The Loading Screen
Over the past year, I have gotten into building up my video game collection. I downloaded every single one of my favorite video games from when I was a kid all the way up until now. That ranged from ps2, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Gameboy, ps3, and ps4 games. It was nostalgic to play all

The Junkyard
They say that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, well that is especially true in a junkyard. Back before cars were more complex to work on like they are now, junkyards were a lot more common. When people had a broken part on their car, instead of ordering a brand new one, they would

The Iceberg
An iceberg is defined as a massive chunk of ice floating in the ocean. It was once part of a glacier, but it broke off, fell into the ocean and floated away. Now, only a small part of the iceberg is visible above the surface of the water leaving the rest of it to our

To counterfeit means to imitate something authentic, with the intent to steal, destroy, or replace the original, for use in illegal transactions, or otherwise to deceive individuals into believing that the fake is of equal or greater value than the real thing.

I love watching boxing highlights of Muhammad Ali. He is regarded as not only the greatest heavyweight boxer the world has ever seen, but also as one of the greatest showman that ever lived. No one, even to this day, could captivate a crowd and fill the air with as much life as Ali did.

The Magnifying Glass
A magnifying glass is a very unique tool. When light rays from an object pass through a magnifying glass, the convex lens bends the rays so that they converge and create an image in our eyes. This essentially tricks our eyes into seeing the object larger than it normally would be. Wherever we focus the magnifying glass, the bigger the object appears.

The Diamond
A diamond is defined as a precious stone consisting of a clear and colorless crystalline form of pure carbon, the hardest naturally occurring substance. It not only looks awesome, but it is a rare mineral that costs a lot of money based on its value. When I think about the value of diamonds it also

The Door
In many cartoons, there is a famous chase scene with a bunch of doors lined up side by side down a hallway. One character would open a door, run through, and come out on the other side while the chasing character followed. This cinematic technique would create a loop of characters running through doors until

The Gravitational Pull
In college, I took a couple of astronomy courses and I learned about how planets, stars, and moons interact with each other. Something that stood out to me was the importance of gravity. Gravity is the force by which a planet or other body draws objects toward its center. It is what makes things fall,
