So.
This time today I thought I was going to be back in New Jersey and be able to write this blog post at my computer, you know like a normal person. But as fate would have it, all my flights got cancelled, so now I am writing on my phone with minimal power on a beach in Maui. Not a bad place to be stuck, but those of you who take AP classes, you know I’m gonna be screwed for AP review... Anyway, here’s a picture of my view, maybe it’ll give me some inspiration for my creative writing blog post, maybe it won’t, but let’s hope I can catch a flight home...
Makena Beach, Maui HI
Like the person I am, I was NOT inspired to write some washed out rendition of a poem about how much I love the beach. (There are way too many of those in circulation). Instead, I am going to attempt to crack this out so I can get off my phone and enjoy myself at my extra day at the beach. (In retrospective I probably should have written this earlier in the month...)
It’s been awhile since I’ve written one of these blogposts where I just pour out whatever satirical junk falls out of my mind, I apologize for that, but it entertains me to see what I put pen to paper. Or in this case my phone’s keyboard. Either way there is much to discuss, the pleasantries of spring break, our head on sprint to summer, which is ultimately blockaded by PARCC, finals, and AP testing. All of which is loved so so dearly...
It was a long uphill climb to finally get to spring break, while I still might be on it, our week of relaxation is far too short. Where immediately following, the bombardment of all that testing begins.
Fun. I know right.
UPDATE: Contrary to what I wrote before, this took two days to write. So my flights finally got figured out, but the plane got delayed two hours and my luggage broke. When is life not a hot mess though, it’s just how it is sometimes. Maybe I’m just meant to stay in Hawaii, who knows at this point? Peace out readers.
Hawaii is a great place to get stranded! I like the voice you used in this piece.
