Spontaneity

Spontaneity is exciting, but terrifying at the same time. Spontaneity scares me most of the time. Today I did something that is very spontaneous (along with my friends)- I booked a flight to El Paso because I wanted to check out New Mexico National Park and because round trip flight was only 77 dollars! It all started with a conversation with a friend...

I asked him, "Do you want to climb a mountain?" (tune from "do you want to build a snowman" intended). Then, I suggested New Mexico National Park, remembering how another friend said the national park there was nice. Then I just googled and found cheap flight to El Paso. That time, I thought El Paso is in New Mexico, but actually, El Paso is in Texas while bordering New Mexico and Mexico (how interesting). Seeing that the flight was 80 dollars, I was very tempted to book it, but I didn't know anything about this place so I was wary. I immediately texted a few people who I knew might want to do it. And turned out two friends were down to go and encouraged me to book this trip... and so I did it!

Right after I booked it, I was excited! And then slowly, I got scared because the area did not seem as impressive. However, I also thought that the pictures were taken poorly. Carlsbad Cavern National Park seems cool and also creepy at the same time. I am kind of excited! There's also a state park in Texas- Franklin Mountains State Park. And now, I found Big Bend and it's gorgeous!

P.S. Jurez, Mexico bordering (El Paso) Texas is the most dangerous city in the world, while El Paso is the second safest city in Texas. Isn't that ironic?!

P.P.S. From this, I learned that I could be spontaneous, but I don't really want to. And if my friends weren't going with me, would I still go by myself? In my head, I would like to think I would still go!
