What is your favorite fast food? Tell me a story about that place. It could be funny , sad, or disgusting.
I dnt have a favorite fast food restaurant but im going to tell about a time i went to McDonald's. I wouldn't consider this story funny, sad, or disgusting i would consider it more ofa creepy story. Well it was a Saturday, a couple of friends and i had planned to go to McDonald's, to sort of celebrate our last day of wimter break. One of our friends and i had walked all the way there to wait for the rest of our friends to get there. while we were there this older guy comes in and sits about a couple of seats from us. Everything was normal until the guy started starring at us in a very creepy way. We could feel him starring at us from far away. About ten minutes passe and then the guy got up to throw his trash away and then he left. The thing that scared me the most was that me and my friend were at a seat by the window. The guy stopped by the window, from the outside, and literal starred at us, for like 20 seconds. I think that is the creepiest thing that has ever happened tome while at McDonald's. Never want to see that guy again.!

Would you like to be famous? Why or why not? What would you like to be famous for? How would your life change?
I think there are both good things and bad things that result to being famous. I would like to be famous because you have the chance to travel the world. For instance i would like to be famous for going around the world to inform people about the dangers of climate change or about keeping our beaches and oceans clean. Thats what i would like to be famous for. The bad things are that if you become too famous it could get to the case were you cant go any were without being chased around by a paparazzi. Thats my own personal opinion on the subject.
