Improved Essays
My eyes were closed and all I taste was salt water. I never imagine that my loser brother would be the person to save me, but in that hot summer day it happened.
It all started in a hot summer day in the Bahamas. My parents, brother and I had gone to the beach. The trip to the beach was so fun and adventurous. We saw different types of trees and plants we had never seen in Philadelphia before. Once we arrived, we settled in our belongings and went straight to the beach. The water was crystal clear and it was so appealing and eye catching.
As we were walking down to the water my brother and I was fooling around as usual. I stepped into the warm crystal blue water and instantly felt so relaxed and cool. The immature side of me started to splash

    Growing up in Jamaica was not what some may think as ideal, it has been described as a Third World Country, but to me, it was just home. Third world indeed, poor, violent at times; a contradiction, with its sandy beaches, clear blue skies, delectable food, feel good music, and some of the hardest working people one can ever have the pleasure of meeting, who refused to stay where life may have placed them, but strived to climb above those circumstances and attempt to carve out a life for themselves and their children. Let me introduce you to the Jamaica that I grew up in and remembered; I remember the endless summer holidays growing up off the Sligoville Road, in a small district called Mt. Moreland, where the playground…

    Like a powerful motorized speed-boat, I swam across the lake to go retrieve my sister after she got thrown off of the inflatable balloon attached to our boat. My arms and legs were burning out of exhaustion, and my mouth could only pick up the taste of the lake’s murky, muddy water. My family and I were headed out to the lake to spend a sunny afternoon together. We rarely have time to see each other since all of us have our own tight, busy schedules, so my dad had the brilliant idea that we should all go to the lake together. As we arrived at the lake, my sister and I grabbed the food and lawn chairs from the truck and went to go look for a spot while my parents got hold of the tent and fishing rods and followed us.…
