Food Storage


I found this activity surprising because i didnt know that the sprite soda came from Atlanta, Georgia and it travels 1944 miles to come to Los Angeles, California. Yesterday i went to the store and bought two mangos because they were spesive but their are good because they are naturally grow and not been made with chemicals. Something new that i also learned were to words that i had never heard and i didnt know what it meant. One of the words that i learned was Locavores which means people that pay attetion to the kind of food they eat and from where their food comes, they are also people who are commmit to eat food from their homes than food from restaurants or other places. The second word was frankenfood which means that the food is made with chemicals by people and not gorw in a garden or be at a marketplace. Another thing that surprise me about the Granola bar was that it comes from Minneapolis,it is crunchy and it taste good. I didnt know that food travels too much miles to get to Los Angeles and be put in stores so people could buy. If food will stop coming from other place that wouldnt be good because then me as well as other people wouldnt be healthy.

Gas Station Outstage



I imagine myself as a student that went to England and was coming back home the same day that the volcano erupted,that would be cool. I was about to get on the airplane when they announce that "a volcano has erupted and alot of ashes was coming out of the volcano, I would worry because i want to go home but now i cant and many people would go crazy. I think that some economic effects will be that people might not have more money to pay for the hotel to stay more days and to pay for their food.





I wouldnt like to give up things that i really need and use but if we had to do that i would do it but i would never give up my shampoo because thats really part of my life. I wouldnt like to walk and for my dad to lose my his car but if there was no other choice then i will be willing to walk or take the metro. I will be willing to take the metro to save more money for the gas. That woulnt be cool to live life without your necessary things.





OF COURSE IM WORRIED ABOUT LOSING NECESSARY THINGS like water and food because thats really important in our lifes to keep us healthy. YES i think that other people are also worried about losing this important things because NOONE CANT LIVE WITHOUT EATING HEALTHY N DRINKING WATER!!!..I thinkg that if layoff countinues to increase then there will be serious problems for EVERY PEOPLE THAT DONT HAVE A JOB,just to think about this it scares me n worried me alot=/,THAT WOULDNT BE A GOOD THING,OHH NOOO!!!!





Well im planning to not really focus on the things that i want because some of them are not really necessary as the things that i need. I will spend my money more on my needs and stop speding money on my wants. Well i dont really know what actions my family are willing to do so they would stop buying their wants and buy their needs,but whatever they are willing to do i will do that too...

OIL!!!!


Yesterday i was reaserching about oil, which that topic wasent so intersting to me because i only thought that that oil was use for cars but as i read more about it i found out that most of the things we use have oil like for example clothes, soap, shampoo, toothpaste tubes and many other things.


But what surprise me the most was when i saw that medical things where also made of oil like the aspirin and the baby teething ring and thats surprising because babies put that in there mouth.

Supply and Demand

Supply is when people that want to sell goods and service, they can decide how much to sell and at what price do they want to sell it. Demand is when people in a market decide what to buy, and they are also willing and able to buy.

I cant imagine my life without shampoo because i will feel dirty and my hair will look nasty. I would not resist smelling bad, because if I dont have soap I could use the shampoo for my hair and my body. I JUST CANT LIVE WITHOUT MY SHAMPOO!!!!!OhH nOo!!
