This decade has been the one in which we decide what kind of person we are/ want to be. So many things have happened in the years, the biggest things in my life have happened in these years. Events happened that made me realize what I want for my life. Not only the big things, but the little things. I had one huge event that happened that changed everything, it changed my daily life. I was thrown off track completely. Without that event I would not be the person I am today, it changed my point of view on life. This was all evolving around my family, which made us become closer as a whole.
Through this decade I also discovered the people I want to be around. I now know that I want to be around friends who will want to include me in things and who help me be better. I have been through friends, we all have. I have kept the important friendships through the years. I had to leave some, just because people drift, but it helped me. I now know what a real friend should look like, and I have learned to be the same back to others.
In the future I want to be a success, I want to have a great career that allows me to do whatever it is I want. I know that I want to have a job in the pediatric area. I already have a plan for college and where I would live. I know what direction I want to take for my life. In the past 10 years, I been going through what I want my future to look like, how I want it to play out. I know it will never be the way I think it is going to be, but at least I know my goal. I want a big house, bulldogs, my tortoise, a family, and a racket of great sneakers.
I have gone to Las Vegas a couple of times, but only a few times have I actually stayed and looked around the place. Usually, we stop on the way back from Colorado and just sleep overnight. Although the times I have gone I have seen all the highlights of Vegas. Such as The Fountains Of Bellagio, The Small Effie Tower, The Strip, see all the famous hotels, and Circus Circus. It was all so pretty with all the lights and designs of every place, especially since they were different with their own theme and feel.
One of my favorite times was when I was little because I went to Circus Circus with my entire family. I won so many stuff animals, with all the games my family played. I still remember the lights and looking around. My grandpa even won me what became one of my favorite stuff animals.
This video you see is all about the best places to go to when in the LA area. These area are all so beautiful and have the best atmospheres with everything that happens around and within the places. Each and every one of these places have their own and unique style and feel. The places you see in the video is what makes LA, along with the people. You can notice that Vince and Santa Monica are one of the most popular because of their gorgeous beaches and board walks. I have been to all those places except one in the video. (I have not gone to Harry Potter tour) I have been around the Los Angeles area because of my dad. He was the main reason I went to all these places. I really suggest going to them too as well if you are ever in the LA area.
Recently, my family went to Green Valley Lake for a long weekend. We meet up with friends and stayed a weekend, my parents rented a house for that weekend. It look us about 2 hours to go all the way there and up the mountain. The road all the way up the mountain way extremely windy. My mom and I got very car sick, but we finally got there.
Once we were there we had a great time. It was very cold there, it was around the 60’s during the day and in the 30’s at night, but it was such a beautiful place. It was all green and full of nature, there was a small town We stayed for three days, while we were there all we did was fish during the day time. Then during the night we would play board games and watch football. It was honestly a great weekend away.
All the information you are about to read may push you to go out and travel. You may be stopping yourself because you may only think of the small negatives. Instead of realizing there are so many more positive aspects to traveling around the world. Reading this you will have a different outlook on traveling in the end. Everyone should travel out of the area in which they live in.
Going to different countries and places allows you to be exposed to new cultures that may fascinate you. People should go and see all the differences in the world. You should take the privilege of being able to experience different kinds of food, religions, and aspects of that certain place. Like me, I have tried so many new foods that I have loved to come. Places are so different, such as laws, people, even highways. I have been to Texas, it is crazy how to complete opposite it is from California. You never know what places you could fall in love with.
If you are in an area that has the same weather all year round then you do not get to experience different types of weathers. It is so nice to see the weather you do not usually do. Seeing the snow or rain is so nice to me personally because I live in an area where it is always sunny. The first time I saw snow I was completely fascinated with it. It is such a wonderful thing to see the weathers actually change. Maybe where you live the weather does change and you just want to visit a place with constant weather. That is what California is known for.
Traveling is the perfect time to spend time with someone, whether it is family, friends or a significant other. Take the time to go experience something exciting with someone you care for. Then when you look back at those moments you will have an exciting memory with them. I have gotten so much closer to my family over the times we have travel, now we have inside jokes with each other. Traveling will help you connect and bond with a person. Who knows, you could meet someone new who becomes important in your life later.
So many doors open when you travel. There are so many more opportunities that come with traveling. There is more you can say when you have a job interview, put on a resume, apply for college, and make new investments in life. It can change your life for the better if you just travel and tell others what you have done. You will impress people with all the places you could have gone to. Personally, I have much more to say now that I have traveled a bit.
You do not want to have regrets when you are older. When you come to a certain age you cannot travel anymore because of health issues or because you are simply too tired to. That may not even be the reason, you could have kids in the future. When you travel with kids it is not the same as if you were on your own or with friends. You now have to look after someone besides yourself. Looking back at your life and never having an adventure for yourself is one of the regrets many people have. If you ask, most people would say they wished they traveled more. You do not want to have regrets, but they come with life. This is one regret you can control, so don’t let it happen.
The next few blogs are about the time when I went to Arlington Texas. My dad and brother were out there for work, so my mom and I flew out there to spent time with them. We went to different places while we were there. On our first day there we went to this place called Ripley’s Believe It Or Not. There where so many little attraction within the place, such as a mirror maze, a 4D ride, lazer tag, wax museum and a odditorium. We went to the 4D ride which was really cool, we had to blast bad guys at a rough dirt bike ride. Which I got second to last place in, but at least I didn’t lose. Then we went to the odditorium with different facts about strange things, like the worlds tallest man. Also pictures made from different things and games to play within the place. Then I went to the mirror maze with my brother. It was confusing and we lost each other a couple times and we got tricked by a fake exit. The entire place was really cool and fun, it was something different that I wasn’t expecting.
This was one of the huge statues outside of the place when you drive into the parking lot. This was a T-Rex made completely out of a certain part of metal. This thing was ridiculously tall, you could see it from miles away.
This was the best part of the entire place in my opinion. It was a dark tunnel which was lighted up by black light. There was a walk path that did not touch the ground, it only connected with the opposite end. Then the tunnel would turn fast around you in a circle. Making the illusion that you were being turning with it, which caused you to lose your balance.
For the longest time I have wanted to travel everywhere I could possibly go. So Travel Bound is all about the places I have been and places I want to go. This picture is in the Colorado Grand Mesa Mountains where I went one summer after the snow had melted. The view was absolutely amazing with the fresh cool air. I have never seen so many trees and wild life before in my life.
