Over the years, there have been many changes in my attitude to an ideal holiday. When I was a young girl I used to watch a lot of cartoons. If you asked me about my ideal holidays about 7 years ago I would tell you that it was spending all day in front of my computer and watching, for example, Sponge Bob. Nevertheless, I have grown up and my preferences have changed. I'm leaving school this year and it's the last year when I have so much time for holidays. Let's dream with me about absolutely breathtaking holiday.
Since I was 15 I have been dreaming of travelling in Europe.
Imagine yourself on the first day you arrive in German, on the second in Ireland, on the third in France and so on. Every country is like a little world with its own nature, culture, attractions. I wish I could meet my favourite band with a concert in these countries. It is the ultimate dream. Some people claim that five-star hotels, expensive restaurants are the most important part in holidays abroad. I believe there is no evidence to support this view. My ideal holiday shouldn't cost immense amount of money. For example, you can meet your soul mate in the hostel or in an unremarkable cafe you can be fed in hundred times better than in a precious restaurant. I think that the key to a good holiday is a complex of a good company of friends or your loved one and long duration to do everything you have been dreaming about. Personally, I would like to travel globe-trotting the world and I want to start with Europe like I have already mentioned. In every country I want to take a lot of photos and videos to share with people in social networks. So, my ideal holiday must include picturesque places with neo-classical architecture. The truth is that joviality of a holiday plays a big role in your overall impression. Why don't visit some off the beaten track places? Like local circus or mime's show? I suppose everyone should visit unusual places during a holiday to have something to remember.
To sum up, I have told you about my priorities in an ideal holiday. So many men, so many minds. For someone ideal holiday is a voyage on luxury yacht with red and black caviar, for someone it's sleeping on their bed. Dreams are different, goals of holidays are different. My main goals are to improve my language skill and to expand my mind. I hope some day my ideal holiday will come true.
Chewing gum is usually associated with some thoughtless automatic process. Television has recently become like a chewing gum too. For many years it has been considered the main source of information. But in recent years it has turned out in some endless entertainment full of silly commercials and stupid soap operas. Very often people can’t tell one film from another, or one TV show from another because they are so much alike. For some people watching TV turned into the constant switching of the channels. They fail to find what they like so they prefer to watch a little bit of everything which leads to total absence of any integral or useful information. It is very hard to get a full picture of a film when every five minutes it is interrupted by commercials. Permanent blinking of bright colours and a rapid change of images make people lose the sense of what is shown. In the end they just passively watch the programmes as if they were chewing a gum. And when a programme becomes too boring, they just switch to another channel. And the next day people just take a new fresh chewing gum and chew it till it becomes tasteless and then they spit it out ruthlessly. Don’t you think watching TV is the same?
