Summer vacation in Hawaii

It's becoming that time of year again where everyone wants to be done with school or always itching to get out of work. Since the weather is becoming nicer outside people are wanting to be outdoors instead off cooped up inside. All the signs of summer are starting to have an effect on people.

Since summer is about to begin, everyone is looking forward to their planned vacations or trying to book one at the last minute.

For individuals who haven't had the time or money to plan a trip ahead of time but are now ready to book, they should definitely think about going to Hawaii for their future summer destination

 

There are numerous reasons to why people should spend their summer vacation in Hawaii over any other destination. Hawaii has so much more to offer and everyone will have a great time there no matter what! 

Three summers ago I vacationed in Maui, Hawaii and had a blast! I also have plans to go back again this summer, which I am super excited for, but on different islands this time. 

While vacationing in Hawaii you will get perfect weather conditions, which ranges from 80-88 degrees. This weather allows you to feel warm, yet not too hot where you wouldn't feel comfortable. 

Hawaii is also known for their beautiful landscapes which are absolutely breathtaking. There are incredible beaches to see as well as volcanoes, and many exotic animals to witness. 

  Also, while spending time in Hawaii you are able to forget about the home life and have time to yourself and relax. Hawaii is a place for you to relieve all your stress and to just enjoy yourself. Everyone is very welcoming in Hawaii, no matter where you go, and it's also a family friendly destination. 

Plus, shopping in Hawaii isn't just like any other vacation. There is so much more to see, try on, and buy. There are many distinctive and unique items in Hawaii that aren't offered anywhere else.

No matter what type of person you are Hawaii is a great place for everyone to fit in to. There is fun happening around every corner. 
For most people a trip to Hawaii would be a once in a life time vacation, but definitely worth it in the end. Going on this trip would be a fun adventure for anyone to experience and bring home countless memories.

Ethnic Diversity


While working on the job or attending school, have you ever realized what people you talk to and how you associate yourself with them? Do you hangout and socialize with individuals who have the same ethnic and religion as you, or do you not even pay attention to any of that? 

In several instances people only associate themselves with others who are exactly like them. They don’t let outsiders or foreigners into their group. Some individuals only like and trust others who are the same as them. 




However, the opposite of that would be when people get involved with one another no matter what their race, culture, or ethnic is. When this phenomena happens the event is called ethnic diversity. 




Ethnic diversity is where individuals become friends with people without thinking about how they look, what they
believe in, or where they come from. 



Today, I think that this problem has reduced and is not much of an issue anymore. More and more people of different ethnic groups are getting along and not judging one another based on how they look or where they come from. What truly matters is how good you get along with another person and if you are able to connect with each other.

Social Media & Social Activism

When it comes to engaging myself in an "activism" or "political action" I would have to say that I haven't had the most memorable experiences. I personally don't seem to get too much involved with those sort of things, which I am perfectly fine with. 

However, I have numerous friends that take part in and participate in expressing their personal views on certain political topics that they're passionate about. I think that it's great for individuals to extract their inner thoughts and state what they believe in while conversing over social media.

I think that when people express their views and make a post about what they believe in, it allows for commentary from others individuals around them or who see the post. By getting explanations from other people, you are able to see several different interpretations or insights that you originally never would have even thought of.

Since so many people nowadays post and express their thoughts on social media sites, it’s now so much easier to get in debate over issues on the internet.

I think that by having social media “politicize” and “mobilize” political topics over the internet is a good thing because now more and more people, of all ages, can become aware of this information even when they didn’t mean to.

A majority of our population goes on the internet for several reasons, probably not to look up political matters, but if everyone started voicing their opinions online then it would be hard to miss.
