I chose the alarm because it's an object I see every day and it also wakes me up every day. Without it I would have difficulties waking up. My alarm helps me wake up to school or other places and it's a must-have object for almost everyone. Plus, the noise is louder than a mobile phone making it easy to wake up and not be late for school.

The world globe is a very common object for most people, but for me it’s a meaningful object. The globe is what you use to see all countries and oceans in the world.

A major characteristic that distinguishes the globe from the map is that on the globe you can see all the capitals and big cities in the real rounded shape of the Earth.

The reason why I chose this object is that my brother and I used to spin the globe, stop it with one finger on a country, and try to guess which one it was.

I chose this object because it's something that practically everyone has but most people don't value. However, it's very important because it protects our mobile phones from falling and breaking. Some people decorate their cases with ornaments such as mobile phone holders, neck wires etc... and some people even personalize their cases with their names.
