Richard Edward Connell was born on October 17, 1893 in Poughkeepsie, NY, to Richard Edward Connell Sr. and Marrie Miller Connell. His father worked as an editor and reporter for the local paper before beginning his political career. His father’s connections at the paper later proved useful for Connell, as by the age of 18 he secured a job as an editor. Connell later attended Georgetown and, after the death of his father, Harvard. He served in World War I, and during his service he wrote and edited the camp newspaper. Upon his return from the war, he married Louise Herrick Fox in 1919. Connell’s stories were published in both the Saturday Evening Post and Collier’s Weekly. He died in Beverly Hills, CA at the age of 56.

That how I spend my.

My reflection is that the vacation was not that good because I didn’t play too much. In addition, I relaxed only for a short time. However, the good thing is that I had freedom for 2 weeks. On the other hand, the worst thing in this vacation is that it was not long vacation like everybody else, and I wanted to relax more. There was something that made me jealous, and mad and it is that my cousins in Sharjah were going to start school after  one week. That is totally not fair because we also spent long time dealing with rough exams, so we deserve a longer relaxing vacation.

In conclusion, this vacation was one of the worst vacation I ever had, and I hope that the vacation will be longer next time, and I felt happy at the beginning of the vacation, but I was pretty sad at the end of the vacation.

Yes!!! My vacation has started.

Have you ever faced something long- desired for, but ended so fast? The two week vacation we had was a sniper bullet. I barely felt it! However, I had some fun time and some bad ones, but in total I had a great time. This vacation was an acceptable one, I hope to get a better one.

The vacation was totally filled with intense moments and experiences, however do not think they were good ones... The first couple of days i just simply sat in my favorite warm and cozy seat playing my beloved games for a whopping 4 hours a day?!?! It was fun... Further on through the holiday i started exploring the outdoor, from motorcycles all the way to camping! I thought back then it was a lot better than playing ps3 until i went to Um Al Keewin. There i just sat under the wifi, ate, drank and slept. Also I went with my cousin back there to an IT club to play CS:GO all day ( XD ). I had fun in the vacation and I think it was one of the best ones.

In conclusion, I had some fun time in the holiday and experienced new things but in total i simply... hate it! The holiday went toooooooo, fast! I do not like it! I like long holidays like the summer holiday where we can just simply sit back and relax. For all what I said above I think this holiday was really bad!
