What type of home do you live in and describe your family life.
What transportation do you use?
What type of food do you cook/take out?
What is your prized possession?
How do you communicate with others?
Who’s in charge?
In ten years, it is impossible for me to know who will be in charge. Every four years in the US, someone new runs for president. So, since nobody can predict the future, we really do not know who is going to run our great country. But, in my opinion I believe that Chris Christy should run for president in the next election. He is a very wise politician and I believe he could be a very incredible president.
What kind if citizen will I be?
I believe in 10 years I will be a very helpful citizen. I will be the type of citizen who helps out in the community in any way I can. I will help in community service and always make sure I can somehow be involved in helping others in any way I can.
Will I vote in 10 years?
In ten years I most definately will vote in elections. I would like to be a part of the future of our country so in order to achieve this, I believe voting is very important.
How will I make a living?
I believe that when I am older i will make a decent living. I dream of someday working unt he field of astronomy. The stars and the universe itself interest me very much. Very much like Stephen Hawking does, I love to study space and our enormous universe that we call our home. I find it amazing, The concept of space and time. The way everything in our universe somehow perfectly works out to exist.
Where do I live? Region?
When I get older, I would like to move to North Carolina or somewhere besides New Jersey. Now, in ten years I will only be 24 so I don’t believe I will leave the state by then. So, in ten years I believe I will be in college studying to work in the scientific field, and most likely living in an apartment.
Describe environmental factors of my town.
The environmental factors of my town are actually very different from other places on this earth. In my town, there are many trees, lakes, rivers. Basically, I live in the pines. There’s many pine trees, pine cones pine needles. There’s practically every sort of pine that exists. There’s grass, flowers, rain, snow, heat, frigid air, oceans, trees. The environment around my town vary in seasons and often varies depending on the weather.
Why do you choose to live in this region?
I choose to live in this region because like I said, in ten years I am only going to be 24. So, I’m going to be in college and I’m not going to be trying to find a permanent home of a family yet. So, by that age I won’t be trying to look for somewhere else to live besides New Jersey.
Educational background (school, degree, major, apprenticeship)
My educational background hopefully will be bright when I am older. The schools I would like to attend would have to have a decent science program. I haven’t exactly studied those schools yet, up but I know they also must have connections to be able to use a telescope. But not the sort of telescope that anyone may buy at a store, but the kind that can see so many other galaxies and extremely far away. Those kinds are referred to as super telescopes.
Type of home and family life.
The type of home I’d like to live in is a modern household. I’d like to live in a two story home with at least 4 bedrooms. I never know what sort of house I will have because of the fact that I cannot see I to the future but a house of that sort would be wonderful. When I get older, there’s no doubt that I will grow a family. I’d definately like to get married and have children. Preferably 3 children to be exact. T me, it does not matter the gender of the children but it’d be very nice to have 3.
Transportation
The transportation I will use will most certainly be a car. I don’t see any other sort of transportation and I do not believe that there will be floating cars and such in only 10 years.
The food I will cook/ takeout
I am not exactly going to be extremely picky about what I make for dinner or takeout. I only will have a few rules. First, there is only a little junk food, if any. Most likely I won’t even buy it just like my mother does with my brother and I. I probably won’t even take out often. Maybe only about once a month or so. I will definately make healthy food at home, and my family will certainly be eating Italian food, because after all we definately will be Italian.
Prized possession
In ten years my prized possession will definately be my grades at school. They most certainly are my future so they are very important to me.
Communications
When I am older i will most likely communicate in an immense number of ways. I know for a fact that I will use Internet connections such as twitter, instagram, Facebook, and tumblr. Also, I will use my cell phone for communication and any other communication that will be invented in ten years.
Obviously, these are just assumptions of what I want my life to be like in ten years I really do not know what my life will be like by then
