Over And Out
Have you ever felt like you were
meant to do something? That is exactly how I felt about the last nine months. Chancellor
decided that life is too short, and that we should travel as much of the world as possible. TA-DA! After France, Italy,
Switzerland, England, Boston, New York, Washington D.C., Philadelphia, Texas,
California, Hawaii, Arizona, and Utah it’s over. Each city had something new.
Boston has amazing history, interesting
people, and clam chowder. New York has busy streets, high skyscrapers, and
amazing broadway productions. Washington D.C. had historic sites and politics.
Philadelphia had amazing history amazing food, and sports. France had
years of history, museums, and the food. Italy had deep history, food,
and amazing people. Switzerland had breathtaking
scenery trains, and fondue. England had
bloody accents, tea, and the queen.
California had movie stars, amusement parks, and fun. Hawaii
had old traditions, amazing beaches, and animals. Arizona had hiking, biking,
and fun adventures. Utah had skiing, mountains, and fun with the family. It’s
really amazing remembering these magnificent places and thinking ”oh, yeah I went there.”
I will always remember the feeling of being on
the top of the Effiel Tower. Thinking that I was a bird then seeing that birds
do fly at this altitude. Walking up the steps of the Leaning Tower of Pisa
feeling adventurous. In California on the Egyptian ride feeling like puking my
guts out. In Hawaii, standing up on the surfboard. When I think about these
moments I can’t help but smile. Those moments will never be forgotten. It’s
crazy just thinking about these places. Going to Europe I knew it was gonna be
different, but traveling America I saw really big differences! I thought every
town was going to be somewhat like Memphis, but no.
Our
family grew so much closer also. We all have really bonded. I’m so happy all of
these life changing moments were spent with my family.
I think of the world so differently
now. There is so much history in one spot. I mean in Rome just standing in the
street under your feet are centuries and centuries of history! Just thinking about
it makes me exited all over again!
I hope
that all of you do something in your life that you’ve always
wanted to do! I know that I have, so what are you waiting for?
Over and Out.
