People should care about people who around them. People or I can say your friends who are telling you about what is strange things of you that are way you can act better. I care if people like me or not, because your life is people who around you in house in school in society and etc. nobody is complete that’s why you need to care about what’s people think about you they like you or not. Sometimes you have to work with them or business. In this cause if they don’t like you, you going to be looser.

DARK FOREST
Last summer a group of teenagers wanted to go to Van Lake for vacation. Their names were martin, Kenny, Denis and Jale. On Saturday morning they left their city. Firstly, they had to pass through the forest to get to the lake. However they did not know the way around the forest. For this reason, they stopped their car before entering the forest and they search for someone to ask how to get to the lake. Finally they found a house and they walked toward the house. They knocked on the door but nobody answered. When they turned back to the car, they were surprised to see an old man in front of them. He had long hair and long beard. Although he was very ugly but, he seems very kind. They asked him how they can pass through the forest. He explained the way they understood and they wanted to try this. They thought that they would find the way very easily. However they lost their way a few hours later. At this time they wanted to separate into two groups. Because they saw two paths and they had to try the two ways to find the correct way. Martin and Denis went left side and the other went to the right side. One hour after separating Martin and Denis met a strange man who was a ranger. They wanted to ask something about the way but he did not ---. He was young strong man, but he looked very nervous. He just told them to go out of there immediately. They were really scared because he looked very scary and he had axe in his left hand. After they left him they continued on their way for a few minutes and suddenly they saw two dead people. They recognized them easily because they were their two friends. At that moment they heard a sound from back side. When they turned they saw the ranger in front of them. They tried to escape from there but they could not because after few minutes of running they saw the old man they tried to explain the story but he looked very crazy and he carried a rifle. He pointed his gun at the teenagers suddenly everyone heard loud sound like an axe. The old man felt to ground. They turned around and saw the ranger. He saved their life. When they tried to say thank you to him he disappeared suddenly. They did not understand until they arrived at police station. After they entered through the door, they saw a picture. It was the ranger‘s picture. They were surprised because when the police officer told them this man died 100 years ago.

Team sports and single sports have some difference and similarity, in context basketball and racquetball. Bothe of these sports you need to play with ball. But in difference in basketball its team work but racquetball has one player. Some people likes single player more than team work but they are in misstep. Because all pressures are in you when you are in sports which is has single player. If you lose or did any mistake the reason is just you, but in team sport like basketball with team you can help each other and make better team or nobody is reason of losing its just team mistake. Basketball players using their bodes more than racquetball player such as they run more in basketball court or they using hand for durable or throwing the ball and they use legs or running faster and jumping, but racquetball player using hand more than legs. They also use legs but not too much because the racquetball place is small. Racquetball match is better than basketball match because you player can’t see the spectator so he or she can play without any streets. However in basketball match it’s hard when you have too many viewers there is some pressure on you. In other hand racquetball is cheaper sport than basketball. If you want to just start playing this sport you just need a wall and racquet and ball and its going to cost you just 30 bucks or less. But for basketball you need basketball shoes for sure because it can be very dangerous if you play with regular shoes and medium price for basketball shoes is 70 or 80 bucks unless you need basketball its going cost you more than $30, but racquetball is just $3. The general thing that you need is basketball ring it’s hard to find outdoor.

In- in -out burger is better than McDonald .it has cheaper price and better quality and that’s real hamburger. In-n-out is chipper by two dollars you can eat hamburger or with 2.50 you can buy double hamburger, but McDonald meals going to cost you more than six dollars with this amount of money you can eat two lunch and one dinner in in-n-out. Everyone’s knows in-n-out use fresh meat and their kitchen is open you can see who it’s clean and how they going to cock your meal. And French fries they make from fresh potato. You can feel your meal is fresh tasty natural taste. The third reason why the in-n-out is is better than McDonald, is hamburger culture. I think McDonald or other fast food restaurants are getting far from hamburger they add to many thing too it and they change the way how it should be. In-n-out serve you the real hamburger.

A Person Who Made Difference
Saddam Hussein made a bad difference in my life. We lost our home when I was three years old. My siblings were teenagers so the war affected their minds and feelings more than me. It was difficult to start a new life in a new country. One month after the war started, we went to Iran with car and we left other cars and house with furniture. The second reason why that person made a bad difference is that my siblings were teenagers, so the war affected their emotions and feelings. It was hard for them to lose their friends and they should find new friends. The last reason is immigrating. Normally, immigration is good, but in our situation, it was bad, because my family had to live with new people and a new culture. War is always bad for anyone. It is possible to lose everything in war, and that war changed our lives. In conclusion, Saddam Hussein affected my life in a negative way, and I will never forget it.

First it is impossible to lose 10 pound in two days, but I think it depends on person there are different people in the world. Someone maybe get 1pond with one hamburger someone can get 5pound with one hamburger.
If you want to lose 10 pound in two days you need hard exercises. Running is the best exercise for losing Weight; you can’t loss 10 ponds with regular running unless you run every day more than 6 hours or 50miles, if you got tiered you can walk to refresh your breath. You have to careful about what you eat in these two days. You shouldn’t eta any fat such as chocolate cake or candy, no raise and bred and…

Advantages Of Being Single

Being single has many advantages, such as better relationship with your family, you aren’t responsible for another person, you don’t need to tolerant with other habits and last one is I’m Gregarious person , so it’s hard for me to be with one person until tomb.
When you get married you have to take care of your wife and your kids. You don’t have enough time to visit your parents. They grow up us to help them when they get older, if I don’t help them who want to take care of them? Second reason is sharing habits. I don’t like to deal with another person’s habits. For example you likes house with green wall, but your wife wants blue wall with pets in house, if you have allergy from pets what’s going to happened, yes anger and argument. Last reason is gregarious person. I think nobody wants to eat pizza every day or hamburger, I mean I don’t like to see same face as I see every day. I like to meet new people. If you see same person after while you going tired from each other and then start argue. Sometimes these argue end with diverse, if you have child on that time the person who take more harm is child.

Before 2000 years ago they were people called Celts .they were lived in what is Ireland, UK and north France now. Their New Year was in 1 November, and they believed a day before New Year death and live become one. The name of Halloween came from Christian church. They also believed in Halloween night spirits of death became on earth and they worried if spirits of evil would hart them, so they wore costume of evil or ghost because spirits think they also were gouts so they don’t hurt them. The tradition of Halloween was carried to America by the immigrating Europeans people. These days Halloween is not usually considered a religious holiday. It’s also fun day for children. They dress up like people thousand years ago, but they don’t worry about ghost and they go knock the each door and say “trick or treat”, and house’s owner give them some candies.
