The first place we went was in the Liberty Bell. The Liberty Bell was used to tell government officials to come to meet during colonial times. After that we went to the Mint in Philadelphia.

You could choose the type of chocolate the things in the chocolate and customize the wrapper of the chocolate. The next thing was the self-guided tour. The tour showed us how the chocolate was made. Then we went to the chocolate taste testing. That is where we learned to be a chocolate taste tester.

    In Recipe, by Nicholson Baker he write about how to make chocolate sauce. Baker takes a different approach rather than laying it out in a list of instructions, he does so in a big paragraph. He takes something that is simple to make and elongates the process through his very descriptive recipe. I think baker’s main argument/purpose is that there many ways you can give someone a recipe.…

    We got to see stalagmites, stalactites, flowstones, chandeliers and soda straws. We took lots and lots of pictures because if I didn't slow my family, I feel like they wouldn't have believed me. We spent about half our day there, and then after that she took me to the San Antonio Zoo. That zoo was humongous, way bigger than the one in the valley. I saw monkeys, elephants, rhinoceros, lions, zebras, and even penguins.…

    Sun shining overhead, the sound of waves gently rushing ashore, the slightly salty smell of the ocean, and the feel of my toes in the sand – this was what I had been anxiously awaiting for weeks. Spring break in Florida was an amazing seven days! Since my parents retired and bought a house in Florida, they have been spending their winters soaking up the sun, while the rest of us stay here in Kansas and suffer through the long, cold, dreary season. This year my kids and I were able to visit over spring break so we had a chance to enjoy the amazing weather and sites for ourselves.…

    Spring Break 2014… Helmand Province Afghanistan. A heat comparable to the feeling of opening a hot oven, blisters two Marines as they talk to pass time during their patrol. “Yo Webb, what are you doing when you get out of this shithole country and ‘EAS’ (end of active service)?” asked one, “Well, gonna use my GI Bill, live that college life and make something better of myself…” replied the other Marine as an explosion goes off interrupting them. What is free is not free, someone out there, somewhere, fought for it one way or another.…

    The anticipation for Thanksgiving break is over the top. The thought of home cooked meals, family, and no professors talking a student 's ear off for a week are heavenly. Of course all the classic thanksgiving things happen but there are also psychological things that go on. (Darn that psychology sneaking its way into everything, it obviously never goes on break.) Although psychology is used every minute of every day i 'm only going to talk about 5 concepts, persuasion, cognition, emotion, personality, and the self.…

    It’s that time of year again. Winter break is right around the corner and the one thing in the way of it are finals. Cramming begins when we have to learn an entire semester’s worth of information into our small over-stimulated brains just long enough for us to retain it for all those papers, tests, or presentations. It’s time for the stress and procrastinations to begin and a nice cold beer once you end.…

    Fall break is a time for us as students to relieve ourselves from the stresses of school. It’s a time to be with family and friends and to enjoy delicious food. It can also be a time to reflect on how psychology is in everything we do. Our motives, actions, and feelings are all brought back to psychology. Over this break, I made note of a few instances that could easily relate to the science.…

    My mom packed heaps of stuff and somehow, magically it all fits in this small 2 by 4 luggage bag.

    Christmas break in my opinion is probably the second best brake that we have throughout our school year. The main thing I like about Christmas break is how long it is. But even though I like how long we are off school it's almost like we don't have a break because basketball takes over. We get a few days off but the rest of the days are hitting the gym early in the mornings for two to three hours a day. The days I have is the best thing in the world because I get to relax and do something fun for once.…
