How I Spent My Summer Vacation I hate when final exams begin, I get so stressed and nervous that sometimes I feel like I’m about to fail. My mom always reminds me of how crying and thinking about being stressed is not the answer. I realized how my mom doesn’t like watching me worrying about anything. I took everything seriously wanting to make my mom proud and also not screwing up my summer vacation. Our summer plans all started when the weather became really hot. Saudi Arabia’s weather is usually the hottest of all GCC countries and if you are living in the eastern or western province you would be stuck with all of the humidity. I know you are probably saying it’s always hot or warm in Saudi Arabia but listen to the whole story. Our summer…

Gender Roles Mediation has been portraying negative stereotypes about gender since it was created. People may not always notice that the media of TV shows are influencing them, but they are. No one can escape being influenced by media. This has happened to me. I have watched The Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother and loved it; however, I never noticed the many gender stereotypes that it has portrayed. Until I read an article explaining the stereotypical roles assigned. People believe…
I thought being raised in Indiana was awful. Of all the places in the world I could be born, it had to be Indiana. I loved that Indianapolis was dubbed Naptown because it felt like such an appropriate name for a town that never has anything going on after sleep. I’d always hoped that I would grow up and go someplace new and live a more exciting and fulfilling life. However, my perspective all changed after my freshmen year when my family had the exciting opportunity to go on a vacation to…

We were talking about everyone's day and what plans we all had for that evening. As our conversation continued, the topic of vacation came up. My family planned to go to Virginia Beach for a few days, and we were leaving that upcoming Friday.…
Plan and prepare a vacation Planning a vacation takes as much time as taking a vacation. It’s not possible to plan a vacation in an hour and travel off to spend it. It’s very time consuming and requires many arrangements. Many phone calls will be made and cash will be spent. The longer to plan it the more you’d appreciate and enjoy the vacation. Many questions come to mind in planning a vacation. Where do I begin? What’s my first step? What’s my second, and third step? Seems overwhelming…
This summer my parents were sitting at home on a boring sunday night while I was out with my friends. My mom texted me and said I need to come home soon because we were going on a trip tomorrow and my flight leaves around one.

I was actually really upset because it was towards the end of summer and I wanted to stay here and hangout with my friends. So the next morning my Dad and…
