My favorite game as a child was a card game. The game is called War, it is a two played game, to play you spilt the deck in half, and each player layers the top card on their pile, the high card takes the win, if both cards are the same value this is a war, in which case each player lays two cards face down and one card face up, high card again takes the win. The game is played until one person holds the whole deck. This game literally can go on for many hours, and that is why it was my favorite. My mother and I would play War all night long and sometimes we would even play with two decks of card to make it last longer. I loved the game because it is based on luck of the draw but is still somehow competitive. Even to today I enjoy a good game of War.

A Hairy Book
I am not certain that something some else has written has the power to change my life; however there is one series that a concept managed to open my eyes to the closed mindedness of others. When the Harry Potter series by JK Rowling came out I was young and the series defiantly interested me. I enjoyed the adventures that the book presented. I did not find the readings themselves to be life changing; the experience that changed me was when my younger cousin approached me and told me “You know you are going to Hell for reading that”. Now it was not the “revelation” that I would be “Going to Hell” that I was shocked by, what shocked me was the fact that this young child was being taught that reading a book would send you to Hell. This experience opened my eyes at a young age to the closed mindedness of many people.
The significance of megaphones
Nowadays, a single day is not passing by without at least one or two fire accidents. A number of people are getting killed and wounded by these devastating fires. This necessitates the need for fire fighters. They assist people in such emergencies and guide them out of danger. They play a very risky and crucial role in fire incidents. They are well-equipped to safeguard themselves and to save the lives of innocent people. One of the vital instruments they possess is the bullhorn megaphone which is very much crucial in fire incidents. They help to make the people aware that the fire fighters have arrived and there is no need to panic. It would also help to detect where different people are trapped. It reduces the situational panic to an extent. In such a way, they play a crucial role in rescuing people from fire accidents.
Television
Personally I do not like television. I find it to be brain numbing and pointless. However if I am in a place where I need a bit of distraction from life I will opt to watch a sitcom, because at least I will get a few laughs even if I am wasting my life in the process. I feel like America is producing anything with “Baloney” value in attempts to keep their citizens from actually conjuring their own thoughts and ideas. In conclusion I watch the least amount of television possible so that I can keep my brain active and alive.
$500 Shopping Spree
I if had five hundred dollars that I had to spend at a mall, I would take this opportunity to visit the Mall of America in Bloomington, MN. I would arrive as soon as the open and spend the whole day going to all the attractions and shows that they have going on, such as A.C.E.S. Flight Simulator and the Amazing Mirror Maze. Then as the day winds down I would spend the evening at the House of Comedy, to get just a few more laughs. In a world where we are forced to grow-up as soon as we are born, I take as many opportunities to experience as much “fun” as I possibly can. So if I have to spend $500 at a mall I would spend it all on the attractions and experiences available at the Mall of America.
My life would be fulfilled one very soon.
Yes, I believe that my life is a fulfilled one. I am right now doing what I wanted to do. On one side, I am a teacher and I am very passionate about my profession. On the other side, I love to write. Hopefully, my ambition to be successful author and writer will be fulfilled very soon as I am striving hard on this path by being very disciplined. Though I am a published writer, I am yet to earn a lot of money which I dream of by writing articles which I am so passionate about. Also, I believe my life is a fulfilled one as I am blessed with a naughty yet smart comely son for whom I honestly dedicate my life to.
The most influential person in my life
The most influential person in my life is none other than my mother. She has the quality of working hard come what may. I try my level best to instill this habit in me as it is the essential or main element towards success in life. She is also a religious person and equally try hard to be religious by reading religious books as much as possible. She is a passionate home maker who is perfect in cleaning and cooking. Though I am not as perfect as she is yet I believe that I will be far more perfect in these things soon as I feel that I am highly influenced by her positively in these aspects.

I would visit Mecca, if I could travel free.
If I had the opportunity to travel for free, I would first and foremost consider the option of my visit to Mecca in Saudi Arabia. This is one of the most historical places and also a holy city for Muslims. I would love to visit Mecca and pray there as the Muslims from all over there world gather there as a part of their rituals to perform hajj or umrah. I would also visit all the historical places of prophet Muhammad. Next, I would visit Madinah, a beautiful, calm and quiet city. I would also love to feel the warmth of the people out there in Madinah as they are known to be very cultured and polite unlike the people of Mecca.
What I would do if world came to an end in 1 hour
I sincerely pray that world does not come to an end in an hour’s time. Incase it did, I would spend that one hour in a most appropriate way thanking my creator for all the good things He has done for me. I would read Quran at least 40 minutes of the day and dedicate my life only to God. Another 20 minutes I would hug my 4 year old son and cry deeply asking God to reverse the process and that the world did not come to an end so that I could live a highly principled life hereafter. I would plead to God that every minute henceforth, if world did not come to an end, I would remember Him and be the most kind and generous person on earth.

Every 6 months the battery in all aico smoke alarms in a house, or business should be changed, even if it is still properly functioning.
