Nautical terms

Every year more and more shoes where added to the old crippled willow tree. Any shoe you could think of was up there, even the really expensive ones like Jordans. The shoe tree was one of the most memorable thing from the long drives up to Boyne City Michigan. Driving into the touristy town was always my favorite part, smelling the fudge, hearing the waves crash against the docks and seeing all the seagulls flying around. As you kept heading down the main road following it to all its curves and loops you would run into my Grandparents house. They lived in a large log cabin on a gated drive. My cousins and I went to our Grandparents house for most of the summer. We went hiking, swimming, boat rides, and many other exciting activities for summer time. About three years ago they decided to send use to the sailing camp on Lake charlevoix. I wasn’t should what to think I have been on motor boats but never s small sail boat with people I never meant. It was a two week long camp and for the first few days we stayed on land and learned the basics. I was hesitant to go on the boats right away because since I was younger we had to pick the older kids to ride on our sail boats. The sail boats fit six people, three on each side.

That day we went out on the boats, on our boat was Gram, Seth, and Michael, then there was Me and my…

I have arrived in India after a long voyage that has lasted many months. I departed on my voyage this year. I already sailed on ships before, as you all remember, and have a lot of experience.

Now here is my story. I can tell you right now, my love, that this was definitely not an easy journey.…

Everyone had their escape, and Grayson was no different. Instead of dealing with more headache and squawking financial advisers, he opted to have his captain ready the extravagant yacht to set sail. Departing from his home (which will be described later) in Miami Beach, the boat cut through the crystalline waters en route to tropical paradise further south. Grayson found comfort in the hum of the on-board motors beneath the ship, the sound of the waves breaking across the navy colored hull, and…

experience, the ability to see the long term goals of college, and the sense of resilience, that when things do become difficult you can have the strength to get back up. My college experience got off to a very rocky start and I almost never recovered. Perhaps if I had read this article I would have been able to start off with the courage I needed. College is a new sometimes frightening experience which is understandable for student who weeks ago had to ask to use the bathroom. But courage is…

Having grown up in a family that was torn by divorce, the crippling changes in the economic situation in my home country and eventually immigration, my only financial goal is to be without a lack of assets. Having to pay my own way through undergrad, as well as providing for my personal needs such as clothing, technology and transportation and almost all of my own groceries since I was old enough to work, at no point in my life thus far have I been able to save any of my income for long periods…

had my own worries and thoughts to process also. Thankfully, my boyfriend made life easier as he was my rock and support person. He was always there when I needed him. I didn’t realise how much my dad’s diagnosis was affecting me at the time. Physically I felt a whole in my heart; I became lazy and closed off. However, mentally I would find myself zoning out and not paying attention. My teachers must have notice my unusual behaviours and pushed me to have counselling. I’m not really sure if it…
