The cold breeze came upon me, as I was looking down the slope, sitting on the soft sheet of snow and repeating in my mind I will succeed, then I was gone like a Ferrari going full speed in a race. At December 27, 2016, we were on the highway on Emmitsburg, MD on our way to Liberty Ski Resort to snowboard and ski for 8 hours. The 2 cars that my friends and I were in was Ben, Kevin, Joshua, Steve (me), Timothy. We all excited like never before, first, we would be dropped off at Liberty Ski resort, for 4 hours and have a thirty minutes break, then go back to the ski resort. Second, we would go back snowboarding and going skiing for the rest of 4 hours. Third, we go to the hotel then to swim in the swimming pool and to relax for at least 2 hours. …show more content…

My friends and I changed to our snowboarding gear which was a heavy jacket ( if you are a beginner like me), gloves, ski goggles, hat, snowboarding boots, and of course a snowboard. Now my friends and I were ready to snowboard, so then my friends and the adults paid for our passes to go in the ski resort. As I was walking I saw ski lifts going to high slopes and people having fun like it was no sweat, so I started to feel confident in

“Get in the car.” I yelled at my sister as she lagged behind pretending to be in her own world. I thought of all the times in the last hour and a half that I had yelled at my sister. I only did it because she annoyed me and really gets on my nerves. I thought back to when Mr. Zimmerman said we had to go on a hike.

Baseball is what many call “America’s Pastime”. It is the game that never fails to bring me from the highest highs to the lowest lows. The second that you think you are the best, the game will humble you. When you are at a loss for confidence, you will do something amazing that will turn your game around. Nothing beats the smell of the spring air, the dirty pants, the laughs with teammates and the glory of winning.

Since life is not an internal thing we allow our fears to take over our life making us stress about every detail whether it be diminutive or colossal. They make our palms gets sweaty and our legs quiver. If we do not overcome these fears in our head than we will simply die without the gratifying feeling of accomplishment. It happened on our road trip this summer at Six Flags in Colorado. My cousins and I made a deal that we had to try every ride they suggested at least once.

Next to the roads, where the sidewalks should be, sit large gutters overflowing from the week’s heavy rains. Often covered with plants and weeds or even entirely submerged, the ditches can be treacherous. One missed step and one of us might find ourselves deep inside a drainage canal. As a competitive cross-country runner in Costa Rica, conditions can be perilous on any given day and on any given run. While “cross country” implies running beyond the comforts of a high school track or gymnasium, I doubt that my peers on the Varsity teams in Fairfax, Virginia, where I lived before moving to Costa Rica, regularly dodge crater-sized potholes or run through tropical downpours for months on end.

If you don’t have religion you may find it in Zion. Whatever you believe, Zion offers proof that there is a larger spirit at work. It doesn’t matter if there is a grand architect or gods and goddesses who built a fortress of sanctuary but the sheer cliff faces and green vegetation will take your breath away. The road to Zion twists and turns through the highland before the decent into the canyon.

The most exciting time to live in Vermont is mid-February. This is the time when one is given the privilege of a 30-minute walk to school in sub-zero temperatures, with a 30-minute trudge home in the dark after a long day. It’s been four months since winter began, and it’ll be two more until it’s over. The firewood is being rationed to keep the house at a barely livable temperature, a steamy 50 degrees, and colds are so rampant that people lose half their body weight in phlegm each day. Yet, however dull Vermont may seem to students and teachers as they wrap themselves in layer after layer of flannel, make no mistake, today is the beginning of an era.

The day was just after my brother’s birthday and we had just finished celebrating his birthday. My brother was more surprised, however, by the amount of snow that covered the yards outside. We both awoke to a sight much more impressive than that of December, a white landscape obscuring everything laying on the ground, including the cars. My brother and I changed faster than firemen getting ready for a rescue, as we ran outside to see the fascinating snow that surrounded our neighborhood.
