On the day of October 28, 2061, I envision that the world will be practically destroyed for the United States because I believe that the economic power for us will be very low. Also, I believe that China will be the country that is the highest power because they are already starting to take over the United States economically. Most importantly, I predict that hunger is going to be an even larger problem to other countries because the rate of deaths just unfortunately decreases year by year, to the point in which many more deaths will occur, which will drive our world insane. Also on this date, I picture myself living in three different places. One would be Boston, Massachusetts because I’m a huge fan of the Boston Celtics and I hope to go to a couple of games as I get older. Another area would be in Connecticut because I want to support the UConn Huskies in basketball because I wish to play for them someday. Either play there or at Duke University, which is my first choice, however, it is very far away from where I live. Lastly, I hope to be living somewhere in Florida, such as Miami, because I love the hot weather. I can’t stand the cold! On this date, I predict that I will be retired from the N.B.A. (National Basketball Association) living wherever I choose to, making tons of money, hopefully, at least. Also, I wish to be in close touch with all of my friends from throughout my life because I love my friends. They’re what brought me to the point I’m proud to be at now. I predict that I will be the owner of a Ferrari, that is made the year of 2061, because those cars look amazing. I have one prediction for my teacher that I will someday see him and thank him for all of the knowledge he has given me throughout the entire school year, even though it’s not even close to being over, yet I still learned tons. Then I will wish him an enjoyable life, because that’s what he deserves.

What are some major global issues? There’s many of them, but I really focus on hunger to be one of the main concerns. Hunger is one major issue throughout the entire world. Did you know that about every year, 15 million children are dead due to hunger?  Poor kids, that’s so unfortunate. Now, when I hear that there are hunger problems, I usually think about Africa, since that’s the place that is most common for it, but hunger is found all over the globe! One essential facts an=bout this topic is that 925 million people do not have enough to eat, which is more than the populations of USA, Canada and the European Union combined. (Click here to find more facts) How come this occurs? This may happen mainly due to poverty, which means people that live under poor circumstances and do not have much money. Poverty can happen if people are to lazy and won’t get a job, but unfortunately, some people live under poverty because they have no rights and their government is weak and poor as well, so the people cannot go out and find a way to receive money to buy food. That is why people are donating money and food to countries without that stuff throughout the entire world, to prevent people from dying due to hunger. I hope that this problem could be solved. It would really help if everyone contributed to donating.

A trending current event that is happening in sports is in football. Stanford University’s quarterback, Andrew Luck, is a projected first round draft pick next season for the N.F.L. (National Football League) Draft, where N.F.L. managers pick the top players from college. That is an outstanding accomplishment! Moreover, Luck is the top quarterback in the NCAAF throughout the entire country! And you better believe that all of that is skill. No Luck. Anyways, Andrew is doing so well that many teams in the N.F.L. are failing to win games on purpose, just so that they can receive Luck before any other team does. They are losing because the teams that do the worst in the season before are given the higher opportunity to choose the best overall players in the N.F.L. draft. Andrew Luck must be one skilled football player. Lucky him!
