Snapshot of the Eiffel Tower in Paris





  It is a bright sunny morning in Paris, France. Tourist rush see one of the greatest landmarks in the world, the Eiffel Tower. The screaming, pushing, and the sound of feet rushing to see different things. It is as noisy as a bumble bee! You can smell all of the aromas of the different foods in the air. This makes you want to sit down and get some water or a sweet dessert. As the sky starts to get darker the people go to their rooms to get ready. What are they getting ready for? They are preparing themselves for nightime Paris.


A few minutes before its completely dark everything gets silent and still. Then in one fluid motion the city lights up and its beautiful. It's like a mother seeing her child smile for the first time. People pour into the streets looking for pubs, resturants, and the most romantic spots to spend time with the one they love. Some people climb to the top of the Eiffel Tower, but when they get to the top they have to stop and catch their breath. Once they get their breath back they finally look at the breathtaking view of Paris. It makes people think of tasting a new dessert. All the flavors explode on your tastebuds. This is just like that but instead of the flavors exploding, the lights all dance together to make one big masterpiece. It is the most romantic spot in the world. What do you expect? It is called the City of Love.

Dreams

   In the book Of Mice And Men, Lennie and George have a dream. Their dream is to have their own piece of land. They would have their own pigs, chickens, bunnies, and cows. Some might not think their dream is realistic, but i do. I think this because a lot of people want to have their own things and to be their own boss. What they want is to be farmers which people in our time period are. They work for themselves and its what they love to do.
   It is very important for people to have dreams for the future because its something that you one day see yourself achieving. For example, my dream is to be a pediatrician. I have always wanted to take care of kids so I choose that for my future occupation. Some dreams lead to reality. When others doubt these dreams they are doubting their ability to make these dreams come true. They start to question things and make different decisions about their goals. This changes their life path.
   If dreams go unfulfilled for a long period of time they become hard to achieve, obstacles are added, or the dreams are forgotten. For example, in the story Curley's wife wanted to be an actress. Her mother kept her from pursuing her dreams so she married Curley. Her mother was her obstacle. Due to this obstacle she choose to change her path of life which did not go with her dream.
   Sometimes it might be better to hold onto an unrealizable dream rather than face reality. It is better to have these dreams during the bad times. It might prove to you that even though times are bad you still have things to look forward to. An example of this is, that even though George killed Lennie he can still accomplish his dream. He can get his own land or start a family if he wants. He should just know that he shouldn't let the bad times keep him from the good times.

My Perfect World

 There has never been a perfect world. If I had a perfect world everyone would get along. There would be no violence. No more wars, loitering, killing, or tripping people just for fun. Okay maybe sometimes (the tripping people just for fun). What I am trying to say is that we would have world peace.

 Another thing the world would have is a space station. Natural disasters have always been a problem for us. With the space station (Station Gumball) that would no longer be an issue. We could live up there for a long period of time. It will be completely electronic and have all fast food. It will also have seasons for all kids being born in there. If people die their names will be carved into a remembrance wall. There bodies will be tossed into the Sun. The generations of people will continue.

 For the ladies, every guy in the world would have to at least have a six pack. It's for the sake of the women race. For the guys, all girls would be beautiful. The girls win either way. The one rule is that after they find a wife or husband that they must create a family. There should at least be 2-6 children. This will be a guarantee that the human race will continue.
