American Dream Essay

     American dreams are thought a lot about when it comes to getting ready for college.  People usually say, "well my dream is to be a policeman," or "my dream is to be a race car driver."  My dream is different.  Have you ever played on a Windows computer?  How about a Mac computer?  How would you like to play on both at the same time? Man, that would be cool!  My American dream is to create such a thing as to have a Windows running system and a Mac, or Apple, running system running all in one.
   
 My process to fulfill my American dream is to get together with both Apple and Microsoft and discuss this idea with them and show them what I will do to make this happen.  What I will tell them is that I need to decide how I can create a running system with both there products running at the same time.  I know what you are thinking right about now.  Do Microsoft and Apple strongly dislike each other?  My answer, I have no clue.  But,  hopefully this idea of mine will bring them closer together as friends.
    
When I have both systems running together, the software such as, apps, games, tools, and other items of that nature that run on the Apple products and the Microsoft products will run either way on this system of mine.  It will run either one because, like I said before, both running systems are running at the same time.
   
 As I dream this American dream, I see myself making a lot of money.  Just like Bill Gates, I hope to become a millionaire performing my american dream.  I would also like to see my popularity and fame rise just like Steve Jobs, creator of Apple.  You know how the old saying goes, it's sort of like the best of both worlds.
   
My American dream is different and very rarely thought of.  Hopefully one day you will see me on the front page of "Forge" magazine as a millionaire. Expect to see a new world of technology because it is coming and it is coming fast.

CC 2 Led Lights

Alcohol abuse. It's a famous thing these days. There is a way to stop that. 23 year old,  Dhairya Dand, came up with the idea of creating an ice cube that can track to amount of alcohol intake someone drinks.  Dand demonstrates how a person drinks alcohol.  There are LED lights in the ice cube that light up:  green, yellow, and red.  Green is when you first take a sip of alcohol.  Yellow is when your alcohol level is rising. Red is when you had enough and to stop drinking it. Also, this cube will send a text message to your friend to warn him or her that your drunk and to drive you home if needed.  It can talk to your smartphone by sending IR signals or infrared signals.   I like the idea of this ice cube because it, in my opinion, will help stop the alcohol abuse.  Here's the question though.  Will alcohol abusers use this product to keep themselves out of trouble?  I do not know if they will or not, but, if I was an alcohol abuser, I would try it to see if it works and if it does, I would probably continue to use it.  Now I am not saying I am an alcohol abuser or anything.
