One Year To Live
If you only had one year to live what would you do in that year? I would do every dangerous thing imaginable. I would go skydiving, white water rafting. Skiing down every major mountain peak and going cliff diving would also be on my list. Visiting every country in the world, and attempting to achieve world peace. Fly a fighter jet, save a life, and space walk. Get a Nobel Peace Prize, walk on the moon and bike with Lance Armstrong. Go paragliding, base jump, use a jet-pack, and fly the Air Force One. Fly in the Air Force One and star in a TV show. If I had one year to live, that year would be very busy

Spring Break
On Easter Sunday I went to my Great aunts house. After the Easter egg hunt, I collected the five dollars, My cousins, sister and I used a taped up plastic egg and an umbrella to play what evolved to eggball. After having repeated unsuccessful attempts to hold the egg together with the little name lable, we decided to go all out and used about half of the roll making the egg at least semi-round.

HIstory
I would like to go down in history for being awesome. You can control how people remember you, by conducting your self the right way. I might remember this school in ten years, but probably not. Other people will remember me for being awesome.

Reflections
The easiest part of the process to be the writing part. I found the hardest part of the process to be the note taking, and finding a good online source. Also, I feel that I did use the class time wisely, except for the first day, when I procrastinated a little bit, but I still finished on time. I believe that I could have made the story longer.

Cheap rental car
Racing down the hill, I try to brake, but nothing happens. my brakes are out and I'm traveling down at 60 miles an hour. I dodge a truck carrying sheep, and almost tip over rounding the corner. I knew I should have gotten the land rover. But instead I settled for the cheaper 2001 model. A vicious honk takes me back to reality and my instincts take over as a screech past a rumbling cement mixer and drift around the bend in the road. I see a mountain trail leading up to a tower with an amazing view, as I rip the wheel over my front tire pops and I flip over. Time slows down and my wife and kids flash before my eyes as my 500 dollar a day, rental car teeters over the edge and I fall to my death.

10 things you didn't know about the civil war response
I was surprised by the fact that after the war i still took a while to give African Americans their rights back. I was also surprised that the war was still very old fashioned even with a lot of new technology
