St. Pete’s Beach Since the origins of humanity, people have thought of the beach as a way to relax and make memories. But in my mind, one beach stands tall above all of the others. St. Pete’s beach in St. Petersburg, Florida, is the most magnificent place that anyone could ever hope to go.

Without a doubt, James Show - being courageous, willing, an opportunist, and a fast thinker – has all the characteristics of a hero. Most outwardly seen and spoken of are…
Have you ever had maple syrup in the morning, with your either pancakes or waffles? Well if you have had maple syrup on anything, have you ever thought where it comes from? It comes from sap and that's what I am writing about. I picked this subject because I have always wondered where maple syrup came from.

As we laugh, My cousins shouts “Foreal Ni---,“ shocked at how loud he said it, I said “Hey calm…
Once I’m inside I nonchalantly brush my teeth, put in my contacts, and comb my hair. 9:30 a.m. As I make my way up the stairs I can smell a variety of sweet and inviting smells.
