Statistics are mathematical equations. They are numbers. They mean little to me. Statistically, there is a 000000001% chance that you are the person that will read this essay. And yet, here you are. So, when someone has a 3% chance of living, many will say that person is doomed to die, but I don’t agree. As a typical Minnesotan family, we planned to spend the day on the lake. We loaded up the boat and set out for the day. My three cousins, aunt and a family friend left the dock with enough…

right along the shallow flooded fields along Culver Boulevard for a wide variety of ever-changing shorebirds and waders. Walking to the left will take you to the breakwalls of Marina del Rey and the beach of Playa del Rey. While there may be more gulls and shorebirds such as Sanderling along the beach, the breakwalls are where most of the action seems to be. While walking down the breakwall surrounding the main river…

I am Calvin Aberg. I am 5’10”, I have hair and eyes that are chocolate. I am involved in many activities, my favorite of which is basketball. I enjoy basketball because I always like to savor the soft swoosh of my basketball as it softly falls through the bottom of the net. Another activity that I greatly enjoy is baseball, where the loud crack of the bat is accompanied by the wafting smells of hotdogs and peanuts as the ball soars out of the stadium and to the other side of the world.…

Florida is my favorite place to go because there is so much to do.,like going to the beach, swimming, or even fishing.

My favorite activity in Florida is to go go cart racing, going to the beach, and swimming. There are lots of hotels in Florida. Florida has more buildings than Alabama and taller buildings than Alabama. The reason I like Florida is because it is always warm…

Coastal geomorphology is similar to geomorphology, but the area of focus is on seas and oceans (Davidson-Arnott, 2010). Researches study the development and progression of the coast and how it reacts under particular conditions including sea level changes. The IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report in 2013 stated that sea level rise will occur in approximately 95% of the ocean area, with estimates that seas will rise between 26 and 82 cm. Therefore, we can assume it is probable…

the wood planks of the walk as she made her way quickly past the small shops and restaurants. She stopped in front of the Beach Emporium, the largest clothing store in Sandy Hallow, and peered into the window. A hand-painted sign read: Bikinis Half Off. Jessica chuckled to herself. Was that meant to be a joke? No. Mrs. Hopping, the quiet old woman whose family had owned the Beach Emporium for a hundred years, had no sense of humor. She was a stern, unfriendly woman who smiled only when punching…

crabs return to the ports and along the secluded rivulets of beach encompassed by water-worn stone. The winds change and the smell of moss and sea salt returns, and the gulls migrate in innumerable flocks as wide as the wood and white as the moon. The fishermen begin to take longer journeys and their wives cease their knitting of warm clothing. The gulls stop here every year to feed on the eggs of the crabs. For a few weeks the beach stinks of rotting crabmeat. Hermit crabs trade shells…

If I had a round trip ticket to travel anywhere in the world. Where would it be? What would I do? What would happen when I get there? I might just go to a city below sea level. Why on earth would anyone want to go to a city below any type of bodies of water? It’s still a mystery for me. However, Dominican Republic is below sea level and that is where I would like to visit one day. It seems as if there is so much to do there. Dominican Republic is well known for its beautiful beaches. Also, one…
