View from my dormitory at Discovery Bay.

The light shines into my window, as I lay on the upper level bunk bed in my PJ’s. As I begin to regain consciousness I hear, at a distance, the crystal clear waves crashing onto the beautiful Jamaican shoreline. I hear the lush green leaves stirring in the wind and the mildly humid salty air enters my lungs as I sit up on the mattress. Even though it’s already Day 4 of this adventure, the scenery and the pleasure to all my senses that this view invokes is nothing short of priceless. As I sit, I stop and think to my self, although the days are long, so long as the food is good, the professors helpful, and my classmates funny, this will undoubtedly be a trip to remember.
