Goal: to use lots of details

BASKETBALL, basketball is a way of life. When someone says that it means you are a real hooper and you will have a part of basketball in your everyday life and you have real passion for basketball. It could be from playing, watching, dribbling, learning, or even think about. People who think they are hoopers but don't play or think about or brag about to impress people and don’t really get buckets it then it means that ball is not life! They might claim ball is life, but obviously not or they would be on a team or good at it, but there is more to basketball than just the things that look good. Like getting in the gym and working by yourself to get better without bragging about it just do it to make you happy. It’s really apart of your life that's why you say it. It can get really annoying when people say ball is life and they suck, don't play, and don't care about the game. Lots of people play sports to get into school. Basketball has way too many people playing you have to practice like you going pro, but expect it not to do anything for you. That is a few things about basketball, and ball being life.

Every Christmas my family sits around the kitchen and everyone makes there very own special homemade pot pie. This is such A comfort food and its a warm and satisfying food it keeps you fool the entire day, this food brings back so many memories for me because every time i smell it I think of home and what used to be like. For some reason these food always puts me in a better mood so if you or your family are looking forward to changing up the menu this is the perfect choice that will be loved by many.

The different image

               

               In the novel, the absolutely true diary of a part time indian and in "Sorry for not Being a Stereotype" both share some ways in which Indians and many other cultures are stereotyped by their looks. I agree with both novels/articles because there's many cultures that are influenced by media and people. Most people that stereotype normally don't know much about the culture, they only know the image that media and others give them. Indians are known to be poor, red-faced, dressed in Pocahoochie outfits. Indians are known to live in teepees when they actually live in cities just like any other. The image shown by the media is an indian using feathered, buckskin, and beaded outfits, when they were gap and other clothes just like any other. I am Mexican and just like Indians we get stereotyped. People think Mexicans are poor, we live in small houses, we're dark skinned, we ride donkeys, and we are all illegal. Let me make this clear. We own big bussinesses, therefore, we are not poor. We live in big and small houses just like any other american. We definitely drive cars, and not all of us are illegal. My point is stereotypes change the whole image of different cultures. 

Everybody Dreams, but Not the Same

           Some reasons why people give up on their dreams is because of money, family, and friends.  If a person does not have enough money or have good grades in high school, then they can not go to college.  College requires money and good grades, otherwise one will not be accepted into the college.  Moving away from your family may be hard to do, but you have to do it eventually.  Some people decide to never move away from their family, so they never achieve their dream.  Finally, the fear of losing friends can cause someone not to follow their dream.  If you move away from your friends, you will probably never talk to each other again.  Money, family, and friends are some reasons people give up on dreams.

Friendship

My friends and I have many similarities and differences. Since my friends and I are friends, that means we share the same friends. When my friends and I hang out, we do things we all enjoy. I mean yes we fight, but it’s funny when we fight because of how comfortable we are with each other. We can say the most random thing about one another and not get upset. A friend is someone that you can relate with. If you didn’t then you wouldn’t get along too well. Being my friend means you’re nice, kind, funny, and respectful. When you have a friend you should be able to connect with them. If you aren’t alike then you can’t connect. My friends and iI connect, get  along, laugh at each other in a kidding way, and fight because of how much we get along. My friends are different from me by them being in sports. I’m the sporty type, but I don’t put myself out there to get  onto teams and become better at them. I am also smarter than my friends. Sometimes my friends are also rude to other people and I’m not a rude/ mean person. In The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, Rowdy and Junior are still friends because they get along. Rowdy and Junior have been friends for so long that they obey each other and don’t argue. When you grow up with someone you become like them. I believe it is better to have friends like you because if you and your friend are not alike then you wouldn’t have anything in common.

A good friend is someone who is always there for you. Someone who is not fake or judgemental. Like they give suggestions and don't just judge you. You should have a lot in common and some differences also but not to many because then you won't have anything in common. And lastly, a good friend likes to have a good time and are not shy or boring.
