It was the best of times It was the worst of times
The reasons why the quote It was the best of times It was the worst of times is an appropriate quote for high school is that it describes most students entire experience in high school. High school can be the best of times when you get A's on assignments, or when you perform in band, also it could be when you're recognized for a good deed that you did. But it can also be the worst of times say when you fail a test, get caught committing a bad deed, or it could be you getting into a physical altercation and getting suspended for the fight. Hopefully and luckily the good will outweigh the bad. But that is not always the case for some high school may just be one big mess, but foe others it can be a giant success depending how you act and perform. That is why the quote It was the best of times It was the worst of times is the perfect quote for high school.

If I had an unlimited plane ticket for a month
Now if I had an unlimited plane ticket for a month I know exactly what I would do. I would take a complete tour of Europe. I would choose to exploit my ticket by doing this because I always love to learn and Europe's history is amazing. I could learn whatever I want by just looking at random buildings. The history in Europe can be seen everywhere especially in its infastructure. Plus I can look and analyze the lands that my ancestors came from and maybe even find family I did not know about. Also I just plain like Europe and its countries better than the U.S. and the rules in Europe are more lenient than in the U.S . And furthermore I could be exposed to all the different languages in Europe and I love to learn new languages so that would also be quite fun.

My name
My name is Joshua Michael Minick. My names is quite interesting especially when you look up its meaning. When I discovered my names meaning it was like bam my name is awesome. Joshua means "yahweh is salvation" which is pretty interesting. Joshua is derived from ancient Hebrew it is most notably found in the bible. Also Joshua's correct spelling is Yehoshua. Joshua is usually associated with religion. Joshua is most popular in Australia. Now on to my middle name Michael which is like the perfect middle name because it coencides with Joshua. Michaels meaning is "who is like god? Or of god". Michael originated in Hebrew, also it is found in the bible. Michael is a very popular name in a number of countries. Now for the grand finale my last name Minick which is quite interesting, but at the same time boring. Minick is an old German suraname. Minick means carpenter, which means whoever came up with the name was likely a carpenter. So you can picture some guy shaping and crafting wood into different objects thinking hum Minick sounds like a good last name since I am a carpenter. Now that is why Joshua Michael Minick is like the best name ever.

A horse, a cow, or a dozen chickens
If I had lived 2,000 years ago I would choose to have the dozen chickens. The reason for me choosing the dozen chickens is one they reproduce at a fairly good rate. Also once the new chickens have come of age you can slaughter the older chickens for food, and you can still eat the eggs from the chickens. And when you get a big enough stock pile of eggs you can go to town and sell them for a profit, and then buy other goods you need. Plus nothing tastes as good as a fresh egg in the morning. Also they don't need much space so there a space saver. And there wastes or composted bodies can be used as fertilizer for crops that can be planted on the rest of your land. Then you can use the crops to get even more money.

What warrior
If I could choose to be one of the warriors given I would choose to be a spartan. The reason I would choose to be a spartan is that they were the most brutal, and daring warriors of their time. Also know one could match the precise killing ability of a spartan. I think the life of a spartan would be filled with battle, gore, glory, and many celebrations. I think the daily life of a spartan would be filled with a lot of elite training, and also many instances of deboutary. I think if I was a part of that life I would have no problem nor complaints with my actions threw out that life.

Journal 3 people
If I had the chance to invite three people for a beverage I would invite George S. Patton, F.D.R., and Douglas McArthur. Also the beverage we would consume is tea. I would invite these three men to this meeting because they're the most interesting people in history to me, also they were some of the best battle tactician 's of there era. The topic we would discuss during the meeting is what was the U.S.A's preperations for WW2, also we would discuss what was the U.S.A's plan of action threw out WW2. And we would have side topics on each others opinion of one another, also we discuss if plans during the WW2 could have been planned with better accuracy. The mugs they would drink their beverages out of would say I hate McArthur for Patton, I hate Patton for McArthur, and I hate both of you for F.D.R.

If I started my own business I would start an American based super-car brand. I would start this company because the U.S. is in need of its own super car brand. So the U.S. won't be so dependent on foreign super car brands. The U.S. needs to ween its self off of foreign super car dependency.
