Surfboard

Generations of Reliability With his fishing rod in tow, an elderly gentleman waves goodbye to his wife and embarks in his Subaru. In another scene, a young man drives along the highway in the early morning with a surfboard attached to his roof. Their stories diverge when they both arrive at the beach to share their love of surfing and the dependability of their Subarus. The commercial for the new Subaru Crosstrek utilizes an effective combination of compare and contrast, pathos, and ethos…

I did not let go of my dream of getting this sweet puppy and the anticipation was slowly building up to the point where my dad saw just how bad I truly wanted this. A few years later, we finally welcomed Jack into our family. Sitting on your surfboard, looking out at the water ahead of you, you spot an oncoming wave. The perfect wave moves at a constant speed traveling approximately 7 miles per hour. I am constantly finding myself in a season of waiting. Waiting for my phone to charge.…

Madison Sparby Meanwhile I had just arrived to my modeling class when I found out that Gigi Hadid would be guest teaching our class. “Alright everyone,” Gigi shouted. “Today we are going to be working on walking the runway.” Nothing that she said registered in my mind, I couldn’t believe that thee Gigi Hadid was teaching my class! Then I noticed I caught her eye, and she wouldn’t stop staring at me. She started to walk towards me, “Who might you be?” she asked. Being stupid I gawked and…

Boats have been on earth for very long time, helping people get from point A to point B and transporting goods. The first boat found was a dugout canoe found around 7500-8000 years BC. Some of the oldest civilizations such as the Egyptians and the Mesopotamians often used boats around 3000 BC. Boats have evolved dramatically since when they were first built, and their purposes have changed to (Gascoigne 2001).

A metaphor to thoroughly interpret my own cultural identity would be the coconut delicacy known as Haupia. Not only for its elegant perplexion, but for the soft clouded stature that belongs to this alien creature, which taste is only permitted to the fortunate few occupying the native islands of Hawaii. Another perplex root in the tree of my culture is Lei-making. The breathtaking row of an aligned set of flowers to form the Lei is one of the prime connections to the base of the hawaiian culture…

Therefore, snorkeling and diving are popular water activities. When I went snorkeling with my family, I saw schools of colorful fish. Other popular activities unique to Aruba is windsurfing due to its trade winds. It is windy daily which helps the surfboard go fast. My family and I enjoy sightseeing. There is a lot to see on the island because Aruba is 70 square miles. I highly recommend using ATVs to explore the island because cars are limited in how far they can travel throughout the island.…

Kailua The location that I chose to observe was Kailua beach in Hawaii. The beach is known to be a local hotspot. There you will find many locals swimming, surfing, barbecuing, and enjoying themselves. Driving up to the beach you probably wouldn’t think that right behind the abandoned house was how you actually got to the beach. There is a small parking lot that locals wait to park in. There is no paved pathway to get to the beach there are only paths on the grass that have been made by people.…

each other. My board started to shake then all of a sudden we heard a “BOOM” thunder and lightning came. We looked at each other and tried to go back as fast as we can. Then it hit it hit me…. Literally. Lightning had strike me I luckily was on my surfboard and didn’t fall into the water. My friends took me home and I didn’t wake up until the next day. During it all, I was passed out but I started to get weird dreams or visions. I saw images of fire coming out of my hand, moving it with my mind…

sparkling Christmas trees with ornaments. During the fall, they have beautiful trees with orange leaves and hanging from the ceiling are school supplies to honor back to school time. Spring brings beautiful cherry blossom trees. Bright flip-flops, surfboards, and sun cutouts are a must for summer. Even though the décor changes, the product placement does not. The store is very well-organized. Customers are able to find all of the scents in the many forms they come in. The travel size,…
