Being at the shore of the beach is my special place. And not just any beach. Ko 'Olina Beach Park. It's my comfort zone. My safe haven. My special place.
It began with a difficult assignment I was assigned with and a stressed brother 2 years ago. My brother wanted a family bonding day so being the tight up person I am, I disagreed and outed myself out of the group trying to finish my four page essay that was due tomorrow while they sat in the living room suggesting ideas. Not even five minutes later I heard loud 'okays!' and 'yessss!'. But I just minded my own business until I felt stares burning into my back. I turn around and I see them looking at me. They knew I knew what they want so I just gave up thinking that I could actually go with my plan and staying home to finish my essay. So I just upped and shoved spare clothes with a towel in my blue tote and brought my backpack with me too. Right when I finished I heard a car horn beep signaling that I should hurry. So I ran out of the door and jumped in the car and we were off.
When my dad was content with the parking he got, my parents, sisters, brother and I flew out of the car to grab the stuff they packed and the picnic basket. But I just wanted to finish my paper so I just sauntered off looking for a table for us. It was when I saw a glistening sparkle in my peripheral vision. I immediately turned to my right and see rocks built up four feet off the ground and the ocean waves crashing and colliding together. The waves were so entrancing that I felt calm and relaxed so I put both my bags on the table and ran towards the scenery like a cheetah ignoring the calls that were seeming to sound far away as I kept running. Climbing and stumbling over the rocks until I got to the edge of it.
And there it was. The most amazing scene I have scene in my thirteen and a half years of living. Its amazing what the sun and a body of water could do when being together. You hear things like hating the sun because its too hot or loathing the water because its getting you wet. But when both the sun and water being pulled together its like a never ending dream that keeps you intact with nature. It clears your mind like a memory destabilizer and keeps it that way until you look away from it. All those worries and stress you had were all gone. I didn't even have one single drop of memory of my project. And I liked it that way. So I stayed staring at the waves, sun, and the clouds over head. Leaving my family to socialize and wonder what in the world i'm doing.
It was like that until the sun was almost gone and my brother woke me out of my trance and back into reality saying that they packed up and was just waiting for me to get in the car. As soon as we got home, I ran out and went into my room not helping them carry out the stuff we brought completely and utterly intoxicated with the view that wouldn't get out of my head and started on my project once again with a clear mind
