My trip to Myrtle Beach!!

 

4/21/22


In the morning I went to the office, while at the office I wrote a blog and painted. I made ten bookmarks. Then around four fifteen I started packing up my bag. At four thirty we( me and my parents) started heading out. The road trip took four hours to drive and we did not stop once. Finally we reached the resort we checked in. After we brought everything upstairs(we were on the second floor with the indoor pool)I collapsed on the bed and started to flick through the TV channels. About 45 minutes later we walked over to a ramen restaurant for dinner.

On Friday, right after breakfast we went to the indoor pool. It was freezing. After about 10 minutes I left the indoor pool and went to the beach. After setting up the shade I went into the water to start boogie boarding. For lunch we went to a restaurant with a view of the ocean. After lunch I played at the resort's water park until 6:30. For dinner we went to an Indian restaurant. Before I went to bed I got to see a fireworks show that the resort put on.

For breakfast on Saturday I ate pancakes. After I ate breakfast I went to the outdoor pool for about ½  an hour. After the pool I went to the beach and boogie boarded for a while. We went to a sushi buffet for an early dinner and I had 1 plate as an appetizer, 1 plate for a main course, and 2 plates of desert. On the way back to the resort we went to an amusement park called broadway at the beach. I went on about 13 rides, and we left at 11:00!


4/24/22 (only the road trip home)

Once we checked out of the resort we went to a bagel place for breakfast. I got a Blueberry bagel and finished it in about 15 minutes. After we finished our bagels we went back to Broadway at the beach. At Broadway at the beach we went to Ripley's Believe or not, and Ripley's mirror maze. After we finished Broadway at the beach we got back on the road.For lunch we stopped at Jersey Mikes. When we needed to refill the gas we stopped at Pilot. After  Pilot we did not stop again and a while later we reached home.

       On Friday after the power went out, making our whole neighborhood suddenly dark, my parents decided to go to their  work to get internet. Having nothing better to do other than read but it was too dark I decided to listen to music and  an audiobook, while looking out of the window with my only source of light being a small flashlight. However before  my father, left he boiled water and put it In a thermos so I could make ramen later,      Because I had nothing to do I used the hall to practice volleyball. At times there was enough sunlight to read by a  window or do a diamond dots sticky puzzle. When I got bored I would see if anything had happened outside by  going into my room and looking at the window which overlooked our front yard. Since I didn’t want to waste the  battery from the flashlight I tried to stay near a window as a source of light as much as possible. For dinner we went  to Red bowl and I got s...

My expirence at the Whitewater Center Rock Ride Paddle camp

Image
  The Whitewater camp called Rock, Ride, Paddle is a one week long camp in which you do various activities throughout the week. Some of the activities include whitewater kayaking, rock climbing, and mountain biking. There are other camps like Adventure camp but they are not focused on certain activities. Below are the activities we did and how each of them were. Whitewater Kayaking Whitewater kayaking is when you ride rapids and learn how to control a kayak. The first thing you learn is  how to put on the gear and after that you learn how to wet exit if you flip over. After that you get in the  water and practice. We were supposed to kayak for around 2 hrs per day but the first day that we were  supposed to kayak they were testing the water and didn't want people in the water. So on the second day  we spent 4 hours kayaking to make up for the time we missed. On the second day we first swam some of  the rapids to understand how they flowed. Then we rode the ...

Why we shouldn't give participation trophies

            The tradition of giving participation trophies started in 1922 when a basketball team in Ohio gave its players the trophies. They give kids participation trophies to make them feel good about playing the sport. The trophies are usually awarded to the players that don't score high. However, participation trophies are not only awarded to kids they are also given to older age groups and for other activities not just Basketball. Then, an author for a newspaper named Victor Martinez started talking about participation trophies being bad for kids, in 1998.  Unlike many kids that like receiving participation awards because it makes them feel special I feel that they produced an effect that makes kids feel overconfident and when they fall it is worse.  I play a lot of sports and when I get a trophy when my team or myself get a trophy for doing nothing, it feels unfair. To me getting a participation trophy is like getting a participati...
