  14. WESTEST 2 Online Writing: Administering the Assessment The sun glistened on the crystal clear blue ocean water, creating a dazzling array of sparkling flickers on the waves. The dolphins shot up out of the water like a professional basketball player springing up to grab a rebound, and the seemingly infinite beauty of this paradise stretched far beyond the horizon. Looking left and right, all you could see were scantily-clad young ladies relaxing on the beach, buff men surfing and playing beach volleyball, and little children playing in the sand. This appeared to be an ideal place to take a family vacation; at least, that’s what the virtual tour on the Seaside Resort’s website made it out to be.“What do you guys think?” I said. “Sound like a good place to take our summer vacation?” In unison, my parents replied, “It’s beautiful. That looks like a great place to spend our summer.”“Okay, so it’s official. Pack your bags and let’s leave first thing in the morning,” I screamed with excitement.Within the hour of finding our vacation destination on the internet, I was packed and ready to go. It was only 6 P.M. I thought to myself, “What am I going to do till it’s time to leave?” After contemplating some possibilities, I decided to browse the World Wide Web once more just to see what other vacation spots there were; you know, just in case my parents would decide they didn’t want to go to the Seaside Resort for some reason.
