Adventure is in my blood. And I had been considering how I was going to celebrate my high school graduation. I didn’t just want a small __26___ in the backyard.

I took out ___28___ and drew the 1,500-mile route along which I would be ___29___ from the northernmost point in Norway to the southernmost section of Sweden. When I ___30___ my plans with my dad, he ___ 31___ as I thought he would. Because I get my adventurous ___32___ from him, he was all for it.

     I had only been away from my ___33__ three days now, but there was an inner ___34___ going on inside of me. Part of me was homesick and doubting whether I ___35___ could make it. The other part of me was ready to ___36___ to myself and my family that I could do it by myself.

    As I listened to my ___41___ artists on my MP4 player, I pedaled (踩踏板) with my feet. There was ___42___ around me for miles. ___43___, that wasn’t entirely true.
