Reflection
Wood’s Hole turned out to be more intriguing than I had first thought. We started our journey at the National Marine Fisheries Aquarium (NMPH). We began by watching a woman that taught us about seals and sea lions, while also having them do tricks such as the banana lay, jumping in the air to reach a toy, and twirling. Them we went inside where many exhibits and tanks containing a variety of fish were. My favorite fish of all was the toadfish. It is not only one of the few types of fish to be launched to space, but it is also one of the most laziest and hideous fish in the sea. It almost most resembles me in a way since I too can be lazy and sluggish. The other place we travelled to be known as the Wood’s Hole Oceanographic Institute. Here we learned about marine research vessels like the Alvin, a submersible vehicle that has done over 6000 dives. The most extravagant face I explored was involving the hydrothermal vents; cylinder shaped tubes that pump out high temperature gases form the earth. I was looking much more forward to Martha’s Vineyard, but Wood’s Hole was actually really thrilling, making it and adventure I will remember later in life.

Too Much Rain
I am soaked. Rain has fallen from the sky the entire day. The clouds have been endlessly crying, making my day miserable as well. I had to tread through trails with my only pair of shoes, leaving me stuck with cold, wet, uncomfortable footwear for the rest of my time in the Vineyard. I ask the clouds to please be happy; to show me some sunshine, but they just keep shedding their tears on me. I continue to be drenched with water, wishing for the day to just end. Then the wind comes along, knowing I am already depressed and cold. He starts blowing more wind at me, creating a freezing sensation throughout my body. I am now wet and completely frozen. This day needs to end. When I finally can’t bear it anymore, I am back in shelter. This day has taken me to my limit. It is almost over now. I can relax and take a warm shower, relieving my body of that freezing sensation, ending all of my suffering. The day is finally over, and I am dry.

Why am I so Tired?
Why am I so tired? I don’t understand. I went to bed on time, but it is still hard for me to stand. I am exhausted. I can’t wake up this early. It puts me in too much of a hurry. Why am I so tired? I wish I knew the answer, but I can’t seem to figure it out. All I do is pout. I am fatigued. I ended up being the last one ready. My mind just isn’t thinking steady. I am depressed now. I don’t even feel like speaking to anybody. I just want to be away from everybody. Why am I so tired? I was having so much fun, but my body is trying to tell me,” we’re done”. I don’t want to believe him. Everything is starting to grow dim. I am just so tired.

Sunset
So many beautiful colors mixed together in the sky.
Under the sun, watching it disappear over the horizon, turning everything around us to darkness as it left.
No one in the world would not enjoy watching its beauty.
Such a gorgeous sight to watch.
Everybody thought it was perfect, nothing could ruin this sunset.
Tackling the waves afterwards for a late night swim.
