This academic calendar shift is sure taking its toll on me. One thing's for sure, when this is all over, I'll be heading my way to the beach for some reasons.
1.) The view will always be breathtaking and a decrease in your stress level is a guarantee. Going to the beach every once in a while is definitely good for the mind, body and soul. Sometimes, there's just this need of being away from the place where the stress is. For someone who lives in the city, a different scenario like the beach seems nothing but paradise at first sight. So never EVER hesitate to ditch that work or THESIS (for a college student like me) even for just a day or half a day. Trust me, it can do wonders!
2.) All else is just fascinating. It could either be something that you have seen before but not always. Moreover, feeling the sand under your feet can be quite relaxing, don't you think? With an estimated 100,000 - 200,000 exteroceptors in the sole of each foot, walking them over those tiny grains can be stimulating and strengthening for the feet.
3.) You'll be amazed of what you can find. Like this sand dollar and seashell! If you're that kind of person who loves keeping memories then there's no better way in remembering a place other than a free souvenir. It's free gold, my friends!
4.) It keeps you moving without even trying. When the water is as clear and tempting as this, I doubt that all you'll ever do is stare at it. A liesurely swim isn't the limit even. Going back to reason # 2, a good walk by the shore under the sun is nonetheless a good idea if you don't mind the tan.
5.) Or it can make you do the craziest things. Like cliff diving even if the pool is more than seven feet deep.
Sometimes it just feels like you're in another world. Even the people whom you are with at that time will seem so much happier. No matter what time of the year it is, the beach still has its magic.
