I was so excited. Though I was 2 weeks early, I was packed and ready. The weeks prior to the cruise were the longest weeks of my life. All I was thinking about was how fun it would be, how cool the water would feel on my warm skin, and how much free ice cream I could eat once we arrived. I had always wanted to go on a cruise, but I was always too young and wouldn’t be able to do much, but splash around in the shallow end of the pool. Two years before I would be going on my very first cruise, my aunts and uncles, along with my parents, went on a big family cruise, no kids of course. *Rolls eyes* It was summer so me and all my cousins stayed at my grandma's where we complained about having no fun while still running fast through her house.

We went on bouncy castles on the water all day and shopped till we dropped at the market. My dad bought me a necklace that a man shaped into my name with a sharp knife. I knew that I would cherish that necklace for the rest of my life. It’s was a necklace and it was something small, but it has a lot of meaning to me. I realized that I had a great time and that I could've had the same amount of fun the previous day. I was with my family the whole day, I could've gone to the kids room upstairs and hung out with my brother. I vowed that day that I would appreciate the little things I had and live in the moment. All I can say is that the rest of the cruise was something that I would never
