if i could go back in time

If I could choose whatever place to go back in time I think the first place I would really want to go is back in the 5th grade. It was this one time we all went to this one party at this place called Forbidden island. I was with me and my friends Christine, Abby, Hana, Amy, and Celine. Of course Abby’s parents were there to watch us. I would go back to that time if I could.

I would go back to that one party we had because that time we were all really young and all we wanted to do was just have fun. We were curious about everything we saw. And I remember that we would walk all over just laughing together and looking at things. I would choose to go back to that time because that time there was no drama everything was just simple and we never had to think about anything like grades or school at the time. That was just one summer of our 5th grade year. And it was one of the best summers I have ever had. I would really like to go back and just play around like I was a kid again.

I realized that everything was much better and simpler that time. We are all going to college soon and will be separated. Its true that you dont know what you until you loose it. I remember during that one summer we hiked up there. Forbidden is really scary and it is supposedly dangerous. We were young at the time, still kids. But of course we were crazy and ran everywhere we could. It was really fun because I remember there was a rope that you had to climb in order to get up the steps. And Christine was climbing it but she slipped and fell. She didn’t get hurt but it was really funny so we all just went back down to help her up and we just laughed.

We also climbed into this tiny hole. And inside the whole was this really really pretty cave. It was filled with ocean water that was flowing in from a tiny hole at the bottom of the cave. The cave was surrounded by a whole bunch of rocks but it was just really beautiful. I remember we climbed into that hole and in the cave. We stood on top of the cave rocks and looked down at the water. The cave was lit up because the sun was still up so the water was very clear and we could see every tiny little stone that was on the bottom. We all jumped together into the water and swam.

Our parents were back out on the beach cooking hamburgers and meat for us. After we all had dinner we built a camp fire. We just all sat there and talked about the boys we liked and the girls we were fighting with at the time. But of course there was not much serious problems like the ones that we have to deal with now.

Times like that, when mi just with my closest friends not thinking about anything and just having fun in the wild really make me want to go back in time and just stay there. I wouldnt want to change anything because back then everything was perfect in my eyes. I didnt need a lot to be happy. All I needed were my friends and some time out in the sun and I would be satisfied. The feeling of blissful nothingness is really something to enjoy while it lasts. If I could just go back in time for one day I would go back to that day in the summer and just enjoy it.

I would want to go back because first of all we are all leaving to college very soon and I would probably spend all my time working in school and I wouldn’t be able to see my childhood friends anymore. I just want to play with my friends and my family as much as I can before I fly off to another country. Spending quality time with the people you love is really important. And you really dont know what you have until you move away or dont have it anymore.
