Attention Getters- setting-onomatopoeia- question My first time Jet Skiing in Mexico Have you ever gone jet skiing and felt so nervous that you had butterflies in your stomach? I have. In Los Cabos, Mexico, the water was clear blue like the sky. It was on November 20, 2017 when I was 13 years old ,and me and my sisters went jet skiing for the first time. WHOOSH! I was so nervous and scared to go on a jet ski. I woke up the morning and I put off my jet ski suit and walk out of the hotel…
Stepping off the Avensa flight onto the bright and cool gray terminal, Maria Venegas, accompanied by her husband and one-year old baby, drops her bags to the floor and shouts, “Hello Miami, we are here and we are going to stay!” This was the scene on a warm May day in 1996 as my parents and I arrived to the United States with three months’ worth of money and an incomparable determination to build a new life. I do not remember the moment, nor was I even remotely aware of what was going on in my…

With a slight grin pulling at my lips, I close my eyes and begin to wonder what the world will look like on the other side…
As we accessed the airplane, we got greeted by radiant stewardesses. Since Lillian ordered first-class tickets, our elegant seating place was at the front of the airplane. The airplane eventually got filled by people from various cultures, so we started to buckle our seats as assigned by the radio and off we flew to Cairo, Egypt. It was early in the morning, which then I decided to take a tranquil nap. In a few minutes, I rose from the alarms of “delightful” stewardesses and the cries of babies.…
