Compassionate Science

Planning to become a civil engineer, if I were to become a compassionate scientist, I would first tackle the worlds problem of homelessness. Since I am currently living in Los Angeles, there is a plethora of homeless people who wonder the streets everyday, struggling to make it to the next. As a compassionate civil engineer, I would plan to create complexes so that these homeless people could live in. They might not be huge luxurious, multi-storied homes, but they would provide shelter from the elements. In addition to providing a shelter for those who do not have one, I will be also removing the homeless people from the streets, greatly benefitting the city. However, in other parts of the world, people do have homes; however, they are make shift shacks or huts that provide little to no protection whatsoever. To make matters worse, these people live in areas where there is an immense heat or heavy showers. In order to increase their lifespan I would design buildings in those areas that are able to withstand the harsh conditions.

The Future

In the future, 100 years from now to be exact, there will travel by plane will be obsolete. People will no longer have to go through of going through airport security, paying high luggage fees, and waiting to board your flight. All of this will cease to exist because in the future teleportation will revolutionize the world, because people will be able to travel to any destination they wish with just the click of a button. Also in the future, the video game industry will also drastically change, due to the increase of implementation of virtual reality. Playing video games will no longer be just sitting down on your couch pressing of few buttons on a controller. Now the player will actually be in the video game, controlling every movement of the AI character. Also there will be no further use of a controller, because the characters will be controlled by your own motion. In addition to that, in the future people will be able to try a wide variety of food while staying in the comfort of your home. There will be a screen inside every home, which displays the thousand upon thousand of food combinations. Then according to your own individual preference, the user will simply press the image of the food on the screen and it will appear served on your dining table.

The time I laughed really really hard

One time I laughed really, really hard that milk came out of my nose and it caused a laughter chain reaction, with my friends who were present at the time. It happened when I was in the 5th grade and our immature minds found the dumbest things funny. I can't exactly remember what was the trigger of all the laughter; however, all I can remember was the aftermath. It was during lunch time, and one my friends said one of the funniest things I had ever heard at the time, and I had an instant reaction to the joke. The cafeteria was then filled with my laughter and I laughed so hard that the milk I drank prior to hearing the joke began to come out of my nose. That didn't do much to the quell the noise we were making, because my friends began laughing violently soon after. My friend sitting directly in front of me laughed so hard that he actually farted, which just caused us to laugh even harder. We had laughed so hard that we our eyes began to water, and when we finally quieted down our cheeks were very sore.
