Vocab Unit 11
With the family spring break vacation booked, we began to plan the itinerary for their trip. I did not care what we did the entire week, as long as I was near the placid ocean. Our condominium is right on the beach; the protruding rocks near the ocean can be seen from my bedroom window. Even though I only pay attention to the superficial parts of the ocean and don't really swim in it, I still love it. The potent waves that hit my legs when I walk on the shoreline are enough salt water for me! I cannot fathom how anyone could not be completely content while laying on the beach. One of my family's favorite things to do on vacation is to eat at little local cafes along the beach. We love being around the endemic people instead of just a bunch of tourists like ourselves. They seem to have a lot more integrity than a lot of people who I have met, probably because they get to be on the beach everyday! I don't think we have ever met any obnoxious people while traveling to Florida. After little to discuss, the itinerary was conclusive; we would be spending this vacation as beach bums.

Vocab Unit 6
As little girls, the two siblings were always venal towards each other. Sarah and Sophia were each others best friend. They played together all day throughout their youth, running rampant while the babysitter tried to watch after them while their mother was at work. Together, the two sistters were deft in their actions. Some of the biggest premeditated tricks that they played came at the most inopportune times. They pushed their parents to the limits, and at times were unfavorable to them, but all in all they were good girls. They had explicit rules to follow, and though they would push their limits, they rarely crossed the line. As the girls got older, and their childhood toys and imaginations grew musty, the girls remained closer than ever. At the end of everyday, it brought them great solace knowing the other sister was always there to lean on. Their relationship was far from ironic; a sister is a best friend who you are born with. That is what Sarah and Sophia were, and always will be. Best friends.
