Blog Entry #6 : The Perfect Getaway

Image
THE PERFECT GETAWAY   For spring break this year, my girlfriends and I decided to take a trip that would give us the perfect balance of relaxation and adventure. After weeks of endless schoolwork and juggling jobs, I was more than ready for a break. We all needed to escape the daily grind, so we packed up the car and headed for La Jolla, California. The thought of a coastal escape, with the warm sun on our faces and the sound of the ocean in the background, was exactly what I needed to hit the reset button. The drive there was filled with excitement, laughter, and, of course, a playlist that had us singing along the whole way. The excitement was tangible, and as we arrived in La Jolla, I could feel my stress dissipating. Arriving in La Jolla, I was immediately struck by the breathtaking scenery. The ocean views were even more stunning than I had imagined, stretching out as far as the eye could see. We spent hours just walking along the beach, chatting about everything and nothing ...

Blogs Entry #4 : Washington D.C.

 The Beauty of Washington, D.C. Last year, my family and I went on an unforgettable trip to Washington, D.C., to witness the iconic cherry blossoms in full bloom. After hearing so much about the beauty of D.C. during this season, I decided to invite my best friend along, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable adventures we’ve ever had. The combination of vibrant flowers, rich history, and biking around the city made it an experience unlike any other. We reached D.C. right when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom, and I recall the wonder on my face as I emerged from the car. The city burst with color, making the Tidal Basin seem enchanting. The delicate pink and white flowers framed the water, creating an almost dreamlike atmosphere. We wandered along the shore for hours, capturing pictures and just relishing the beauty of the moment. This was a picture I took on my first day of the trip!   After admiring the cherry blossoms, we decided to take a bike ride around ...

Blogs Entry #3 : A Sweet Holliday

Sweet Holliday Moments By:Jenna Rankin The sound of the clear plastic wrapper crackling fills the air as I twist and tug at it, eager to free the stubborn candy cane inside. At first, it holds on tight, but then, with a satisfying rip, the bright red and white-striped treat is finally out! It feels so smooth and solid in my hand, the curved tip fitting perfectly against my palm. The shiny surface glimmers in the light, and I can't help but run my fingers along those spiral stripes, enjoying that cool, firm texture. Holding it brings on all the warm, festive vibes—instantly reminding me of Christmas trees, stockings, and cozy snowy nights.   https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=izZqxRRk&id=5F40A9D8344BD9739C80F6FD737333E1AE4A42AE&thid=OIP.izZqxRRk8NX-kQEZrS8m1AHaD5&mediaurl=https%3a%2f%2fwallpapercave.com%2fwp%2fwp4913108.jpg&cdnurl=https%3a%2f%2fth.bing.com%2fth%2fid%2fR.8b366ac51464f0d5fe910119ad2f26d4%3frik%3drkJKruEzc3P99g%26pid%3dImgRaw%26r%...
