Ocean liner

Float on With the wind calm and the lake reminding me of glass, I cast out, hoping for once I would catch something that was a little more marvelous than a bloody catfish. I had the sun shining down on me, allowing my reflection to be seen in the water. The day was absolutely stunning, with the sun beating down on me sitting on that dock. The smell of gasoline from the boats and the sound of geese and ducks all around. Seeing the clear water glisten and the movement of the fish beneath me made…

Dumbo Octopus The small octopus in Finding Nemo is a dumbo octopus which obtained its name from the famous Disney elephant Dumbo. Despite the fact that this octopus doesn’t live on a coral reef, but on the bottom of the ocean it also isn’t pink. They do in fact live all over the world including Australia. The dumbo octopus is not very well known, but it has amazing physical traits, behavior, and reproductive abilities. This particular octopus is much smaller compared to other species of octopi.…

There are many films out there in the world of cinema where the audience has only seen the film from one angle. It is like going to the beach and all you can see is the surface of the ocean when there is so much more than just the surface. Film writers and directors want the audience to dig deeper and watch the film from multiple angles and different perspectives. Many films aim at a truth that they are trying to portray to the audience. The truth doesn’t necessarily have to be presented…

Lucas sunbathed on the balcony of his two-story house in Eastern Florida. The sun beat down on the ever-growing population of the town. The fact that it was summer meant that it was already hot. That temperature was driven up by Global Warming and what day it was- The Summer Solstice. Normally, Lucas would only go outside today for a few minutes, and following schedule, he had been inside for the rest of the day except for now. The stark white balcony was in deep contrast with the rest of…

Like Mother, Like Daughter I am sitting on a wet bench. Of course, it would occur to me to go to a park right after the rain, all alone while the rays of the sun start to reappear making the park, which looked so dull and empty upon arriving, look full of life and color. Its warmth grows this sensation within me as if everything will be okay. How is this possible? I walked myself into this park with an emotion that pressed against my chest; it feels as if a thick liquid was replacing my…

rent 2 paddleboards. The towel boys got me all set up and had the boards waiting for Trey and I on the beach. To begin with, paddle boarding looks incredibly easy, but that’s only when you are paddling in a calm lake beside the ocean, as opposed to being on the waves in the ocean. Eagar as ever, I trot my way into the water with no idea of what I am doing. All I know is that I've watched it on social media before, and figured that it couldn’t be that hard. Besides, I wanted to know what I was I…

Life is like a beach. Some stay on the shore, staying in their comfort, scared of the unknown. Some jump right into the water the unknown, craving a thrill or a challenge. I have always and will always strive to jump into the water. Although it so easy to stay on the shore and feel safe, jumping into the water and succeeding in the unknown is a more fulfilling path. The thought of failing may scare some and push them away from the water, but failing gets you one step closer to success. Leaning…

the feeling of wanting revenge was gone. “I can’t because you saved my life multiple times, but now I have no purpose. I lived a miserable life because of you. Each and everyday I lived so that I could one day kill you,” I said. I walked towards the ocean. Luke then took out his gun. “I didn’t want to kill you either, but I hate seeing the way you are right now,” said Luke. Then, I heard a gunshot, and slowly all the colors started to fade, and it became dark. In the distance however was a…

Castaway assessment 1. To critique the film castaway I would say that they do not show enough of what he had to do to survive for the 4 years on the island they showed him catching a few fish and the showed him cracking coconuts, but they never showed him trying to catch any animals or setting any traps that he might find on an island. Also, I would have a little bit more of the time that they were having at home searching for him or at his funeral. They just showed him at the island for the…
