Red, when you see red your heart starts pounding and your veins start pumping as you think of your current crush.  As you see the color red you start having this feeling that you have when your with him/her. As you get this feeling you start to smell the smell of sweet roses and as your mouth waters you taste fresh strawberries on a hot day after spending the day with the one you have strong feelings for. As you are thinking about the one you have feelings for, your starting to get a tingling feeling in your hands and lips while you are craving strawberries. Next you start to hear your favorite song blasting in the background while your wanting to see your crush hug you again as they did when you said bye and as you see the color red, you realize you wish you hadn't said good-bye.

Competition is a major function in our society. Without competition, the sellers cannot have this extra push to sell their product rather than the competitors. Also without competition there would only be one of everything for example soda, if coca cola didn't come around when pepsi did there would be no sprite or cherry coke, or diet pepsi. Competition can have a downside too,  some people can become to competitive and only thrive to be the best and nothing else. That can result in blowing off people by trying to win win win all the time and never stop until you had won at least one game. Sometime competition in healthy because it could be a little friendly game and you can get closer to someone. For example, my basketball team , if there was no competition we would have no other schools to play against and we would not thrive to be the best. With that being said, competition is a major part in our society and should never change.

The one thing that I have took that I have learned in the classroom and integrated it into my nonacademic life is my vocabulary words. The reason why I have integrated my vocabulary works in to my nonacademic life is because when I am having a conversation with someone of high importance to me, I want to sound educated when I  converse with them. Also , when I am trying to argue with someone and I want to defeat them with words, I can just simply remember my vocabulary words and defeat them by saying words they have no clue on what the definition is. In conclusion, the one thing that I have took that I have learned in the classroom and integrated it into my nonacademic life are my vocabulary words.

If I had the responsibility to decide where one million dollars should be spent to improve conditions somewhere in the world I would choose America because that is were I will live forever. The places I would choose for the money to go is to education, charities, and foster homes for the children to decide what they want to do with their individual money. The reason why  would put one million dollars to these three places is because education is the key to life. Second,  I choose charities is because they have done so much for other people besides themselves and I would want to give charities a little extra help for there helpful decisions. Last, I would choose foster home children is because I would want to give the children who problem have no hope left a little push to get them on their feet when they receive the money. In conclusion, if I had the responsibility to decide where one million dollars should be spent to improve conditions somewhere in the world I would choose American  education, charities, and foster homes.

If I had the chance to bring back an item in the early stages of life it would have to be a basketball. The reason why I would choose a basketball is because I love the game of basketball and if I were to bring it back to a primitive time, I could teach them how to play and it could be the main sport in the future instead of football. The reason why I would want basketball to be predominant is because the game of basketball is the most athletic sport that is out there. Basketball players are moving all the time and you work every muscle on your body. From working your legs by running and being in a defensive stance to shooting three pointers or having your hand up calling for the ball at the post. In conclusion, if I had the chance to bing and item back to a primitive time  I would choose a basketball so it could become the essential sport in the future.
