Yunsun¡¯s Hudson Diary¡¯
In 2003, when I was in second grade, I came to New York from South Korea. Both my Korean friends and American friends are very important to me.

¡°The inevitable horror¡± as we like to call it, the junior year was finally over! The celebration of the end of the school year was going to be epic; no one will be able to stop us! Amusement parks, wild zoos, non-stop shopping, haunting for the best places to eat¡¦ so many things were on our to-do list.

Nevertheless, our priority would remain the priority: the beach party. Now don¡¯t go on imagining those wild spring break beach parties, where explicitness is the norm. This beach party was in celebration of both my birthday and the end of the school year. I figured that visiting the beach right after the testing week would provide a fresh opening start for our summer.

 

Just like I had expected, my friends were hands down on the idea. As the official date drew closer, our excitement sprang uncontrollably. On the morning of June 19th, we packed our bathing suits and sunglasses, and headed for the beach. The weather was not at its best, but it did not discourage us from enjoying the present. In moments, we would be setting our feet on the soft, warm sand and dive into the deep blue ocean. With this thought in our minds, we pumped the music up a volume and fist pumped the rest of the way.

The weather definitely improved from what it was before. Instead of the gloomy shade and the slightly chilly wind, dazzling sunlight and a nice, settled breeze welcomed our arrival. Only when I felt my feet sinking deeply into the smooth sand, the fantasy-like scenery became a reality. There was no time to waste. My friends immediately took out their cameras and flashed away like there was no tomorrow. We made goofy poses at the camera, and even attempted to take jumping pictures with the picturesque shore behind our backs.

 

Each with a sunglass resting on the head, we split ways into those who wanted to tan and those who were ready to dive into the glistening blue ocean. Joined by few of my friends, I boldly ran to the incoming wave, ready to confront its threatening approach. Without even a time to consider what was to happen next, I let myself be engulfed by the cold, rushing wave.

The last thing I saw before closing my eyes in a shudder was the opened mouth of the wave. Its outer appearance was that of a yawning mouth, but its actual result was comparable to that of a biting jaw of a sea monster. Unable to gather myself in the bit of this hectic encounter, I stumbled while trying to get up. I heard my friends giggle at my silly act, but they would soon face the same fate.

  

After indulging ourselves in the sweeping wave, we passed the baton to the other half of the group, who had started with a tanning session. Following this small interchange, we took out cold ginger ale and settled on our beach towels. The blazing sun felt nice, especially with the droplets of water on my body that had still yet to be evaporated. With my headphones in my ears, I entered a summer daze into the fading music¡¦

  

My sweet nap was interrupted by few, rapid taps on my shoulder. It took my some effort to open my eyes and squint at the hazy figure. It was my friend, Kimberly, who was pulling off a teasing grin. She asked, ¡°Did you enjoy your little nap?¡± and I answered with a nod and closed my eyes once again. With the thought of going back to napping, I dismissed Kim¡¯s comment of, ¡°Then, I guess you will need a good wake-up call!¡±

Unfortunately, that proved to be a foolish decision. Without a warning, I felt my body being lifted up to the air. I made a face letting out a small confusion, and trailed off, ¡°What are you guys doing¡¦¡± The blazing sun was unbearable at this point, so I did not dare open my eyes. My energy had been droned out by the lazy nap, and thus I did not even attempt to beg for help.

In fact, I had not still recognized the reality, and let myself be half-immersed into my daydream. As we drew near the shore, I let out a small yawn and tried to break free. But before I could even finish yawning, they threw me mercilessly into the cold water.

  

The sudden rush of coolness sent a wave of shock through my mind, and I ran out to escape from it. Bewildered and still not able to comprehend what had just happened, I let out a sigh of relief. Despite of my frenzied state, I kept my composure and laughed with my friends. In order to make my pretending even more convincing, I casually mocked my friends commenting, ¡°Wow, typical immaturity of seventeen year-olds!¡± I did not want to give them the satisfaction of having pulled of a good prank!

After this uncalled event, I dried myself and collapsed over my friends. For the rest of our stay, we talked and giggled, having a typical girl¡¯s hangout. At that moment, we wanted to enjoy the vacation to its full extent and forget about our stress and our worries. I grabbed for the last can of ginger ale and popped the can open. The can gave off a short fizzing sound, which sounded better than music to my ears. In the far distance, the sun was already submerging itself into the darkness.

Yes! This was the perfect summer dream.
