If you’ve never been to St. John, you’re in for a real treat. The island is very small at just under 20 square miles, and around 60% of the island is protected as a national park. This means that St. John feels quaint and much less developed than

John Inn is easy to spot because of its brightly colored exterior. It’s the first sign that this isn’t a normal hotel. We were greeted at check-in with a cold rum punch and a friendly smile. The St. John Inn provides five different types of rooms to accommodate a variety of travelers. The standard room is a basic guest room with a queen bed, but they also provide rooms with kitchenettes, and several suites. All of the rooms have a private bath, and are colorfully and comfortably furnished. One note to those who haven’t traveled to the Caribbean before, the water pressure in the shower leaves a little something to be desired. Because fresh water is a commodity on such a small island, this can take a bit of adjusting. That said, the showers are clean and warm. The St. John Inn provides many of the conveniences you’d expect from a quality hotel including WiFi, air conditioning, and a continental breakfast. They also go above and beyond here by providing everything you’ll need for a relaxing day on the beach. The St. John Inn provides beach towels, coolers, beach chairs, and even snorkel for guests to borrow. The St. John Inn does have parking if you decide to rent a car, which is almost a necessity if you want to really explore the island. They also host a happy hour every sunset with free rum punch. The hotel has a small pool in the courtyard, though there are so many gorgeous beaches nearby, it almost seems a shame to use it. Rooms at the St. John Inn start from 180

There is much controversy over whether or not minors should be tried and convicted as adults; most often with cases involving murder.
There is so much to be discovered in our vast world of technology. Scientists and researchers work hard everyday to educate themselves and others on the advances capable of being achieved. There are people learning about new technology, different scientific and medical methods, and most of all medicine everyday. However, there is always a price to pay with hypotheses running their course through experiments, and that is the testing subject. Scientists feel the best choice for such research is to use animals to be tested, and that great achievements in the science world are worth it. Just as these scientists are, testing on innocent animals is completely wrong. Just because they are available for testing, and don’t have any ability to opt out in these experiments, does not mean they are right for the job.
“The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him” (G.K. Chesterton). A soldier is a soldier no matter what. If they fight behind a screen, on the front line, or from a controller as long as they’re protecting this country, the people in it, and the people fighting for it they are honorable. Some think that because one does their fighting from a remote control drone means that they have no understanding of war, and in some ways that is true, but they are still taking someone’s life when they choose to press that button just like the solders on the front line takes someone’s life when they pull the trigger. Both people are fighting the same fight: they love the country they are defending the people in it they just do it from different standpoints. Drones

A Small Place by Jamaica Kincaid presents the hypothetical story of a tourist visiting Antigua, the author’s hometown. Kincaid places the reader in the shoes of the tourist, and tells the tourist what he/she would see through his/her travels on the island. She paints a picturesque scene of the tourist’s view of Antigua, but stains the image with details of issues that most tourists overlook: the bad roads, the origin of the so-called native food, the inefficiency of the plumbing systems in resorts, and the glitches in the health care system. Kincaid was an established writer for The New Yorker when she wrote this book, and it can be safely assumed that majority of her readers had, at some point in their lives, been tourists. I have been a tourist so many times before and yet, I had never stopped to consider what happens behind the surface of the countries I visit until I read this essay. Kincaid aims to provoke her readers; her style of writing supports her goal and sets both her and her essay apart. To the reader, it sounds like Kincaid is attacking the beautiful island, pin-pointing the very things that we, as tourists, wish to ignore. No tourist wants to think about faeces from the several tourists in the hotel swimming alongside them in the oceans, nor do they want to think about having accidents and having to deal with the hospital. It seems so natural that a tourist would not consider these, and that is exactly what Kincaid has a problem with.
I should receive a passing grade in this class because I can write now. Not just an exaggeration, but after another semester of English I finally feel confident that can write. Three of the reasons behind my confidence is I learned, I experienced and best of all I repeated. These three values helped prepare me for what is in store in English 1302 and here is why.

I got dazzled once again by the beauty of St. Martin. St. Martin is undoubted a special place for vacation and one of the most beautiful islands in the world. Among all the places I have visited, it is the most unique. If anybody asks me about a vacation spot, the first thing that comes up in my mind is St. Martin. This is not for it is in my country but for its explicit natural beauty, social environment and the facilities available there.
Many don’t realize that the road to success isn’t so much a road as it is a winding,
