Expanded Question:

When and where were you happiest?


I am the happiest when I am on summer break at the beach. During this time of the year, I am out of school and stress-free. Summer is where I can relax, have fun and make memories. The feelings of being with my friends, everyday brings me joy and excitement. The beach is where I am the happiest because it is calming and the ocean reminds me of my childhood. For many years, throughout elementary and part of middle school, my mom, brother and I would go to the beach everyday for the entire summer. These are some of my favorite childhood memories. Also, the beach is calming to me because the sounds of the ocean are soothing. Running barefoot in the sand and swimming are two of my favorite things. During the school year, homework and studying takes up a lot of time out of my day, leaving me with little to no time to do things that brings me happiness. Summer is where I get to enjoy things like the beach and hanging out with my friends. The beach during summer vacation, with my friends is where I am the most happy.
