I had the pleasure of going on a trip to Central America this past spring break, and there I saw the most beautiful sights I could imagine. The best among the best resided in the small country of Belize. Although smaller than the state I reside in, the tropical area was filled with life and wonderful landscapes. While zip-lining through the canopy of the rainforest I saw massive trees teeming with insects and primates. Birds, of all different colors, would fly from the trees as you travelled from one tree to the next. Even in the distance of the horizon, you could see a small glance of the ocean and coastline. But as you travelled through this canopy, the most amazing sight was just being surrounded by the green foliage, everywhere life. The sight reminded me of Joyce Kilmer’s famous poem: “Think that I will never see / A poem as lovely as a tree / Poems are made by fools like me / But only God can make a tree.”

As we feel our responsibility to keep our house members clothed and protected, our dogs also deserve the same, since they have become so attached to our life due to their faithfulness. When we go out for walking of shopping our friendly pet accompanies us and we will feel proud if our dog is also clothed decently in a stylish way. There are available in the market different designs of good quality little dog clothes from which we can choose the best ones according to the size of our pet. Summer clothes are designed to keep the dog safe from sun’s heat and for cold weather in the winter there are suitably designed special clothes. So let us make our dogs stylish by the use of dog clothes.

If I won the lottery today, assuming as I have to that it is a large pot, I would be able to change a lot of things about my life. However, I do not know how much I would actually alter.  At my age, the money probably would not last me the rest of my life, and I am too ambitious in my current education to just retire. I would first off pay for my large amounts of student loans. The rest I would use to buy a nice apartment and furnish it with some cool technology and other amenities. Other than that, I would invest the rest of the money, and bide time until I am older and want money for a nice house and car.

A family tradition is a way to convey a historical and genealogical meaning to your children through contemporary means. Therefore, the best tradition is one that combines past and present, while bringing a family together. My tradition would be the same way started by my family back in my childhood, even if it has not been retained for quite some years. This is the annual Labor Day retreat to my grandparent’s farm and subsequent camping trip. It starts with a family reunion in the park, where we would visit relatives that we had not seen in awhile and some I have never remembered meeting. Afterwards we would spend the weekend camping at lake, filling days with fishing, kayaking, and swimming. At nights we would hang out by a bonfire and cook. Those days were traditional and unforgettable, and I would be amiss to not share them with my own family one day.
