 Something i have always been curious about has got to be if communication was free, how would the economy change? Especially for people who live outside of cities. Things would be way easier than how it is now, because if you think about it people can live wherever they want, without the worry of being far from help. Most people do move to the countryside or up in the mountains to get away from people but the worry of calling for help won't have to be a concern. People will be talking on their radios or phones everyday or maybe it will be quiet because people talk too much. In the end i think free communication will be a great idea to have and it's why i'm so curious about it. 

My most special holiday memory would be the time when my family would all get together and all the kids in the neighborhood would also go to my house. When I was younger I would hangout with everyone in my neighborhood, it was just one big group of kids playing around. It would be high schoolers, middle schoolers and elementary kids, at the time i was in an elementary school playing with people older and sometimes younger than me. On Christmas eve, everyone decided to go to my house because i had a ps3 everyone would bring their controller and we would all play and take turns. For me that would be the best holiday memory because i would be with family and friends all at once. 

   The best gift I ever received was moving to a new house. It wasn ´ t my gift but my parents decided to move during christmas and to me it was a gift, because I got my own room. We lived in an apartment that was 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms, and it was me, my sister and my parents. I had my own room but it was filled with things we didn't use so whatever my parents didn't want in the house they would put it in my room. When we moved i got my own room, i could decorate my room and paint it to the color I like. The house came with 6 rooms and 3 bathrooms, it's a big house for no reason, we don't even use the extra rooms, they are just guest rooms when family comes to visit. The house is the best gift I have received. 

 A song that brings back a specific memory has got to be the song from the first ice age. The song goes like ¨ on my way, on my way ¨ I just remember watching it with my dad a lot and getting zaxby's. Those were the best times because i was a little kid and all i had to worry about is what am i going to watch next and what am i going to do for the day. I know what I used to order, it was a 4 chicken finger plate and a cookie with white chocolate pieces. Back then I remember that the fries were more seasoned and tasted way better with their zax sauce. That ´ s a song that every time I hear it, a memory pops into my head. 

 Something i believed as a child was that my dad was Santa Claus and that he would bring my family presents. When i was a kid i would believe anything my parents told me, even when they told me i couldn't fly, i tried it and failed. One day on Christmas night at midnight, i heard someone with boots walking around my apartment. When i went to go check it was my dad in a Santa costume, he even played along when i asked him questions. I only found out he was lying when he told me when i got older, but i liked that he even made me believe the things all children want to believe. 

 A time i couldn ´ t stop laughing was when in 6th grade at the lunch table the funniest thing happened. I would have a cafe table filled, a bunch of friends but not that many just like half a cafe table. We would all sit together because we all had the same lunch and we would always do dumb things, but that one day was the funniest. One day at lunch i started flipping a milk carton, trying to make it land and then the whole table starts trying. One of my friends couldn't land it so he started to get mad and he got so mad to the point where he smashed the milk carton. Milk went everywhere and on everyone at the table, it was so funny i didn't stop laughing when the teachers yelled at us. I don't regret laughing because it was the funniest thing to happen at school. At the end we had to clean the cafeteria for the rest of the school year, but it was worth it because we got to skip class just to clean and hangout. 

 A fear I overcame has to be the time I was fright a heights, i still am but i am a step closer. Last year i had to put up Christmas lights, because I said i was an ¨adult¨ to my parents. I put up all the easy lights, like the lights that go on the door, and on the garage. Next i had to do the lights on the roof, which i had to get a ladder to get on the roof. Once on the roof i had to crawl to the egad and put nails so the lights hold up, I kept looking down because that's the only thing that i was facing. After I got used to it, i was not as scared to get on the roof or go on high things.  

An unforgettable meal would be the time I ate wings from a wing place. I will gatekeep the place because its a great spot, and i love the sauce flavor I always get. It is nashville hot and it is great, it has a sweet taste at first but then a wind of spicy hits you. It is a good type of spicy because it is bearable, not too spicy that you can´t eat it. That is the best food I have always tried, I been going there since I been in 8th grade. 

 Something I can´t get out of my mind is boxing, it's just been a thing I wanted to do since I was little. When I was little my brother would always watch fights or get into them. He looked cool when he would have bruises, I always thought they were tough. My parents would hate it, they don't allow fighting because it's not a good career choice and it's not safe. After all my parents are warming up on it because I am doing boxing, and they think it's good for me to know how to defend myself.
