The Splendor in West Country

My cousin Tess has was busy processing her papers for this particular scholarship in Westcountry. Coming from a well-to-do family, she has no setbacks and snags to worry about, really. And when she asked us to go with her for a check, the initial reaction of the group was of course a big SURE!

What was supposedly an ‘academic’ check turned out to be a holiday spree for the group. For those who are not familiar with the moniker, Westcountry is actually the southwestern part of England comprising the counties Cornwall, Devon, and Somerset. Tess has been dying to experience the Cozy holiday cottages in Westcountry. Perhaps she has been tagged by the infamous “holiday cottages are the lungs of westcountry”.  Oh well, it sure was. Booking a holiday getaway there was indeed the initial step towards a high-end time off.

First stop: Devon. Private country homes in Devon are truly historic. The architecture, more or less, shows the influence of Roman occupation. Considering that the county is rich in relics of prehistoric settlement, its museums are really impressive. One of my cousins, who happens to be a die-hard archaeology worshipper, was talking the entire hop at every museum. Talk about over-talking.

If the balmy climate, picturesque coastlines and national parks draw many tourists to Devon, Cornwall is known for their deeply indented coasts lined with rocky cliffs. With their fine harbors and moist climate, Cornwall is indeed a tourist hub. Family friendly cottages in Cornwall are a bloom, just like their magnificent flower production. Why family friendly? Well, primarily because the cabins, as we called them, are good for family use – both for the small and large ones. Fully equipped and furnished, the entire family would surely have no worries for everything essential for a holiday is readily available. And Cornwall having occupied a peninsula bounded n both north and west by the Atlantic Ocean and on the south by the English Channel, the county is a great place for those who want to experience breath taking views normally seen in TV specials.

I know that would not be the last time in West Country. Because to be honest, it’s like nicotine: very addictive.

the scorching heat of the sun is burning me to the bones. i should be feeling this “burning sensation”, yet, it seems that i am feeling numb. numb from your coldness i think. numb because of your indifference.

DESCRIPTION
OPPOSITE
She is very complex; interests go from visual arts, swimming, baking, to music, books movies, and writing.
She is a simple gal just trying to make the most of everything. Her interests may label her as very outgoing, but most of the times, she prefers being alone in her room.
She is silly, childlike, and hilariously stupid at times; she is into foolish stuffs like talking to her stuffed toys, even wishing she and Hitler were friends.
She can be sometimes serious, most especially when it comes to school stuff and responsibilities. Her being foolish and childlike is perhaps because she is the youngest and the only daughter among four brothers.
She is a goal tender. She knows her priorities.
She is unmotivated and unenthusiastic at times. When she feels she is not doing well with something, she just keeps her goals hanging.
She is very ambitious; her dreams and aspirations range from  publishing a book of her own, to fantasies like going to Musee du Louvre, working for CNN or National Geographic, and owning a Rembrandt.
She is very negative and pessimistic. She will just hold on to ambitions she can attain.
She is very idealistic; she hopes everybody would bother to cross the street and befriended a neighbor. She even wished of discovering or inventing something so she will have something to leave for humanity.
At times, she feels she is misanthropic. She hates humanity for all its imperfections. Sometimes, she sticks on existentialism.
She is a family-oriented person. She is very close to her family, and values it so much. She is very loving to her parents, even to her nanny.
Most of the times, she is off-putting, irritating, and unkind to her family. They will always be there for her anyway, no matter what will happen.
She is sarcastic, ironic, and cynical, and these are reflected in her writings.
Well, she could be positive if she wants to. She still has optimism left inside her.
