This past summer, me and my family did many interesting things. Unfortunately, this also meant that the summer flew by very quickly, and it felt as if school started way too early. Among the many things that I did this summer, the highlight was going to India in late August for two weeks.
My parents and I went on a very brief 17 hour flight from JFK Airport to India on August 16. We spent most of the first few days in India getting used to the 10 hour time difference between the two countries. After a week or so of relaxing and visiting relatives that we hadn't seen in almost 5 years, we went to two engagements and two weddings over the course of a very hectic week. The most memorable part of this "vacation" was getting to see cousins, uncles and aunts, and grandparents that I haven't seen in a long time.
I arrived in New York on September 4, immediately missing most of my relatives and friends I left behind in India. I can't wait for the next time I can go back there, or hopefully some of them can come here to America.

Very nice start, Jeremy! India- how exciting! I can see why you would miss it! Good writing for your first entry.
ReplyDeleteFor the 'constructive criticism' - be sure to proofread for grammar. Try to elaborate on some of your descriptions, too - paint a picture for the reader. Figurative language really helps here.
Overall, well done!
