Globalization

What is globalization? How does it impact our everyday lives?

Well, to start off, globalization describes the process by which regional economies, societies, and cultures have become integrated through a global network of political ideas through communication, transportation, and trade. Thank you Wiki! In other words, without globalization, we would not have Big Macs. Now I know you guys love McDonalds. I love the dollar menu! Okay, sorry back on topic.

Globalization affects our everyday lives in many ways. From the clothes we wear down to the food we eat, everything has something to do with globalization. Our clothes are not all made the USA. In fact, mostly everything is made from China. Go China! Also, the clothes we eat are influenced from around the country. Other nations mix their recipe with others or just share their own. Without globalization, you guys wouldn’t be eating that amazing Chinese carry out on the weekends.

The USA is based off globalization itself. Different cultures mingle together creating a new one. We even have the first black president. Do not work folks; soon you will be calling me Mr. President. The USA is where globalization shows the most because people from all over the world gather together. Religions also play a major role in globalization. In the USA, we have the freedom to choose our own religion unlike other countries where one is forced to follow a certain view in life.

Overall, I believe globalization is a good thing for everyone; living in America at least. Because I know that Americans take advantage of the poor Asians over at the eastside. Oh wells, sucks to be them.

Sports in My Life

Sports are part of everyday life to some people. To other fat, un-athletic, no life having people, sport is nothing but torture. That’s right fat people, start running and dribbling a ball.

Okay, but for real. The sport in my life is none other than basketball. I mean who is a better athlete than Lebron James? Yeah that is right. King James all the way.  As an American, I believe basketball is the most dominant sport over here. Compared to the rest of the world, where soccer is the dominant sport, most Americans are more hyped about the playoffs. Maybe it might be the Super bowl, but it is definitely not soccer. Only Mexicans in America cares about soccer with their scream of “GOALLLLL”. I prefer the sound of, “OH DAM! HE JUST GOT DUNKED ON!”.

Sadly, I am actually a pretty bad basketball player myself. Even though I am six feet tall, I have no hops and no handles. I wish I was better. Maybe it is because I am Asian. Basketball and Asians do not mix besides if you are seven feet like Yao Ming.

Another reason I like basketball is because of NBA 2k11. That is the best game on Earth. I am not going to lie; I do not even know more than half the teams and players. But who cares about them when more then half the time all I say is LEBRONNNN or KOBEEEEE. There is no need for those other useless players. They can not even shoot right.

This is why basketball is in my life.
