Ideal Vacation

Have you ever been on a cruise? Well, if you haven’t you should consider going. It is very relaxing and soothing. I recently went on a mini vacation with my grandmother, sister and mother for four days. Our destination was Baja, Mexico. When boarding the cruise ship you already feel relaxed and calm because all you hear are the soothing sounds of the waves hitting the rocks and the seagulls flying. While cruising to Mexico there are many activities to do on board the ship. Such as swimming, gambling, basketball, dancing and last but not least eating. The food on the ship is amazing and it is served 24 hours. Can you imagine food whenever you want no charge? During my vacation I went in the Jacuzzi, ate and slept. It was very relaxing.
When the ship docked at our destination we were able to get off and take a shuttle to downtown Mexico. The ride into Mexico was not long at all and we had a hilarious tour guide. When we got off there were many shops around to buy gifts for family and friends. After walking around and looking at all the different shops in Mexico we decided to get back on the ship and relax .
Every night there is a dinner that you may or may not attend, it is your choice and there are a variety of delicious meals served. I enjoy the dinners because you sat with people that you may not know and it was a great way to interact with others on the ship . You were assigned tables when you bought your ticket for the cruise so it was no big shock on sitting with someone that you may not know. Along with meeting new people the food was awesome. This is one vacation that I will always remember !

Canceling Field Trips

Persuasive Writing Prompt #1 : Canceling All Field Trips

High school year is the biggest step being taken from a student that is graduating from junior high. If you were to cancel the field trips for the remainder of the year do you know how disappointed many students will be? Or think about all the rebellious things that would be conducted by the student body. You telling me that I won’t be able to go on any more field trips because of the financial aspect would be a joke. I mean there are many ways to fundraise and get donations from many different companies. If the financial aspect is the only reason why we are not allowed to go on any field trips then I say that the school needs to start a fundraising committee.
Parents would become involved if we sent home a letter asking for donations of water, candy , chips , juice , etc so that we can open a student store and start selling these items to have some money that we can use for different activities. Not only can we do things inside of school but also outside. Yard sales, Car Washes and Bake Sales can be done on a Saturday or Sunday chosen by the student body and we can all participate and persuade people to help out our school.
Some field trips should not be mandatory and you should let the student body decide. If there is a trip that is going to Six Flags then of course the people that want to go will need to come out of pocket to pay not only for their ticket but for the bus as well , maybe 10 – 15 dollars extra. Also when planning a field trip let the student and parents know in advance so they are aware of when the money is due so that more students can attend and the bus will be taken care of.
Now, you with fundraising and donations coming from different resources around d us, I believe that we will be able to do more things then you expected. When we speak up for what we want we will always get more dreams and goals accomplished. Sticking together is really what it is all about. Once we plan, organize and create we will be more than surprised of what our outcome will be. All it takes is determination and motivation to get us closer to our dreams and we will all get through this together.
