Summer Fun


Summer has been in full session, and along with it comes many things to do. One such thing is travelling. I have been fortunate enough to visit many places in one trip this summer. My trip abroad allowed me to visit Florida, New York, South Carolina, New Jersey, Maryland, Washington D.C and Baltimore! =]... and in those places, I was able to visit many tourist attractions, and experience different cultures, especially in South Carolina and South Florida. All in all it was a great trip, and I can't wait until my next one =]
Coming back home from the USA, I was right in time for the weekend before the big jump-up on Kadooment Day. During this time, there are alot of activities going on in Barbados, like the Crop-Over tents and fetes such as Cohobblopot, where the local and some regional artistes come out to perform and showcase their talent. The climaxing event however is Kadooment Day, where some persons opt to jump with a band (dancing while following a large truck blasting music along a specific route), while others prefer to watch on the sidelines. The jump-up starts at the National Stadium and ends down the Spring Garden Highway, and it is a sight to behold to see all of the colourful costumes!
After kadooment, everything basically winds down, as school would soon be back in session. This year is a pretty big year for me as I will be entering university. I've had many decisions to make, and I still have alot more to make in the upcoming weeks and months. All I can hope is that I make the best choices possible for me.
The remainder of my plans are to enjoy the rest of summer, and fully immerse myself in the university experience =]
