The cooking show she had watched had been replaced by a new episode of America’s Next Top Model without her noticing. Dawn sighed‚ pulled back the woolen blanket and proceeded to turn on the table lamp.

My hopes and fears for the next 10 years Being rather pessimistic‚ I would like to start off with my fears. I guess my most immediate fear is the approaching SPM examination. Though I have always been conscientious and am often among the top five students in class‚ I’m a bit worried about not doing well enough to enter sixth form. This would mean that my parents would have to spend more money to send me to a private college. Even if I do enter sixth form‚ I worry about scoring brilliantly in the

Baldwin‚ in The Fire Next Time‚ has to make the decision of how he will deal with racial inequality and from which side he would like to approach it.

the book The Next Decade written by George Friedman. In the book he give the reader historical details and his predictions of the next 10 years and beyond. I like the historical facts and some of his predictions. However in my need for knowledge without conjecture this book left me feeling bored. The author had a lot of ideas while contradicting himself. In the book‚ Friedman shares his strong belief‚ especially about the United States‚ how the world will change so much in the next ten years.
