Hopefully, today would be the day that I left my past behind me.…
I was just playing video games, until my mom told me that we are going to Disney Land tomorrow. I was 8 years old at the time. I was really excited because I have never been to Disney Land before. So I went to bed early because I was so excited, I wanted to try all the rides there.Next morning, Today is the big day for me. We are going to Disney Land for the first time. The trip took 2 hours longer. We had to stop at some places to eat until we finally arrived in Disney Land. I was amazed, it was a big place. I rode trains, boats and other rides.…
If I had a lot of money,. I would like to travel all over the world. I would travel throughout the U.S. and Canada first., I have heard the scenery is beautiful in the Pacific Northwest,. so I think I would begin my North American travels there. Until I have friends in Prague and Budapest, I would go to Eastern Europe next. While I had time, I would stay in Eastern Europe for two months, INCORRECTand I would go to Russia and China afterward. After I had done that,; I would go to a south sea island like Tahiti. (I remember how lovely the country looked in paintings by Paul Gauguin.) My next stop would be Japan. Then, instead of heading east toward North America,. I would go west to the game preserves in Africa. On returning from my safari,;…
